I have two machines, one a semca on which the pump has failed, and a ninja on which I broke the "spigot" which attaches the vaccuum hose. Aa a result I have one machine which pumps but not sucks and one which sucks but not pumps.
Saturday, Monday and Tuesday jobs will have to use both!
Ashbys should have posted exhaust spigot to arrive today, so hopefully Ninja will be ok tomorrow, what a pain!
