Jesus,has it had much use ? I have a box full of bust motors and pumps,vac motors my fault a couple of time (sucking suds,as the ball float sometimes does not stop the foam,if it`s very bad.
Prob got through about 6 or 7 pumps,2 down to me letting them freeze,getting caught out by the cold.

erm OK, so Will you have the steam pro and never had to replace the end belts? (they go atleast ever 3-5 months) or pump after 300 hour use? or the vac motors after 450 hours? (thats usualy 6 - 12 months use)

I find that hard to beleive unless you used the machine for an hour per week!
I have owned one in the past for 4 years and had all these problems. Its a good machine all the same!

Hi Tony,


Don't get me wrong for the last 6 years i haven't been full time carpet cleaning but i do average 8hrs per week! which works out about 2400hrs! I wish you were closer because i would be more than happy to show it to you! infact anyone who is close you are more than welcome to have a look! I haven't got a problem with any inspection! i have replaced nothing but the trigger on the wand! sorry it will be 6yrs in august as i did my course on 21st/22nd september 2004!

I'm not the sort of person that comes on here to fabricate the truth! If i give advice or answer a question i assure it is the 100% truth! I'm prepared to meet anyone or talk to anyone that wants to question me on that fact! please find my number below

07538 089693

Thanks

Will
