I sent you a PM yesterday.

When the machine travels rear to front, the front arms should retract using the front arm return solenoid. While the gauge setting is 60PSI, it will usually be set a little less than 60 as normal return pressure. There is a small flow control valve used to soften the retract so they don't slam...

PM sent. I'll need your serial number to determine which side blaster manifold option you have in order to send drawings.

That's great news! If you are having issues with the retract, in addition to the retract pressure regulator and to the needle valve used to soften it, make sure the air cylinder hinge clevis pins are lubricated too. You should be able to shift those pins up/down to ensure good movement.

It depends on what type of coinbox you are using. If it is a Ryko coinbox, it's likely using network arming, so you would need to troubleshoot the network. If you are using someone else's activation, it should be sending a 24VDC signal to the PLC. Package 1 is input X30, package 2 is X31, etc...

If you are asking about the filter bag with the spring, that was P/N 11987-001, but unfortunately is no longer available. If you are asking about the 18-1/2" diameter dust bag option, while we don't have them, Vintage Parts has our older inventory and they have the 16941-001 bags in stock...

That part is available at Carolina Pride. The part number is KIT4-211-41, and includes the valve, actuator and GC valve. They do have them in stock.

Mike, you can try Wood Bros out of Lincoln, NE too. https://www.woodbrosind.com/home.php?cat=258

Typical stone chips, and agree with Dan there is no way the wash caused that. What I have seen is someone using the color-match waxes to hide imperfections, and any foam material can remove that which reveals them.

If your US2001 OHD is a unit with trolley ultrasonic sensors, is your PLC output Y32 on, or is Y31 on instead? Y32 is control power and needs to be on for the coinbox to detect the machine is ready to wash. A code 74 should clear on it's own if the sensors are OK once it runs a complete wash...

We are hoping to have it available, but not initially.

The "connected solution" will be at ICA through a portal and app. New units are shipping with the components to bring a machine online. Initially, the connected solution will include machine status notifications, diagnostics codes/sequences with descriptions and counts with future updates to...

No, our PLC programmer for the SGMX5 has been with us for several years, and is still writing the code. I'm glad to hear you are satisfied and that it's cleaning well!

For the elbows where the nozzles are mounted, those are all supposed to be set to an angle of about 30 degrees in the same direction. As that manifold is supposed to be free spinning, it's rotated by the inertia generated from the angle of the nozzles. If someone has straightened them so they...

The NCS P/N is 12687-015.

At the MAC panel on the right side of the machine, turn off the air going to the machine, then dump the residual air from the system. Does the TB drop? It should drop completely. If not, I'd suspect you have either a bind in the bearings, or something catching on the counterweight to prevent...

I don't know what vintage machine you have, but if it's one with an FX3U PLC and there are arming options for a "onboard drive thru dry" that can be added to each individual package. If it's intermittent, does it follow a specific wash package? If so, just turn off that arming bit for that...

You can use roll-bar padding from someplace like Summit motorsports, Jeggs, or Speedway motors. Just check on the ID before you purchase.

It sounds like your tire photoeye PLC input X20 isn't transitioning properly. In the brush sequences, as the machine travels reverse, it's monitoring that set of photoeyes so it will decelerate properly when they detect the rear tires and slow the machine down while it washes around the rear of...

If you go with on-board dry, and you have 30'-6" free and clear space, a Softgloss MAXX would be able to wash up to an 18'-6" long vehicle completely (top brush coming off the back of an SUV). Slightly longer on sedans. You should be able to wash longer vehicles with a 5 brush as the machine...
