Perfect day to pick it up.
Did you get home in time to clean your Clayton home?
We need pic of the trunk dude.

 

[hogjowl]

I spent a couple hours trying to get it organized, but it'll be a few days getting it how I want it. I may clean with it tomorrow.

I don't understand---there won't be enough room in there to take a nap...

Pretty sweet man! Congrats!!!

Remember when those van belts start squeeking get the Greenline belts from Gates.
And as those blower belts get warm and broke in they will stretch a little and need to be tightened up.
Probably in the first 50 hours.

 

[hogjowl]

Does that require the use of wrenches?

I played with it this morning on a tile and carpet job. I cleaned the carpet at 12 flow and 500 psi and pegged 220 at the van. I ran 4 flow on my tile tool at 1200 psi and it stayed at 220. I ran my tile edger ( Unknown flow, but im guessing 4 flow) at 450 psi and it went up to 230.

Plenty of heat.

 

[Russ T.]

Nice!

It's a great system and you said it PLENTY of heat, just not obnoxious.

Is your vac relief set at 14?

 

[Russ T.]

I love the suction I get with my 47. Great clean ability and fast dry times...

 

[hogjowl]

Is your vac relief set at 14?

You know, I never even looked. It's whatever they set it at.

 

[Russ T.]

The factory says 14 on the 47. You will have to keep your blower protection filters clean. I hose mine off about every other day.

I removed the metal pre filter (or whatever it's called) and use a Devastator. Suction is awesome.

 

[Jimmy L]

Yeah dump that basket in the tank.

 

[thecleaningdude]

Congrats! May it yield years of service and thousands of hours for you!

Enjoy just in time for the holiday cleanings

You weren't about to use the tard word, were you

speak of .....are you going to run with the hood up in summer like that spindly legged guy in Kneebraska??

"I see your hood's up...do you need a jump, Mr Sweaty CC'er?
Should i call a tow truck"?




..L.T.A.

 

[hogjowl]

I specifically asked the Cleanco dude about that. Even mentioned Jimmy by name. He said that wasn't necessary.

 

[thecleaningdude]

Why would you clean with the hood up? Or is this some sort of long running joke?

The Direct Drive units used to run hot in the past... They got a bad rap for blowing head gaskets in the earlier years... Some people who get hot summer's would overheat there engines while using them sitting for hours outside the houses... @Jimmy L Still runs with his hood up... I assume better safe than sorry... If it were me, I'd use a pusher fan on the front of the radiator if I thought it'd help cool it....

 

[Scott S.]

an engine oil cooler helps keep engine heat down and help the engine stay lubricated better, my E250 van has a aux tranny cooler and a aux engine oil cooler, factory installed. but i know you can get after market ones also.

Old news.
Totally replaced by spraying MSG on the engine.

 

[Desk Jockey]

We will if it gets up around 100 degrees, we pop the hood. Our mechanic said it might help with the heat.

Butlers need all the heat they can get...

I was cleaning upholstery Saturday the facilities manager could seen the vapor coming off the fabric after I pulled the tool away. He asks me if the water is hot. I told him so hot I sometimes wear a glove, see for yourself but be ready to pull away.

Cooked his hand. He jumped back and said "that's hot!".

It was smokin!!!!!!!!!!!
