Clean-up a blast

-

AGRICULTUR­AL machinery maintenanc­e costs can be substantia­lly reduced by vigilant, preventati­ve, maintenanc­e programs.

Farm machinery and equipment should be kept clean as a first step in spotting potential problems – for example, engine or hydraulic oil leaks, or premature or excessive wear.

For a limited time, farmers can buy top quality Aussie Pumps blasters at clearance prices from dealers across the country.

The huge sale, billed as the Aussie Pumps Gals Gotta Go program, is a result of the company changing from galvanised steel frames to new stainless steel models.

The blasters in the clearance must be sold by year end as the company is already in high gear with the production of the new stainless steel range.

Prices for the clearance models start from $1498 plus GST.

Aussie Pumps manufactur­es a unique range of high-pressure water blasters, ideal for machinery maintenanc­e and farm wash-down.

The Aussie Scud series engine drive blasters deliver a combinatio­n of flow and pressure that facilitate­s fast, efficient cleaning.

Typical of this range is the Scud 351.

Product manager Mal Patel said the Aussie Scud 351 has been hugely successful in many cleaning applicatio­ns.

“This is a huge opportunit­y to get the best and safest blasters at a great low price,” he said.

The clearance includes models with Honda GX390 petrol engines with either recoil or electric start.

A diesel drive version, using a Yanmar L100 10hp electric start engine, is also part of the clearance program.

The heart of the machine is a Big Berty, Bertolini triplex pump that delivers 21 lpm flow.

The slow-speed, gearbox drive pump has a pressure capability of 2600 psi.

That combinatio­n makes it ideal for stripping dirt and mud from machinery.

The machine comes in a unique Aussie Scud, hot galvanised one-piece steel frame with four big 13” pneumatic tyred wheels.

The Scud design, a unique Australian developmen­t, provides a combinatio­n of OH&S friendly features, with ergonomics not found on any other machines. This special offer is available from Australian Pump Industries, and authorised distributo­rs through Australia.
