Clinton

I appreciate you had a nice job on monday - but you missed a great show and there were plenty of machines to play with there, including the 3 vac set ups and 2 new truckmounts.

I reckon I will save a couple of hundred a year just by implementing some of rogers suggestions about banking.

Then there was Dougs spotting Chems, that would be a few hundred over a year.

And that's just money saved.

picked my new three vac Alltec Advance up from CCDO, used it today for first time - awesome!
 Its a lot quieter than my Scorpion and seems more powerful (and with heat).

  The machine is on two power leads - if you have three vacs and pump working and then turn the heat on, the third vac cuts out as a safety feature.

   Pump on my Scorpion went down last week, so I asked for my new machine from Alltec, as Nick at Solutions didn't have a pump in stock .  Unfortunately, my  machine wasn't quiet ready so, without asking, Chris from Alltec sent a new pump to me and as a good will gesture said at the CCDO its a gift :o

Alltec are really pulling out the stops with the customer service, I like the idea of the vac cut out that's quite smart, but why do you need heat? :o

Hi Guys

It wasn't that cheap , I paid 280 but was happy to as the recipients of the money were the Macmillan Cancer Support Charity.

In total just over 2000 was raised, which was excellent.

Cheers

Yes big difference 2" to a 1.5" wand ,as airflow optimise causes wand too lock- down so you have to angle wand to help air movement. I also have a  4 jet 1.75 " Westpak with a Hybrid Greenglide ,this is awesome 12" option.
