surface cleaner not spinning
GymRat replied to COACHS's topic in Tools, Equipment & Basic Maintenance
Remove tips, flush lines, clean tips and replace. Hold surface cleaner on side to verify good flow from both tips. -
You can also apply oxylic acid using and xjet m-5. Mix about 2 to 3 pounds per 5 gallons and spray it on the concrete. Make sure you hit all concrete because it does brighten it, and you will see where you missed a spot.

This is the view I love from our river home. -
I don't know what you are planning on using the pump for, but 220psi or 360psi is more than you need for roof cleaning or for applying cleaners on wood.

Downstreaming all of my house wash chemicals, but still clinging to the M-5 for rinsing. On my J-rod 4way holder, I have My M-5 for rinsing, 00-40 for high soaping, 15-40 for low soaping and 15/40 for mid range soaping. With the M-5 with me at all times, it makes it easy to hit concrete walks or drives with a shot of OX for brightening or some HD-80 for a quick deck clean.

Pre Wet awning topside and underside before soaping with normal house wash. Do not let dwell on awning any length of time. Rinse awning then rest of that side of house and re-rinse awning.

Only thing I see is a few darker runs that appear to have come from the weap holes in the siding which can come from spraying upwards on the siding.

When I used the Xjet with 50' of hose, I found it easy enough to just wrap the hose around the top frame of the hand cart. Paul how much 1/2" hose will that stainless reel hold?

A 35 or 55 gallon drum would be all you need for a tank. Bob will sell you a hudson float valve and a line long enough for your discharge back to your tank. The discharge line back to your tank does not have to be a high pressure line because it just hangs in the top of the tank. Remember to aim this recyle line away from the discharge of your tank, to diminish the chance of the bubbles it creates from getting to the suction of your pump causing your pump to cavitate.

Yes, you can use a 50" hose for your Xjet setup and it will pull just fine. I had a setup with a 15 gallon tank mounted to a hand cart that I used for years and it worked great. I now downstream of course like mentioned earlier.
-
I have mixed some oxalic acid in a bucket that had recently contained sodium hypochorite(forgot to rinse bucket), and yes it does put off some heat and a great fragrance.

I drink alone!
