Can I remove some of the bristles and avoide the need to go to the larger 3/4 hp motor?

Mine like that with the Teflon Glides worked just fine....
Actually ran smooth with that much brush...
With the metal Glides....not as good....Teflon.....good

364 bundles of bristles. I'd cut 5% of them and measure the difference.
For a start. Keep it even.

Hmm 5% of 364 equals 18.2/4 equals 4.55 per section... lol...
I would not take off the innermost 5 of each section because I think this area agitates the spray from the inner sprayers.

I'm not one to cast judgement before using a tool, but that does look to be a soaker with 6 jets... I'd cap 2 and go from there...

Just remove half the bristles from each bundle and you should be fine.

Those bristles look a hell of a lot softer than the black ones.
Why go with white of all colors?
Gonna look like sh!t before you know it.
Looks like Mytee's brushes are attached, with a separate backing, onto the turntable, instead of the bristles being punched through the turntable. Why doesn't someone make brushes that can be cut to fit and attached to other REs, like the HOSS and non-brush head RVs? Should be brushes for other applications that could be modified for this purpose.

Strange how the first rotary extractor company the RX20 did not continue to develop the rotary.

Rotovac owner is the original inventor of the RX.
Yes I know that, but it is interesting that Rotovac has had about 20 different versions of their machine and the RX20 had two and then I guess one other attempt at a rotary.
Or Mikey could just break out a little cash and upgrade to the stronger motor---I wonder if the elimination of bristles might affect streaking...

I though you paid better attention..

Mark found that the .5 horse does fine with the teflon shoes, with the metal, not so much.
I gave up on the i, 3 or 4 port as streaking and slow cleaning were it's curse.
The Brush Head fixes both.
It's a gem.
