the New Zipper SS..

[Mikey P]

Getting packed up for Florida..

 

[Desk Jockey]

Pretty sweet!

Does Erik see them as the replacement to the standard Zipper or are they going to be special use? Commercial like the CX-15?

 

[Erik]

I don't think it will replace the Zipper. You need to keep moving the tool, but it does clean good and fast.

 

[Steve Lawrence]

Man, those are perty. Perfected now, Erik?

 

[Erik]

I don't know Steve. I'm really looking forward to some feedback at M/F.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Just looking which way to go when we get ready to purchase.

 

[Steve Lawrence]

Hey Erik,
Is there room in the Zipper for a spray manifold and the spinners. We could use one, the other, or both!

 

[Erik]

No possible way to make that work. I can't seem to load a picture off my phone. I did it once .

 

[Cleantechsk]

thing of beauty!

Hey erik, could I retrofit the vac hose hook up to my zipper. The hose coming off of the side on mine doesn't work for me.

 

[adamh]

Those 2 are mine right?

Cant wait!!!!

You should be able to loosen the clamp and turn it to the other side. Or do u want a modification?

What happens if you don't keep it moving?

 

[Jimmy L]

How stoopid.............

The hose cuff gets in my way also needs to be lowered down the handle about 6 inches so I don't keep hitting it.

 

[Erik]

The newer vac tubes are 3" lower. Get ahold of me at the end of next week, I may have a fix for you.

 

[Erik]

What happens if you don't keep it moving?

The same thing as a wand if your spraying and not moving. You could get that area wetter or sink a spot, that could wick up. Yes I said could!

 

[hogjowl]

Well ... DUH

 

[Willy P]

What happens if you don't keep it moving?

You aren't making money. cough,cough, ball valve, hack, cough, cough

I will be at Mikey's Fest and will stop by if you will be there.

How is the red Zipper solution line quick connect setup? My #4LG made the little black hose you sent me spring a leak.... Granted it was my fault, I was still getting used to the heater.... My temp gauge pegged at 250° at the Zipper jr... I'm currently using a 45° off the trigger valve, with a strainer and male q/c.... It works ok, but when I get to a wall on my left, it's an awkward angle I need to push at...

Maybe I need to 90° elbow down to another 90° elbow and go from there....

Ralph...you know its there right but you keep hitting it?

Ummm I don't believe Erik can engineer stoopit out of the Zipper.

I have never turned around to use the side with the best clearance.....

 

[rick imby]

I may be a little dense but what is the difference between the Zipper SS and the regular Zipper?

 

[Zee]

Zipper SS is a super spinner. Similar to the CX15

[Desk Jockey]

I agree.

 

[Lyman]

I think I can redrill the 4 holes in the top chrome tube to move the outlet 45 degrees downward instead of straight out the side. I had fun knocking down bottles at a liquor store.

 

[Nate The Great]

I'm pretty good at using just enough hose to do the job without having add more hose just to be able to turn around and use the side with the best clearance... I rather not 25' more if I can help it...

Problems we've had with the hard surface spinners/turbos is the hub that spins (for lack of a part name) goes out frequently
and they're expensive to replace. We have 8 or 9 of these floor tools. We've re-built them but that's a pain. It appears the Zipper uses a spinning part too. Would we have the same difficulties?
