How often do those jets clog? Are you running extra inline filters to prevent it? What flow is each "jet/hole"? How do you check, and how often to see that you have no clogged jets? Looking into getting one...Jim Martin said:[

the filter is a very fine mesh and so far I have not had any clogging problems...I check mine every few days...
I just tip it back and pull the trigger and spin it around and look at each one...but..unlike the standard jets...if a hole or 2 did clog it would not effect the machine...and how it cleans
I do not know what the flow comes out to be...I run the .48 orfice in mine....

Nice hey Jim. Do you think this would work on a 360i?

off the top of my head...no...but I have not tried this with mine or a wand..2 different types of jet set ups..the Hoss has more what I call high flow jets..where as the 360i has more the wand type ( pressure )...the types on the wands and the 360i may give you more problems with not enough pressure of with to much...
but like I said..I really don't know...I have never really got around to testing it out....

I have no problem "cleaning" poly it's the wear.. Like in your pic. the area right above the dirty area would not be acceptable to the prop. managers I work for.. Looks good but when these people are paying a mortgage for rent they just won't have it.

this is a little old ladies home that she has lived in for years..she does not want to get new carpet because she says she wont out last it....what do you do...the dirt is all mine but the wear belongs to her...
Yeah, I give it my best on all of them no matter what but the carpet mill should be ashamed of the shit absolute shit they are selling these days. Even when I tell my prop. managers that they are going to replace it because of wear they still have me clean it KMA! whatever..
I have one custy that sent pictures of her 1 year old smart strand to Shaw they never even responded.. would the real rob allen please stand up?

as everyone knows..poly is probably some of the most challenging out there...everyone hates it...the Hoss is the only machine that I have used that can take a matted down worn poly and bring it back up.....
this is what I dug out of this thing using the Hoss........

Really!? The Hoss can take wear out of carpet?
The poly I work with won't even stand back up with Vawters Viagara as a booster.. I've seen Jimmy naked

no...but if I ever figured out how to remove the wear...you would never here from me again because I would use all that money and buy me a island somewhere where the fishing was good 24/7........

Yes, it works on the 360. I've been running one on mine for 1.5 years.

Someone asked will this work a RV360, yep. The ball valve is crude(sorta works) for metering and if you keep the stock jets an inexpensive needle valve works even better. I swapped out the ball valve when I first got my 360 and flow checked it by running it in a concrete mixing pan. Count the turns, trigger for a minute, measure the water. You'll get to know the different rates and what they do on carpet. If the junky tool doesn't work for you, tweak it.

yea I saw that pooling after I brushed it out and took a picture of that... the damage was still there where the chair was..thats a given...but it was cleaner....you walk into some of these places and wonder why they called a cleaner instead of a installer....some of them just have no hope...

Pooling or pile-reversal is not "cleaning defect", but a characteristic of some cut pile or plush carpets.

yes we know....I did not notice it was there until after it was cleaned......normally you can see it before you even touch it......
