Good day, I have pressure washer Bertolini pump ttk 2130 1450 rpm 24mm shaft attach to Hertz 1d81z diesel engine with 3000 rpm 24mm shaft, currently on gearbox setup but now the gearbox is leaking so i want to convert to belt drive pulley, my question is what are the sizes of the pulley i need? thank you in advance
Hey, thank you for putting out so much good content! I was wondering, could you put out another video about your 24V softwash system? Have you guys been having good luck with them still, is there any new information, etc? Also, have you been having any issues with them being mounted sideways on the front of your systems? I was looking through the manual for some wiring specs and found out it says to only mount them horizontally... After I mounted mine like yours! LOL
@@southeastsoftwash4020 I must have worded my question in an odd way, but the diagrams right on that page show the concern I have with mounting the pump on a wall. It says that mounting the pump with the feet down is correct, and mounting the pump with feet sideways would stop their "motor armor" system from functioning. Have you guys been experiencing problems mounting your 24V pumps in that manner?
@@BracTheRock the only pump we ever mounted like that was on the demo truck we took to the trade show a year ago. Every single other one has been mounted feet down. Check out this vid to see examples: ruclips.net/video/OXAZywRAEg8/видео.html
Crushn it have you thought about getting the front or side of the pressure washing skid cut put like you did the reel deals to say something like Souther shooter or Souther Soaker cool names for the skids or the new shooter tips 🤔 just my 2 cents
I have 2 questions 1- why do some belt drive systems have such a short belt they are really small compared to this unit which I’d say is normal 2- why are the components so hard to find ?
Off topic question! Have you guys ever had water seeping issues? Running into a customers home from doors. I am trying to find a product to put at the bottom of doors, but the top of our door is actually where our leaking happens too. Any advice?
It can happen if they’ve got poor weather seals. Problem is you may not be able to even see that from outside. Check out the customer contract “terms & conditions” on the home page on our site. It’s a “cover your butt” for stuff like that
Hi, I have a few questions on belt drive units. 1. Can I converted an existing honda GX690 8.0 gpm belt drive to a gear drive? Is it possible to use the same pump? Or that need to be changed? 2. On a belt drive unit. Is it better to have a single belt for the pulley or have the individual belts. I only ask because if a single belt breaks will it cause more damage on the engine? Compare to having individual ones and one breaks. 3. When is the best time or hours to replace belts? Thanks
1. yes, just make sure the shaft size on the gear box is the same as your pumps shaft, make sure the gear reduction is the same as your pump rpm. You can't use the same pump. direct drive pumps have female connection and gearbox/belt pumps have a male shaft
Has to do with the stroke distance on the pistons. It’s possible to Get a direct drive to run just fine off a tank, but it’s a better idea to just get a gear or belt drive unit and be done with it
@@southeastsoftwash4020 I bought a direct drive when I started out, its a honda gx390 4gpm, is it possible to just change the pump and keep the engine? Could I get a belt drive pump running on my engine?

Great video. Would LOVE an ongoing series on the equipment building & maintenance.
Can you please make a maintenance playlist?
Thanks guys! Sitting here in my driveway with my first belt drive unit. Your video was super helpful!
Hello excellent tutorial
I’m looking to purchase power washer parts & equipment. Does your go to guy have website to purchase ?
Thank you
New Subscribers and you guys have some great looking equipment! 👍🏻
Perfect video
👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😂❤️.Thanks for the tutorial. Would keeping a spare belt on the truck be cost effective?
I’d absolutely recommend to keep a belt on hand.
They are cheap

You are reading the manual wrong.
See page 8 of the “mounting instructions” section here: m.northerntool.com/images/downloads/manuals/157155.pdf

@@southeastsoftwash4020 OH you guys have a little shelf mounted there below the pump, I see now. Thank you for the replies!
Excellent information. Can you convert direct drive to belt drive ?.
the pump can't, the engine can. when the pump dies replace it with a new skid for belt drive and a pump
if you use a gearbox you can keep your direct drive skid and just replace the pump.
Great info!

Yea but just adds extra cost.
I’d love to do that, but Biden already has everything costing way too much as it is 😦

1. yes, just make sure the shaft size on the gear box is the same as your pumps shaft, make sure the gear reduction is the same as your pump rpm. You can't use the same pump. direct drive pumps have female connection and gearbox/belt pumps have a male shaft

Thanks for all information. That helps a lot...
Why doesn't a direct drive pull water from a buffer like a belt or gear drive?
some direct drives do pull water. i had mine on a buffer tank for nearly 2 seasons before it failed and i replaced it with a gear drive
@@JD-yx7be Some?
@@Rick-kp6wf most don't but some do. It is better to get belt/gear drive to make sure it does
