Flat surface cleaners . . . . useless !
« on: August 26, 2015, 08:47:45 am »
Yes they look good in front of customers, but they are totally useless !    Every time I have attempted to use it, I always end up using a lance to clean where it has missed  ::)roll

What is it doing wrong?

It isnt some miracle tool that will clean every bit of moss and weeds from paving in a fraction of the time as a turbo.

If it is missing 'runs' then thats operator error

My point is it's just quicker to use a lance, unless you have a 30lt + machine ( but would be impractical as you would be waiting around for filling ) !

Wrong nozzles, or not aligned properly. My FSC will clean so much quicker than a turbo, makes less mess, I rarely turbo much now other than edges.

Since getting a bigger machine the fsc is alot more effective.

We've used a FSC for pretty much every job..

Today we used just the turbo and it cut the clean time in half from normally using the FSC.
