My newer Razor EDGE machines have Dema valves. My older Razor 3 machines had Danfoss valves that were difficult and expensive (comparatively) to rebuild. I bit the bullet and have been changing to Demas on those older Razors. The Dema diaphragm’s are cheap and take about 2 minutes to replace...

As long as you do the ABSOLUTE BARE MINIMUM preventative maintenance (conveniently shown in the service reminders menu) you shouldn’t have too many issues. Beyond that there is a very detailed maintenance section in the manual. It goes into detail on what services and checks you should be doing...

Yes, the big time timer needs a programmer. I only had one of those timers in a Fragramatics carpet shampoo vac. The sales guy from my distributor would borrow the programmer from someone else and use it to change prices. Maybe some kind owner here will lend you a programmer

I was trying to find a link but I can’t even find the IDX website. They used to give out a small catalog at the ICA show. I may have bought them from mouser.com but it’s been quite a few years

Can’t help with your problem but you can buy replacement numbers for that old Big Time timer. They are very easy to replace.

Definitely go with dried corn stalks. Gives the place a real Children of the Corn feel.

My local sign shop has the template for my Carolina Pride decals. Any sign shop can make them up. I can connect you to my guy be his shop Is in MA.

I don’t understand what you’re asking. Can you circle the area in one of the photos that is of concern? There is supposed to be chemical in the valve area of the solenoid. There shouldn’t be chemical in the coil. Your picture doesn’t seem to show anything out of the ordinary. I’m sure we are...

I’m just hoping for the early October snow storm to kick off the salt season. Winter of 2023/24 didn’t even start until mid January. September is always slow. I was speaking with Waxman last week. We are both happy with our September car counts so far.

In my market they don’t make it through the weekend. I have an extremely broad customer base. I’d put money on an over 58-67yo white “blonde” woman driving a Lexus or other higher end SUV to grab these.

Been carrying a Gerber Suspension for as long as I can remember. I think I found this one at the Carwash. I’ve had Swiss Army knives since I was in middle school, the leather man and have had several Gerbers.

Three likely causes 1 no voltage to the coil. This could be a burnt/shorted coil or a wire break some where in the rotary switch or the wire to the coil. Check the ground/neutral side wire too. The easiest test for this is to power on the bay and select Soap. The stem on the solenoid should...

Or Zoro.com to save a few $$ https://www.zoro.com/search?q=Fuse%20glr-10

Agree with others. Fusion could be rehabbed and make you more money that the SS bays. It will cost you more to convert that to a SS bay than it will to rehab the machine. Then save some money to replace it with good touchless machine and differentiate yourself from the new tunnels. Make...

What are you trying to accomplish? if I was trying to do this I’d start at the breaker panel and identify which wires are on the same phase. Then, I’d do a continuity test from the identified wires at the panel to the wire at the motor starter. Attach phase 1 at the panel to position 1 on the...

Monorail has been out of business for about 20 years. They started in by building automatic carwashes using a similar design as RoboWash. I don’t think they were hugely successful with the IBA but did make some of the best SS equipment and vacuums. My SS pump stand was built in ‘84 and is...

You should be able to get tech support to help you out but your distributor should be your first call. The distributor can get tech support over the phone right away. As an operator you need to schedule an appointment and Unitec will call you at the assigned time. Unfortunately, the...

Etowah Valley Equipment is just about the easiest stuff to work on. I’m not enthusiastic about direct injection, VFDs or a lot of fancy controls especially proprietary parts! I want equipment that any idiot can understand along with parts that I can buy from any industrial supply house. I...

What did your Proforma indicate the car count would be? Calculating 7500 x .005 = 37.5 cars per day. This is Robert Roman’s formula. For the past 20 years I’ve had my eye on a site in front of a Walmart. Traffic count is 9500. Mostly commuter traffic or direct into Walmart. Using my Proforma...

I think that is Mark VII. Maybe IB Washingcars would know. I think he was the Mark VII guy on this site
