Shout out to Jimmy Ladwig from Saiger's (and maybe even a Zipper SS Super Spinner video :) )

Hey Mark, do you find you can control the dry times all right by just dialing down the pressure a little? We'll also want another Zipper this year and I'm not sure if we should get the standard or SS.

We have been reducing pressure down to 800-900 but the Super Spinner is more aggressive and I feel some carpets do take longer to dry over regular Zipper.

I have the older prototype head and new one is just slightly bit shorter and others telling me getting better lift and good drying.

Couple weeks I will have updated lid and hope can validate that is better yet too

Looks hard to use by the way he's pushing and pulling.

Why are Harvard products so hard to get? I clicked on that banner advertising the oxy/enzyme/ delime prespray and called Harvard for a dist close by. She looked up two in my area so I called only to find they only carried a couple things like solvent spotter. Said they would have to order a pallet of the prespray. Asked the lady to look up a dist in North and South Dakota...............none. So why the hell do they buy a banner ad here and you can't find the product anywhere?
Wanted to see what a 45 pounder would cost to ship here. So more than likely I 'll just zip down to the local dist and buy that cti Firestorm powder.

Still I can tell in your video that is awkward and harder to push and pull. I can see how it would be easier on commercial , thinner carpet. But that leaning to push and pull could be harder on your back.

On some carpets it is more difficult. Once you get the initial push of it going, it works for us fine...and I had not adjusted the rear glide up yet in this video to make it a bit easier....

I raised the rear up and it was easier, but it does get some bite on the carpet too....

Guess we just don't feel it in the back ourselves....but understand how people could be different
