And it will spin fast enough to turn it like my 4k psi

Keep in mind that you can never get back the time wasted working on junk. But you can always make up the money invested in decent equipment.

I’m in business to stay in business. I buy used trucks but never used equipment. Don’t hamper yourself from making money. I lost 50 grand in the last 24 hours and it sucks but I’ll make it back in a couple of months. Life goes on. Buy the best

To be honest—…This machine I found off Craigslist 4 years ago has been the best machine i’ve ever owned.I’ve replaced the gear box and that’s it. I can run the machine for 10 hours straight and put it in the van and go home. get up and do the same thing the next day…year after year, it just keeps running … The first machine I started my business with was a brand new machine from Northern tools. I ran that thing to death…and still own it. Replaced the head gasket on it, and that’s it. and put a new pump on it. I believe in both philosophies… Buying new and used. If you’re on a budget and just starting out.best to buy used.–unless you can buy equipment on credit Also a good idea to be mechanically inclined getting into this business. Understanding physics helps too.

To be honest, your credibility is non-existent. Your existence as an actual contractor is highly doubted and you are wasting your time trying to bring everybody down to second grade business.

I hate to see all the struggling here–I must help !

The industry isn’t that difficult if you just understand physics…That’s all it is, …is physics …

Stop beating your heads against the wall .

If you understood physics you would own reels. What a nut.

That just means that max pressure it can take. Gpm is what really spins a bar. What brand surface cleaner is that? most that i know can at least handle up to 6gpm.

20 inch northstar sc

If its the dark grey floater, then its probably just the re branded gp hammerhead which can take up to 8gpm.
