Landa Water Jet

Does anybody make a surface cleaner with at least a 3/8 inch hose to attach to.I have used a landa,hydrotek ant3,steel eagle and the hoese are only 1/4.There is no way you can get full flow with 1/4 hose with much more than 5 or 6 gpms is there?

I think my BE surface cleaner has 3/8 hose. It's definitely thicker than the one on my Mosmatic. And at half the price, it actually works faster than the Mosmatic.

Al, You can change the plumbing on the surface cleaner if you want to, anything is possible with the right fittings.

On all my surface cleaners I change the hoses to 3/8" from the coupler at the handle to the swivel on the deck. I don't use the guns on the surface cleaners.

Chris the Landa swivel is 1/4 inch inside the inlet.

Landa has a one new, one piece arm about $28. It uses 1/4 inch tips instead of the old 1/8th inch. Chris used it for the first time last night and he said he loves it. It is welded so there there are no adjustments, but coming out of adjustment was one of the biggest problems with that SC.

They are great surface cleaners but the swivels cost over $400.
I am looking for a one piece arm on the cyclone where can I get one ?
 
Tony,

Do you know of a "local" store that would stock the wheels or tires for the WaterJet? I have checked Tractor Supply but no luck. If not local then do you have an online source?

I think you can buy replacements that will work at Harbor Freight.

I got a question for the guys who sell surface cleaners and unions...

I am going to buy another sc (if I decide not to buy that landa)

What Surface cleaners are rated for 11 gpm?
I currently run that 36" and a 24" steel eagle....have no idea what they are rated for.

What is the smallest I can go down to if properly nozzled?
What can happen if these unions are rated say 6-8 and you run 11gpm
will you reach a point that the cleaning will be substandard or will he cause damage to pump?
I thought most unions were about the same as rate?

Lastly ....With my set up this Landa is no good for me? Cannot be upgraded some how to accommodate me?

Thanks

Al I don't believe the GPM ratings mean much, and nothing that is going to affect the pump as long as the psi is same. I bet the internals are the same whether the swivel is tapped for 1/4" or 3/8". How many bars do your 11gpm cleaners have?
 
Thanks for the parts list guys. My waterjet is used and also missing some parts. According to the manual, I'm missing several bearings? The only two I found were inside the rotary union. I assume they went out since the unit started vibrating so badly. My extension tube is also grooved. Anyone happen to have a rotary union breakdown guide? I'm having a heck of a time getting the bearings off and I don't want to damage anything. I also had a spring, cap and o ring shoot out while I had my back turned and I want to make sure I have all the parts, not to mention having them in the right order. Thanks in advance.

If I do go that route, do you have a link to the supplier of the kit or do you just buy a few parts and retrofit?

From the diagram Al provided me with, someone removed the lower bearing long ago. I assume it was due to failure since the tube was gouged. The crazy thing is, the machine ran for a couple years before it started vibrating. I had no idea it was missing a bearing and it's probably what caused the Rotary Union bearing to finally give out. That's after two years of being my primary. Anyway, I'd really like to get it back up and running before my backup fails me. If anyone could help me out on a source for the mossmatic I'd greatly appreciate it. Thank you guys.

My landa just started vibrating and seized in seconds of vibrating. Not sure what needs to be replaced, but I will need to do so as soon as possible.

Ron is your conversion easy? I'll text you today because I need to get this up and running fast.

Thank

Let me ask my guys, have not followed up. Usually no news means good news

So, has anyone converted a different rotary union to the Landa Water Jet?

If so, who makes it and how much does it cost and where do you buy it?

How much is the regular rotary union?

Thank You.
 
The waterjets work great but they're too expensive to repair/maintain. Better off going with a Whisper wash unit IMO. I even have a Great Plains surface cleaner I bought with some other equipment that works ok. The whole surface cleaner is cheaper the the rebuild kit for the landa.
 
Ron can you give a breakdown if what all you're doing with these?

My Landa has seen better days and I'd like to rebuild it.
