Could be your soap. Not enough lubrication! Seen this before on a Belanger drive through car wash at a car hire company

It is down to the ability to add things like hyper flex which can increase the cpd. I do not think the XR-7 can do this. I guess if you predict a higher cpd is needed for your site you then switch to an even faster machine like an Oasis xp or Typhoon.

Totally agree, but we have no Razors at all in the UK or Ireland so without dirty car videos we are screwed!

Josh, Do you have any good videos showing dirty cars going into the wash and then coming out clean. I have customers sceptical about how well an XR-7 would clean. All sales videos show clean cars in so clean cars out!

What a great template to work from! It is a good way to figure out which model suits you best!

Agreed. I would say it closes the feed to the hp then opens to feed the low pressure and is fitred just before the arm. So no tangling hose!

I would say they are plumbed completely independent of each other so the High pressure goes from the pump to the wand and the low pressure goes from the low pressure manifold directly to his new nozzles. If he put wide angled nozzles on he would get great coverage with less soap. How does he...

I have them on 5 x water wizards and feel they are a big improvement. I think hydraflex now have a new version of there blast tech pro now that has a longer lifespan.

I think that is an awesome upgrade. I think the soap going through the same nozzles as the hp water is a big negative on Razors as their is a lot of wasted soap. Also those turbo nozzles clean way better than v jets with less water. I don't know how he stops the chemical hose from wrapping...

I use godaddy. Great templates, works with mobiles and easy to use. Then register on google maps to get good local visibility!

Here is a pic of the type we use. We typically like to set them up so that you have Air on one side and screen wash on the other. Typically charge a dollar for 5 minutes. (Well as we are in Ireland it is a Euro.) Machines have a digital pressure display with auto cut off when tyres are correctly...

We would typically be 10 -12% of the purchase price for the install fee. A 3 x brush Istobal would take our 2 x men 3 long days. Tear out about 1/2 a day!

I own a few and they do great. My washes are attached to gas stations though which means more throughput. Make sure you get retractable hose reels and a digital readout to see the pressure! We average $500 a month per site!

That is a shame on Robert. Despite his regular outbursts he sometimes had great advice with a unique way of looking at things.

Hi Abigail, You need to speak with Shiners for Washworld machines or Eltech for Oasis. Both will do a great job with good tech support in Oz!

Great advice Greg, I had this problem last week and the idea of flicking on/off the eye test relay would have saved me a lot of time! Incidentally I had a banner sender eye on the boom go bad and drop the voltage!

That coupling to the gearbox failing is almost always down to the inside drive bearing failing. What soaps are you using as these may be causing the bearings to fail. I have in the past fitted an extra metal piece to extend the home plate toward the exit. This way if the machine lifts and misses...

Is it stopping in the same place at the same point in the wash program?

I would be careful with buying a touchless from a supplier that really is not known for its ability to build a good touchless wash. At least if you buy an entry level washworld or similar you know that with the right chemistry and water quality you will get clean cars. It takes the risk out of...

That would concern me! Have you seen a touchless istobal cleaning cars well? When the wash is installed you need to see it clean, otherwise the chemical supplier will blame the machine and the equipment supplier will blame the chemical.
