LOOKING FOR A BACKPCK
« on: April 02, 2006, 01:11:16 am »
Got a good trolley system and now i,m looking for a good backpack to work with it for those awkward and hard to do jobs where a trolley becomes hard work.                  Can anybody reccomend one and give me the contact address please many thanks Ronaldo.

Ron, I think there is only the sureflow type. Cleantech who also sell them used to have  Matabi but the company withdrew them. The on/off speed control switch is underneath and you may need to rewire it to a better place.

Jeff, the one from cleantech, is it ready to use straight away then or would i have to modify it.                                                                                                                               Ive looked at their site and they certainly looks like the thing i,m after.

Speak to Martin Burrows at Williamson Pumps ;)

They supply them already modified, without affecting the warranty, for WFP use if you ask them. I had heard they were in short supply at the moment.
