I’m really close to pulling the trigger on this skid.
I need it to be good for commercial flatwork, and typical residential stuff.
I was going to build a machine with a predator or maybe even honda, but once I got to adding everything up it was very close to this rig. Then I found this website where its only $50 shipping. I would probally save 300 a lone just in shipping with individual parts. The only downside I found was if I were to build I would have a udor pump. Considering my mechanical skills are limited, my time is limited, busy with work and school. I’m seriously considering purchasing this or something very similar. Any feedback or suggestions are welcome.
I have the 5.5 gpm version. It’s not really the machine that I wanted but I’ve been pleasantly surprised. I don’t know how it would hold up with a crew running it but with me as a owner operator I feel like it will be fine. I heard that pressurepro didn’t heat up very good but so far my has gotten hot enough to destroy chewing gum. I’ve been very happy with mine. I know there’s better built machines out there but for the money I don’t think you can go wrong. I would try to buy local even if it cost a little more.
Dang. Free freight to a commercial address. Make friends with your local building supply/hardware store. If they really like you, they’ll load it onto your trailer with their forklift, like they did for me
There is nothing wrong with general pumps. I have several with several thousand hours on them. Only issue I use to have was check valves. I was only getting about 500 hours out of them. I switched from 1” to 1.5” feed hose and haven’t had any problems since. Is UDOR better? Probably . A lot of people say they are. But a tsf2021 will still give you many years of service.
Harold I have that same one with a general tsf2021 and it’s 12 volt pull the trigger u will like it and it will pay for itself in no time I bought a liberty one it was about identical to a pressure pro when I was twenty new from amazing machinery it lasted me 16 yrs had the same general pump on it when I sold it last yr only thing I had to do to it is replace the transformer and I rebuilt the pump before I sold it a 12 volt will be fine
Hell yea it does. Thanks for the link. So I’m reading it as the 12v doesn’t need a generator? I’m gonna call this company tomorrow and confirm everything bc this is a large purchase for me.
Then go for it. I’m not saying it’s a piece of crap. I like mine but typically you’ll have less trouble with a generator unit. One thing I do like about 12 volt systems is they seem simpler to work on. As long as it makes money that’s what counts
No, for this the plan is to have steel pipe cut to length, and use them to roll it into the enclosed trailer(it has a ramp). I’ve done this with an industrial generator we have at a fishing camp. It might take 4 people, but i think its do able.
