I may be hooked on the pto.

Just drove across Pennsylvania saturday with our new rig. Got to see all those three story homes in the mountains. Genny kept commenting on the size of the homes we saw and how we would have to approach cleaning in that area.

Cant wait to get this van on the road. 2002 chevy and a white magic 1200.

Sure but if they could have a water cooled fuel injected carabiner that would last twice as long I'm sure they would use that.


The secret to longevity is living with as little physical stress as possible (overloaded). Take the UD1400 for example. It's so governed down to under perform that a half million mile life span is common.
This widdle 370 just purrs it's way through the job. The RV360iB should come permanently attached to it as together it will out clean any other method or machine not utilizing the iB..

In other words, if your are a residential carpet cleaner who never goes beyond 200 ft of hose. Look no further.

Would it be safe to say that 9 out of 10 carpet cleaners are total slobs when it comes to keeping the van and equipment looking good?

Yeah plus powder coat starts chipping after awhile. My cds is starting to look like shit after 7 years

Thanks guys. It will be more than a few days of cleaning up and some minor repairs. Some more major repairs are in the works now. Waiting to hear on the power steering repair.

I got it at a great price from another MBr.

Im tempted to pull everything out and rhino line the whole thing. Clean everything up as I put it back together. Go through all the maint on the machine change oils and belts and get the injector feeder working. It may work just have to figure it out.

I could be using it already but I want to go through it and take my time learning it.
