Pool filter?


how 2010...

 

[Jim Martin]

I broke the lid on my devastator...........but the old modified pool filter still screams........

 

[KevinL]

SShhhh, I've got a couple for sale on ebay.

 

[Mikey P]

and wth is with parking in the street?


how rob of you..

 

[Jim Martin]

you can see it a little bit but the drive way has a bit more slope then what I want my van sitting on while my machine is running...

being on the street does not bother me...all the years of driving a cab over it was always on the street ...........

 

[Mikey P]

just how much slope does it take to damage a TM?


( in no way am I referencing Marty with this innocuous question)

 

[Jim Martin]

they always tell you to keep these things as flat a possible...I just look at the drive way....if I am not liking the slope and think my fluids are going to transfer to one side to much I just part it out on the flat street..

 

[dgardner]

I don't know about the TM, but I have a pretty old Sanborn portable air compressor that I pulled up to the outlet on the side of the house to use (about a 15° slope) a while back. Ran for a few minutes and froze completely up. Splash lubed pump. As soon as I heard that screeching noise I knew exactly what I had done. I needed an excuse to buy a new one anyways.....

So you would rather run a extra 50 in hose to be flat than have more hummer suck ? The only issue I ever had with hilly driveways was if I was at a job low on gas the machine woukd not run depending on where the suction tube was in the tank .

correct...that extra 25 feet did not effect my machine....

No grass for the solution hose to burn, why not go straight in?

my vacuum hose reel is in the back....so when I disconnect from the machine on the side...the hose is right where I need it.....

We park on the street most of the time, unless it is too far or a real safety issue. For us it keeps the noise a bit a way from the house (echoing in the driveway makes the noise worse. The. The noise reaches other houses and we have the occasional walk up. ( sometimes to complain about the noise, and sometimes to ask if we can fit them in while we are there.)

Pool filter is way better than no filter!

 

[Wandslinger]

That's sure a purty machine

 

[hogjowl]

You only have room for one cone in that van?

 

[Bryan S. Bennett]

I'm happy with how you did everything Jim and I hate mail men too because they only bring bills and never any checks.

I would want to kick your wand down your throat if I was the mailman though.

Makin me get out of my comfy postal cruiser because I had to walk 10 feet to hand deliver to that mailbox! LOL.

Just kiddin, looks great like the SS570. How do you like it? Wish you would've went bigger or is it plenty?

 

[Mikey P]

bigger?


Jim owned a damn Vortex and never dual wanded with it.


What does he need bigger for? The 570 has all the suck and heat a one wander could ever need.

 

[hogjowl]

Do you still have a helper, Jim?

I have made a few mail men mad at me...sometimes you have no choice.....they do get grumpy when they actually have to get out of there little truck to put something in the box....

Like Mike said...I had a Vortex...I used to to dual wand when I was doing some large commercial jobs..they closed down and so I used it for a awhile and then sold it...but I still stayed with big truck...just a different machine...

I like my 570 set up so much that I am in the process of selling that truck....( had a guy come look at it today ).....once I sell it I will buy another van and 570 and mirror the set up I have now...........

Do you still have a helper, Jim?

yep..he is still with me full time..does a great job on his own...
