The basic concept of this unit is good, i asy this as this is almost identical to the unit i started my company with. it by no means is a
vortex or
butler but it also does not cost as much as one. if you take larry advice and do a couple of upgrades to the unit it will run very nice and give you countless hours of service. i would also
1. add a panti hose to that waste tank filter so it is easy to clean at least twice a week, just pull off and replace with new one.
2. check tubing coming off heat exchanger for obstruction or buildup of any kind.
just to be sure i would remove the extended exhaust tube and see the performance varience.
3. replace both spark plugs and check wires for deterioration.
4. replace the waste tank waste gate to ensure proper seal.
5. clean waste tank with bioclean or some kind of enzyme that will eat all the that crap up.
6. would check to see if blower need to be lubed and if so add zirc fittings for easier maintenance.
7. check all tubing from blower to tank for any leaks , if any leaks present - replace complete assembly ( do not EZ your machine with goop just to seal fix it correctly so that it last and works correctly)
8. if you have done so already do all required maintencance and please clean up you machine, it will make your machine happier and it will work harder and hotter for you! :mrgreen:
