I think all none commercial vacs took this hit last year I think.
I've got both  1800 n 1400 motors I bought mine in December it's just a back up vac now in my shed lol. Check ur vac you may have the 1800watt older vac 👍😄

I will mate  thanks  :)
So how do you clean the down pipes with Nilfisk Alto Attix 961-01 Single Phase Wet & Dry Vacuum?
I usually use the front blower with my Nilfisk 30 and its so easy.

I want more power but the same cylinder size - those monster vacs just don't fit in my van so well. Just got rid of my Eastern Trading vac and generator - just too much bulk to lug about for me.

I have heard good feed back about these,what you think Avo?
You can still use the back of it for blowing, and amazing 3000 watt power.

Anybody know where you can get the inlets that go on the side of the vac at an angle rather than the straight on that comes as standard? Like the Grippa vacs have.

I don't think they are - I had a 3600w? ISSA vac too that fell apart - cost me over £500 too, same one Omnipole used to use.

These have 2400 Watts of motor power, so its nearly twice as what i am using, and mine is good, so these should be excellent for high rise building.

Yes, I think they are great but they will not clear a compacted downpipe but then I don't think any will.

The airflow is pretty low on that one for some reason ???

Spec doesn't mean much when you are sucking that Big Grass from inside the gutter, you feel it when you work with machine.
