Truckmount

Can I use Truckmount on all carpets? Or should I use something else on Church, Daycare, and Commercial carpets?

I do

Over the past several months I learned that a truckmount can be used to clean anything safely and effectively, even delicate natural fibers. I was beginning to loathe this work using a portable. Vlm does have an advantage in some commercial enviroments, and there are metro areas where truckmounts simply can't be used. But, we likes the truckmount...

Commercial carpet loves getting cleaned up with a truckmount.

I’m assuming you’re new.

So let’s get a couple things checked to be certain your machine is tuned properly.
-Check the gaskets around your recovery tank lid for complete suction
-is your mercury hg set at 14-15 on the vacuum gauge?
-are all your filters (blower, filter on solution hose, inline orifice, basket, water box screen filter, any more) clean?
-what kind of wand are you using? New or old?

is your mercury hg set at 14-15 on the vacuum gauge? Not sure about this one. The only mercury I see is for Chemical tank. Am i missing something? And yes I am New. Please forgive me.

Yes sir. The mercury hg should be measured in increments of 5

Can you show us a pic of the gauges just to see exactly what you're looking at?

you didnt have to say it. We knew.

Vacuum is measured in eighter inches of mercury or inches of waterlift. Virtually all Vacuum guages read inches of mercury from 0- 30". 29.92" of mercury is considered perfect Vacuum at sea level. inches of water would be 0-407". 1 inch of mercury = 13.6 inches of water lift. Vacuum readings in inches of water are generally speaking used in electric Vacuum motors. And portable machines with electric vacuums you might see specifications stating 180" or 210" of water lift. But the guage on the machine will still read 0-30 inches of mercury. in short when mr Big Wood said set your mercury hg he was trying to say set your machines Vacuum relief to read between 14-15 on the 0-30 Vacuum guage. I hope you don't have mercury in your chem guage cus if you do you have some serious problems. Hopefully this clears things up for you
