You should see my collection of Mosmatic flat surface cleaners.

Did you know I have a triple jetted, twin vacuum port - bought for £475.00 - should have been £1400.00 - brand new!!

Just picked up a twin jetted, single vacuum port from Alan - got this one for £275.00 - think the price on this one is £1050.00, Alan has kept it in very good condition.

Alan - Thank you - pleasure talking to you!

Lee - you've got a small window now to get one bought as I am looking for another two but have run out of money. I have cheques imminently on their way!!!

I love you Lee xxxxxxxxx

Hi Rob

I'm Hi-jacking your post

We are looking for something really really good - HOT Water min 21 ltr per min flow rate, possibly twin operator

Any thoughts - assuming money is no object

[Blast Away]

Rob if I'd have gained any of them I'd of sold them on to you with a little profit!    I haven't got vac recovery.

Rob, do you wanna buy another Thor?

It is only a bit of light hearted at Lee - I know he is after a FSC and I keep getting there before him.

It's all about the bottom line really - what can you afford to spend.

The H & M I bought off Roger was not right, we had to put a bigger pump on it, to suit a two man operation, so secondhand plus the pump was £8000.00.

You can buy a H & M - see Ebay listings for George Podell for about £8500.00 but if they come with the same pump then you are definitely going to be upgrading you've got import & taxes on top of that - Roger would be best on that side.

My next set up is going to be massive flow & 4000psi, with a flow back to tank reducer and then just stick on two hot boxes - Got to be the easiest way round it - probably £5000.00

Don't get into the pressure washing game there's no money in it!!!

Question,

Can you go twin operator without one man getting all the flow whenthe other releases the trigger?

Lee

How much?

Rob

Just getting you excited mate. I know someone with one though if you ever need one, a little persuading with the right offer and he may sell it.

It's one of his many machines. His largest is 120 LPM. All he does is clean chicken shed nationwide. Big money!

He's even got custom made conveyor belts to send grid slats through with turbo nozzles washing them.

I'm not clued up on this but if what I got told is correct I think you can use a K1 unloader valve and it dumps the rest back in the tank.

I am just admiring myself in the polished stainless steel of my lovely FSCs.

120 litres per minute - does he need that much?

What's his business called, website so I can have a look?

I was thinking you could have an unloader on each outlet of the pumphead, but would they need to be specialised unloaders? Or could you use standard ones. In theory, when you release the trigger and thewater flows back toward the pump, it hits the unloader and bypasses the the pump. Hmmm still wouldnt stop the pump poweri g up to full flow though.. there has to be a way.

Hi Rob

We have been very busy these past twelve months, hope it continues through 2013

We have been pressure washing since the beginning in 2010 and did loads in my last UK business.

Mainly on building sites and existing commercial buildings as we do a lot of cladding and facade cleaning jobs up and down the country as well as car parks etc

Mainly using 18 ltr per min cold water machines at the minute and occaisional hire from Trafalgar Cleaning equipment when we get chewing gum removal jobs. They supply karcher trailer mounts HDS 1000 de - which are slow and painful for the lads to use at about 700 pounds a week!

We have just been asked by a university to clean about 18000 sq metres of pavements - covered in Gum and thought maybe its time to invest in something really good.

I have been looking on e-bay and at H&M but keep thinking about buying bits and bobs here and there and building my own - only problem - no time!

Hope you are keeping busy with what your up to (I think we keep missing each other on B&K jobs, if you still deal with them)

Theres no money in anytype of cleaning - but we like to do it anyway  

What else would we do..........

[Rob_Mac]

I have just had a brief look and the description is not to release pressure from the gun end on twin operator units, more to completely release the pump pressure!!!???!!!

Could it be done by putting a splitter on the pump outlet and then having two unloaders directly after the splitter with two gun hoses attached - just thinking out loud!

I've already got one, that's enough for now.

If you do a director search on Lyndon Page you'll see 2 companies he's active in, he has business partners in them too of which they own some other large companies like Ferguson Tractors and Garic( the welfare unit vans you see on the motorways )

The 120 litres is either running various lances or working the conveyor belts. These get set up on the site and water isn't a problem.

That would be the same as two unloader, one on each outlet wouldnt it? I am thinking that regardless of two unloaders, when one operator releases, the pump is going to find the path of least resistance, which will be the other operator still washing. I think im going to ask on the yank forums. Thats the only thing really stopping me from buying any bits yet, dont want a 40/50lpm pump that cant be split properly.

Rob, while I think about it, when one man is using the high flow pump, do you keep it at full flow with the right nozzles? Or do you use a smaller nozzle to bring the flow down for one man?
