Time 5:15pm
Day Friday (of course)
My cell phone rings and my warehouse manager tells me that the coil on my Landa VNG 4-3000 (with 20,265 hours on it) just ruptured. I in turn call my Landa distributor and he promises that he will have a new coil and a repair tech at my shop Monday morning (I hate Mondays). This in most circumstances is perfect, my problem is that I have four cleaning shifts over the weekend and my #2 machine is out of commission. I have an Alladin 3.5-3000 portable unit for short term "emergencies" but for 16 hours of continuous use it gets old refilling both fuel tanks and it is way to loud. So my Landa distributor offers me a brand new HS-3000 hot box for the weekend, he even meets me at the crack of dawn on Saturday at his shop (they are closed) and helps me load this unit and sends me on my way. I plumbed it in to the VNG (about five minutes) and fired it up this thing is sweet!
I have never used a hot box before but this thing is great, 120 volt blower and an 8 gallon diesel tank.
