Hello everyone I was at the expirance in Clearwater fl back in April 15
Anyways I recently came across a truck mount
I have purchased it for a deal and have multiple ?s for install and need help or manual
It is a chemspec high heat slide in 880 it has 800 hours been sitting inside for 7 years
Had new blower before retired from use
Guy died I got it thru estate sale (no one knew what it was) I got a deal
It was running and working before guy died
I tried to turn it over,.. Success
However of course I did not run it yet just 1 crank
I have no manuals on it nor can I locate them online or YouTube
Has Nissan 2.4 motor
I've been trying to come up with a steam unit since day 1
Soo I'd like to get it going asap
At this moment I have a 99 dodge extended cargo van
So I guess I would like to mount it in there
What do I do next?
Any help would be fantastic
God bless

Did sit in that barn every winter or is that your barn?

If it sat out, it's possible their could be freeze damage to the pump and solution system. I would have it checked out by the local distributor. Money well spent prior to installing.

Plus you're going to need a "go to" person for repairs, with that unit no longer being manufactured.

Does that one have the stainless steel frame? If not I would probably just part it out.. If that is the unit I'm thinking of the frame was so flimsy that it would flex and mess with the blower cupler..

Very possible the poor guy died with a wrench in his hand..

If the motor & the blower are still good he probably came out ok. Good thing he got a deal on it.

Fookin Keith! The poor guy died with a wrench in his hand". :lol:

It's comforting to know I will have friends in HELL with me. :biggrin:

Yep, that machine looks like it was run hard. No way that has only 800 hours. I'm guessing it's really 100,800 hours. lol

Actually, sadly it probably does only have that much!

I stopped by Trident when they were installing your unit, I had to see the old Powerclean!! Man that thing was clean! Berry said, "but guess what we found under the unit" I was thinking a greasy mess.. He said a leaf! Let me tell you most don't keep their equipment like that!
