    Top tip. To save your digging head and replacement parts. Don't stop in yhe slurry. It sucks back grit wearing out the ceramic inside

    You might want to increase your CFM a bit. It seems that your hose doesn't want to take up the rocks with the slurry.

    • @Hydrovacjack
      @Hydrovacjack  6 месяцев назад +2

      It sucks up everything, but I do have a leak in my hose which is limiting the suction a bit so I need to fix that. When I dump the rocks are huge.🤷‍♂️

      @@michaelhaze4507Not unless you already have enough capital to buy a truck outright. They cost about $15,000/month to rent or rent to own and that’s before fuel, insurance, maintenance, repairs etc. That’s for brand new and depends on the truck. If the truck is paid off you will make decent profit. Most companies charge between $250-$350 CAD/hr. And if you don’t have your truck(s) put on site every single day you’re losing a lot of money.
