I'd like to see this created for ALL truckmounts, done by a third party.



@Jim Martin check 370 and Legend GT ...

 

[Mikey P]

boy, if you compare the 870 and the 650 Everest they are damn near identical now

 

[Nate The Great]

All I know is I passed up a pretty smokin deal on a SS870 from the feedback I've gotten from users...... I'll stick with finding an Everest 650hp...

 

[Jim Martin]

that is a sweet machine...bet it will do everything the 570 will......

 

[Desk Jockey]

That Everest 650 is a beast.

It's the most popular of the 6 TM's we own. The guys fight over it.

 

[hogjowl]

Why?

 

[ruff]

Because he keeps them thin and hungry.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Mo heat, mo vacuum, dual on commercial.

Easy to run, starts like a car. No choke, No fooling around with prime hose. Just advancements over our 90's Prochem units.

 

[hogjowl]

So why do you only have one?
Are you a cheap backturd?

 

[Jimmy L]

But don't they all squirt and suck?

Yessir I be one.

I'm going to squeeze every bit of life out of what we have before we buy the next one. At least another year, maybe two.

 

[hogjowl]

I’ll have a Cleanco for sale about then

 

[Desk Jockey]

Cleanco is a nice unit. We nearly bought one over the last Butler, just for the local service.

 

[Old Coastie]

You should find some BDPH and donate it to him.

 

[hogjowl]

I’ll give you my brother-in-law deal

 

[Old Coastie]

I don’t want your brother in law!

Unless he is a good motorcycle mechanic.

 

[hogjowl]

I’ll throw him in with the Cleanco
Free

I like that compare tool...i was comparing 460 to 2500 SS, they have some identical parts...such as pump...why cant the 460 also produce 2500 as well? It seems that the 460 has everything that 2500 has but with a 408 blower

 

[Mikey P]

No fooling around with prime hose

????

 

[Desk Jockey]

With other units you'd have to pull the prime hose out, put vacuum load on it until it primed. Then stick it back in the tm solution just to adjust the chem meter flow. Not a huge deal but something you no longer have to screw with.

I'm just guessing here, but I bet 2,500 is with little or no heat.. I'm thinking they bypass the heat exchangers at that pressure??

Ya I don’t think my 570
Or pro1200 needs to
Pull the
Prim hose out.

They run the prim side to the vacuum inlet hose and it automatically primes

You are dual wanding with this:
Both the SS570 and PC650 are now delivering 13" hg. Why ???

Maybe because in the interest of longevity and decreasing warranty issues they don't run everything balls to the wall?

Maybe they want to be able to pull the wand off the carpet. Once you are past 10 inches hg, it's the air flow that counts. An Everest cleaning at 10 inches is way more powerful than a blazer cleaning at 10 inches.

with a glided wand...I would be surprised to see it reach 13...none of my machines are set above that...

 

[DAT]

I thought the ideal lift is 12-14hg, and after that you want good CFM

 

[hogjowl]

Way over-thinking this

 

[DAT]

Yup, my portable is great. Better than that shop vac...

The majority of medium pressure blowers are run at more power than 13".

The fact that air-cooling is ducted to the belts on some TMs may have some relevance.
