Is the quick connect at the front as hard to get to as it looks or is it just the angle of the photo?

Think it looks better than

Thats not a bad price and you can get a couple of extra 25ft lenghths..

Am sure he would have tested the machine and would well be worth a go for your set up.

Whats the delivery time on it ???

Yeah that would put me off straight away. Life's hard enough without things like that. ;D

Note the regulator, where's the pump then?

On the speedster it's on the bottom and sticks out for everything to bash into it and break off the hose barb on the pump. ::)

I had a look at this machine yesterday and the qc isn't an issue in my opinion also what I saw was that the psi showed it went up to 1000psi so it's a tile and grout machine also, I also had a go with the altec tripple vac and that was a great bit of kit, we put Rob Stubbs's 2" wand on it and it made it like a mini TM, it was inside the building and was very quiet compared to the Scorpion although I did not see the Cleansmart machine working.

I'd suggest the connector is " protected " by enclosing it.....................difficult to access ? do you wear gloves ?

Is this one of the Australian machines discussed some time ago?

Ive seen worse"Scorpion"to me it dosent look very big it looks the same size as the powerflight machine next to it and the powerflight machine is tiny when you see it close up but as long as it works interested to no how much it weighs.

Dave Ingram had a look inside it and when you open her up the motors lift up on a canterlever lift action and are changable within less than a minute.

Is that half an hour in your home when it doesn't break down or half an hour on the job when it's urgent?

I can tell you it's very light compared to my powerflite pfx1350 as I helped Mat lift it out the back of his car at the CCDO, dont know the exact KG though.

I think it should sell well, Mat told me he's spent 2 and a 1/2 years designing and getting it manufactured (all in UK) price is £2500 including wand and hose for tripple vac, 600PSI model,  but it's available in a twin vac 600PSI with built in heater spec also. The water tank is bigger than the powerflite and it comes with an exaust attachment to keep moisture level down and also acts to keep noise levels down.

I think it's nice and compact and looked more modern than some of the other new machines available that are starting to look a bit dated.

Hat’s off to Matt I think he’s done a sterling job of designing the machine and very ergonomic too. For the price I recon he’s got a winner there.

If that's the case Rich, I'd be happy... I hate tipping my machine upsidedown to get to the working parts! (Or un working parts as the case may be :-\ )
So the tri vac would be the next plausible and sensible move when I need a new machine...
