Which model air compressor are you using from Harbor Freight Ed?

It all depends on how much air you really need. I have a 4 bay shelf Serve and I need air for my foam brush system, I only have one Flo-jet pump and use air to make it foam. So I don't require a lot of air. So I use a 20 gallon air compressor. Back in 1995 on the night before I was due to go on...

Which Hamilton pay station?

That's an easy fix. The end play on the motor is to excessive. Remove the Hopper pin wheel from the motor hub to remove the coin behind the wheel. reinstall the pin wheel and then rotate to wheel around so you can get a Allen wrench into Allen screw that holds the hub on the motor shaft, loosen...

If it staining ones hands and shoes you're using it way to strong. Dial it back a couple of tips it should be a pale blue. I stopped using colored soaps years because of the staining issues. I use white JBS Fonic wash for both High pressure soap and Foam brush. I works perfect, the customers...

Do I like cleaning up a muddy mess, No. I learned 42 years ago It's part of the car wash business. No matter what you do muddy mess is not going to go away.I guess maybe you could put a sign up that says "We only wash clean vehicles if your vehicle is dirty please go elsewhere. Because we don't...

That thingy that the arrow is pointing to is a 20mm H bushing, Cat pumps shaft size is 20mm. To get the H bushing out of the pulley thread 2 1/4" grade A bolts an inch long into the threaded holes on the H bushing and push it off of the pulley. When you install the H bushing and the pulley use...

I only use the MX-8 on my Presoak pump. I should have a time delay on my motor contactor to keep it from hammering

When you turn the pulley on the Cat pump you should have some resistance, it shouldn't be super hard to turn. Get out your amp meter and see how many amps the motor is drawing when the Cat pump is running, then check the label plate on the motor to see how many amps the motor is supposed to...

I use an MX-8 with the 2 sec. delay so when you spin the rotary switch it doesn't jump on.

What kind of equipment or car wash is this?

The foam brush system should be completely independent from the high pressure system. You probably have a stuck open solenoid valve on the foam brush system or debris under the seat of the solenoid valve. Is it leaking in just on bay?

Before you replace anything is the pressure switch starting and stopping the pump motor. You might need to readjust or replace the pressure switch. If you think the pressure switch is OK I'd replace the pump head. I use a MX- 8 to control my Procon pump, I don't care for the pressure switch set up

When that happens at my car wash it's from a leaking solenoid valve or debris under the seat of the solenoid valve.

I've sold a number of the Standard conversion kits, they work great in the Rowe changer.

I don't have one of those, I have Hamilton bill changers.

At one of my brothers car washes he removed all the swipers and install just the Tap plus. It's been about 2 months and so far it's worked great.

You need to replace your seals, all of your seals. When you replace the seals in the pump you should always replace all of them at the same time. There's no problem running your pumps at 1100 PSI, whoever told you that is wrong. I run my pumps at 1400-1500 PSI all the time and I don't have a lot...
