How do you rate the bane Machines?
« on: February 17, 2007, 08:18:38 pm »
i have been considering TM`S for some thime now but cant make my mind up if i want to spend truck mount money. I have been offered  a bane at a very reasonable price, but how do they rate
Are they better than a potable?

What sort of psi can you expect from them?

How do they maintain heat?

What are they like on vacuum?

How far from the van can you work?

Are servicing and maintainence easily available?

I would be intereted in your comments.

Thank you

John

A bane is a big heavy portable with less power than say a scorpian.  I know as i had one.

I had 2 of them for about 5 years, don't really go wrong but no power or real heat, and are a bit big, for the money I'd get a Scorpion or contact Vernon Percell as he has some good deals on high end portables which will out do a Bane.

Are Bane owners allowed to join Truckmounters?

Also that makes Cleaningco   (no Longer with us)  ninja set up a truckmount.

Machines are superb, rugged, tough, no fuel running cost, and flexible in the way that they can become portable at the flick of a clip.
As for Bane chemicals, truly the No1 in my opinion especially the powdered PCA formula's - 4 & 5, nothing comes close. My business has been built on the back of Bane chemicals.
