  1. When i was in the fire department went to ladders class(one of many classes)anyone can at a community college. Accidents only happen from those that rush and not respect the tool they are using. when alone it is wise to secure your ladder to keep fromsliding. Many make mistakes by placing the ladders feet to far out, you want your ladder nearly straight up, best way to set usually is place your feet at the ladders feet and your hands on the rung in front of you this way your placment of your ladder is about right. Also inspect your ladder for cracks and weakness. Also to test your ladder extend it to its full working length then place laddder across supported by the ends and high enough of the ground for testing. Now if your ladder is rated lets say 250lbs, at center of ladder place 250lbs of weight let sit for 10 min,remove wieghts and if ladder springs back it passes the test if it stays bowed, breaks of comes apart you need to put the ladder out of service.

    Hopes this info helps a bit, its kinda what i learned a bit felt like a good thing to share. Also NFPA also has info on ladders as well heres a link that may help too. http://www.nfpa.org/catalog/services/onlinepreview/online_preview_document.asp?id=193210#

    Make it a priority to check out the ladders classes in a community college it is very helpful and fun as well.

  2. I always clean injector out after job is complete with plenty of water through my supply tank. I bought mine at northern about 2 years ago and is still doing well. The o ring i replaced once, the one it came with wasnt much. Also the screen that goes in the chem, the metal one, i took apart and removed the ball out of it, gave me nothing but issues. I have injected with lines as long as 150ft-200ft and no issues. My injector is right at the machine just as the water comes out.

    Hope this helps.

  3. “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

    “Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

     Hope this helps.

  4. Doesn't sound like a loss. 60/40 600 there way and 400 yours is not a fair deal at all. A 10 percent finders fee for them might be fair. Are they supplying you with equipment,materials and fuel then a 60/40 would be called for there way....this is merely a find of accounts they have and send them your way....crooks is what they are. Man greed is so powerful.

  5. You could buy the generator you want mount it next to your unit and run your fuel line from the generator to your skids fuel tank. You will have 2 motors running off one tank so you may consider upgrading your tank as well.

    Or you would have to find a motor to handle both the generator head and the pump make a bracket for the generator then you will need a set of pulleys for a belt to run the generator and you should be good. If you got any fab skills this will be an easy task.

  6. I would think that is probably set right...considering it was right before the problem ....right? My guess your filter may be in need of cleaning....if it is anything like my pump the back comes apart and there is a filter inside the pump. But this is just guess. Also the nozzle that the fuel sprays out from has a filter as well that needs cleaning once in a while.

  7. Purple power sucks,one the dye in it is just extra to clean off and if you boost it with SH the purple gets chunky and messy.

    @Adam And are you referring to SH as Sodium Hypochlorite or SH as Sodium Hydroxide?

    A buddy of mine uses simple green for house wash less corrosive and safer.

  8. First run your unit a minute to get the oil moved around..shut down and check it see where your level is,then go from there. Got a John Deere mower with a Kolher and the oil looks good before i start but when i run it a little it shuts off i checked the oil and it was down put oil in it and runs great.Those motors use oil. Start from the easy and work towards the harder stuff,lol.
