« Last post by Stoots on Today at 07:01:44 pm »Used my new un for only the 3rd time today and its leaking oil ffs. Not sure what to do with it
Shoulda stuck to windows
That’s not normal nor common, something isn’t right there mate!
Where’s the oil coming from?
I got it from Jetmac, spoke to him and he reckons its the gearbox oil seal. Apparently a know issue with the gearbox. Hes sending me an oil seal to replace it myself. He did say i could take it somewhere near leicester but its a 200 mile round trip.

Juddering - sounds like grit in the pump valve
BTW - if you are returning to tank it won’t overheat only those that recirculate around the unloaded that ( smaller mains fed p/w)

General Cleaning Forum / Re: £4k to get into pressure washing. what would you get?
« Last post by Stoots on Today at 05:47:36 pm »Ive only done a handfull of jobs after getting my machine a few weeks ago.
But what i would definitely recommend is get a van mounted machine.
It doesnt seem much but dragging than machine out with the wheelie bin and all the other gear to get setup and packaway easily adds 30 mins to the job. A van mount would be much easier and quicker for smaller jobs imo. I think i will van mount mine and then maybe get a smaller machine maybe second hand as backup/portbale option just in case i come across somewhere i cant reach. Machine is heavy and ramps can be a little slippy, i was close to dropping mine today.
Imagine just pulling up and just pluggin hose reel to your buffer tank in the van, pulling a reel out with lance on and away you go...
