The NEW Everest 870 reveal

[870everest]

I'm so happy my 870 is paid off. But that newer E870 sure looks Purdy.

This is the e870 approximately 100 hours after 1 large residential job. Approximately 4 hours run time.——— stickers are falling off...
Not as pretty anymore!!

You don’t like grease eraser?

 

[Mikey P]

Looks like you sprayed grease eraser on your radiator but why don't you show a photo of your machine today, how it currently looks.......

Ya think?

He doesn't have any issues with the 870 though.........

Why?
I don’t have a problem with that .. but why!

Guys I’ve got to go out of state to a friend of mine that has an Everest 650.
I’ll attempt to do a side by side. With 870.
It might take about 3 weeks.. before I leave.

I haven’t read this thread all the ay through so I apologize if its been said, but what is the max CFM on that blower?

Legend specs seem to say it spins at 3580rpm and max lift is set at 13"



blower manufacturer specs

 

[Cleanworks]

The Everest HP produced 650 CFM, the sapphire 870 ss claims 770 CFM, this new one seems to be around 600 CFM. Single wanding, you'll never notice the difference. Dual wanding, maybe. If the machine is not performing, there's probably something wrong with. You need to see your service provider.

from what I see online
410? on Everest 650 (3125rpm 13")
410 on 870ss (3600rpm 14")

for comparison

*plumbing/design/etc makes a huge difference so we are just comparing what the blowers are capable of.....not the units themselves

Check your Vac relief valve

I was going by the manufacturers claims by a distributor. I think it was sunbelt maybe. I could be wrong.

 

[Cleanworks]

Just checked, it was sunbelt USA. They say the tl650 blower creates a "staggering" 650 CFM.

Changed my profile pic. Let me know if it’s too much. I can change it.

afaik the "tl650" is actually a GD tl410

I didn't find anything that stated the blower rpm and lift settings on an Everest 650 with a quick search


edit: from the manual it looks like 3125rpm and 13"

 

[Mikey P]

The blower on the E870 is a 4.5/9

His dump valve is open.

No, not the one on his machine...

I'm regularly told I forgot my filter

I was having problems with the suction on my 650 at the beginning also. I learned that 13hg isn't enough. When I hooked up over 150ft of hose that vac relief valve automatically opens up, killing suction. I bumped it up to 14.5hg and it holds strong and my dry times are awesome now

I'll never understand why they set it so low. Some other manufacturers are worse at setting their blowers at 12hg. Do they want negative reviews on their truckmounts? There's tons of dudes out there that have no idea at how to set it and their dry times are terrible.

Yup. Same here. Mine was opening at 12 when i got it. Bumped it to 15. No issues.

We purchased recently the 870 Everest have 75 hours on it 3 weeks time heat impressive vacuum not so much feel like it justs needs some more adjustment as well.

 

[Mikey P]

So make them, what are you waiting for?

Yes I just changed it.
Had a lot more suction.. thank you.. the commercial job I had tonight went a lot smoother..
When I get a few seals fixed it might even be a little better..

strange a dual wand machine would be setup for dual from factory?

The first e870 I got was little less than 12.. on vac breaker.. 2nd one was little over 14

 

[Mike Draper]

Does Aero tech (a dual wand machine) set theirs at 12hg from the factory? Hmm, that’s strange.

 

[Mikey P]

Ah, there you go..

and there was nothing wrong with the 1st one.

You know exactly what I'm talking about.
