You would make more money if you were to split it up for sure.

If you were to split, how much for the wand?

Regards,
Steve.

Is this  the 600psi model and is it fully adjustable 0-600?

Cheers

Hi its 500psi, although it does not have a gauge.  Pressure can be adjusted via a control on the side, which I usually set at mid-point which suits me for 99% of the jobs.

For more technical spec etc feel free to email Nick at World of Clean (Solutions) in Cornwall as he is the sole importer of these machines and knows them inside out. Lots of help and advice also available on the "other forum" where you will find a lot of happy Scorpion owners ;D

Can you tell me, has the m/c been serviced recently?
If it's about 3 1/2 years old.....are they still running on the original vacs or have any of them been changed during its life? What about the pump.....has this needed any sort of maitenance during its time?
Thanks

Hi Josh

No not been servicd recently, although someone told me they could do it for around £45.  I have had the machine since end of July and purchased it off someone who only every used it part-time since new, approx 3 years.  Nick at Solutions in Cornwall (supplier of Scorpion's in the U.K) should be able to verify this.

As far as I know it is on original pump motor and vac's and it has been fine for me the last 6 months before I decided to quit in December.

Just about everything you need to start your own carpet cleaning business (except vacuum cleaner NOW TO INCLUDE SEBO BS36 its a little bit too heavy for the Mrs so I have decided to include in the sale)

Scorpion - approx 3 years old with light use
Wand (4 jet) - approx 3 years old with light use
6" Stair Tool - approx 3 years old with light use
approx 100 feet of solution hoses - approx 3 years old
approx 100 feet of 2" vac hose with a 1 1/2 short piece - approx 3 years old with light use

Sebo Duo - new June 2010
Sebo BS36 - new June 2010 in good working order, although little metal spring occassional pops out when you take back off to change bag, no big deal and does not effect performance.
4" detail tool - new June 2010
Airmover - new June 2010
6lt Sprayer and a 3 lt Sprayer
carpet grooming brush and carpet rake

As this now includes Sebo BS36 I am now asking £1700 to take account of this.
