Is there a trick to changing the belts on a Mars validator? I can't figure out how to do it. Thanks.

Some idiot tried to rip my electric meter off the wall. He didn't get it off, but did enough damage to ruin it. It cost $3500 to replace. My insurance covered it minus $500 deductible, but they didn't cover lost revenue. I was down a sunny week. The day I finally reopened it started raining and...

I have a few dixmor timers laying around that don't work anymore. Can they be rebuilt and by who? Thanks.

I just installed my first automatic 3 weeks ago. A WW 2.0 with wheel scrubbers. So far so good. No major problems and the distributor has been great. He set me up with Blendco Supersat System.

The tubes that go into my soap buckets from the hydrominders keep bending up over time. It makes it hard to get the last few inches of soap. Does anyone have a solution for this? I was thinking of putting the tube in a pvc pipe but then I would have to make a bigger hole in the lid. Thanks.
