ryko monarch hi Impact

[@sunshinesuds]

I’m glad this one is still running. I’m setting up chemical on one in Bradenton. You’d be amazed how many parts are still available.

[@carwashnews]

Enjoy it while it lasts. That machine is one arch rotate motor away from being obsolete. Really neat it’s still around.

[@hyuga360death]

I the the arch motor is going because the monarch rarely ever get used compared to the voyager and since the previous owner passed away and my cousin now owns I he has no clue what the hell he is doing so it's most likely hasn't been greased or lubed up and if I find out he goes to get rid of them I will jump his rear and make him give them to me haha

[@sunshinesuds]

We still carry the Trolley & Rotate motor. It’s the same as the US2001 OHD/Pulse.

[@bpot1927]

glad this location is still running, i remember the videos you shot at this location years and years ago

[@bigburgerboi2005]

Great video, hopefully you can revisit the voyager soon as my local one bit the dust in january! :(

[@hyuga360death]

I will be going thru soon

[@PNWcarwashchannel]

@@hyuga360death glad to hear, my local one reopened recently but it did some HORRIBLE damage to my car as it suffered a HUGE malfunction when I went through it! I actually got the whole thing on Camera! You should see the video for yourself it’s not pretty

As the Sit In Car Wash center in Syracuse has closed down, are the oldest operating car wash systems in the USA are at Ashland Car Wash in Ashland & Clearview Car Wash in Hanover?

Definitely get some grease in that arm motor, it’s beggin for it! I work for an express wash and we grease about 1-2 times a week. Glad your cousin owns it now, just please keep up with the maintenance! It’ll be your biggest downfall if not kept up with..

[@hyuga360death]

I'm gonna get on his ass to start the maintenance on it because I can see and hear a few things that need to be worked on it

[@CarwashReviewsFlorida]

@@hyuga360death One thing for sure, these babies still have life left in them! I think you could potentioally get another 8-10 more years out of them. One thing I'd be big on is pressure washing and finding chemicals that will keep aluminum from rusting and decaying, and change the filament brushes from time-to-time. If you need a resource to go to for filament brushes, your best option is a company that makes brush material and has been used in Ryko, Mark VII, etc. Favagrossa italian material, and I believe I've seen a link on their website for filament material. If you have ANY questions about up-keep/maintenance I am your go-to and wouldn't mind answering any questions. Like I said, I work at an express wash, and I've been well accustomed to keeping things up to par on that aspect. Let me know what his plans on when you get a chance!

[@AdamsCarWashVids]

I think probably the reason why the Voyager is right up at the back of the bay it’s probably so that way the customers can easily guide themselves then as they don’t have to worry about how far over either side they are at

[@hyuga360death]

Maybe but would be harder to to be more center if machine is in the way back idk my cousin owns it now so I'll have to talk to him

[@sunshinesuds]

I wonder if this one is new enough to have a Mitsubishi controller. The one I take care of is an Omron.

[@hyuga360death]

Hmmm I'm not sure I do know it was installed around 2004 same with the voyager because before the monarch it was some weird ancient touch free thing and the voyager had an R7B

[@sunshinesuds]

@@hyuga360death it’s crazy you can get so much for it off of astromatic

[@ryanthenascarguy4871]

Where is this car wash again?

[@carwashconnoisseur7216]

Is it normal for car wash KZbinrs after they’ve recorded their car wash video, they felt they should have done something a bit better for a future better car wash video for their next car wash video they’ll film?

[@hyuga360death]

I would probably say yes to it because everyone wants to figure or try new ways or tricks to improve there videos so that the viewers can see a better video if the system or maybe use better cameras or tripods for better videos

[@ryanthenascarguy4871]

How's the Voyager doing?

[@hyuga360death]

The voyager is still up and running if u see at the end of the video is stationed at the very end of the wash bay which is definitely not normal but I don't know now if that's the new home position or what it's under new ownership and the was wash saying please deposit money so I believe it's all good

[@bpot1927]

@@hyuga360death ive see alot of voyagers stationed at the end.. even if you look at the voyager factory video, most of them are positioned at the end

[@sunshinesuds]

Is this one still open?

[@hyuga360death]

@sunshinesuds it's been closed for 2 years now but I think there gonna open it back up in the spring I saw someone starting to redo the paint on the building
