[@mauriciovilchez7150]

Thank you for taking the time to help US, you save me a lot Of money to replace my blower, I used your technique and also spray the inside with mineral spirit many time almost half a gallon into the blower casing, finally after two days of trying I finally unlocked the impellers. God Bless You always

[@marcozavala3945]

Thank you for your video, the only one I found that really helped me get my pump unstuck, you send me a chunk of cash, thank you for having taken the time to do a well explained video.

[@vacuum123]

Thanks for the feedback, Marco! I'm happy to hear that the video helped you.

[@ianhopper4981]

[@jimlloyd5650]

I used my dad's machine to go do a carpet job around 2021 and I got a stuck blower. Only time in 25+ years of cleaning for that rig. His machine is a vanguard 18hp with a 3006 blower in vertical position, much like in this video. At the time, I'd never had the issue before and I didn't know it was a stuck blower. I just knew the engine wouldn't turn over by key or pull string. I pulled as hard as I could. The customer even tried pulling it 😅. So I had to bail on the job and bring it home to let my dad troubleshoot. The next day he said he put a pry bar through the blower pulley spokes and pushed it over. Freed it up. After that, he and I decided to investigate the gear oil on the blower. Interestingly, the oil was way too high. My guess is the previous application for the blower was in horizontal position so it had much more oil in it than it needed. We drained it to proper level and it's been fine since. My dad has never and will never use wd40 on shut down. That was never a technique when he got the machine in the 90s. I'm not saying that's a good thing, I'm just pointing out that blowers can take massive abuse as compared to more picky equipment. Great video thanks

Thanks for taking the time to make a video.

[@andrewlutz7045]

The "works every time" solution did it for me. Thank you!!! Been running a few hundred hours since unsticking and cleaning. Bad filter failure avoided being expensive.

[@Regg363]

Mine, was stuck. I had a 2x4x24” long, I hit the pulley once and it broke loose the I turned it by hand. The went and did a carpet job, couch cushions and four rugs. Saved me $$$$

[@michaelleal4686]

Wow, thanks dude, that takes a little time but you really helped me out with that little direct hit with hammer n wood,just a light hit n bam it's loos.?!:) That's crazy cool,simple n dirt cheap to maintain it,anyone can get a block of wood n hit it with a frkn stone if needed.lol Simple but Successful...

[@scott5690]

Worked perfectly, you are awesome.

[@TrendyBromando]

Yep i always lube the blower at the end of the work day that is a step that never ever ever gets skipped

[@alexj1188]

My.prochem truckmount dosent want to turnover Any suggestions or advice

[@chadsmith7793]

This is perfect. I have a machine that was left idle six months. I found the blower stuck and thought omg 1200-1700 bucks. All it ended up costing me was my time. and a can of 3 n 1. Thanks so much for making this video. I used a handle from a small claw hammer as a wooden punch. and it turned the rotor a few degrees when I smacked it with the other hammer. Then I went back to the pipe wrench as you recommend. absolutely perfect

[@BillHartBtCarpetCare]

Excellent video Sir,

[@Johnsurdi]

Works every time!! Thank you!!

[@spugsautorepair]

I like the fact that you recommended using a synthetic for the Vacuum pumps, but you should have named the product. Aeon PD is the name. Also, Prochem recommends Aerokroil for regular lubrication. Good video, brother.

[@danielgalvan7999]

Hi, do i have to take it a part, i fill it with diesel in there now for 4 day and haven't loose yet, what you recommend me thank you.

[@yazeed3881]

By gears broke and My shaft moves very little but I feel like that was the main cause for my gears to grind and break. Could you show how to stop it from moving? Thank you

[@jamesross4350]

What blower comes with the hydramaster Spitfire 4.0? It looks like you have the same unit

[@brandonbrianchannel3496]

Awesome 👍

[@seansadventures-flyingtrav7901]

Thank you Thank you!!!

[@jammy46235]

Hey I was wondering my shaft broke on my blower and a it possible to order new blower lobes

[@mserrato587]

Hi Mister Judson! I got a roots 47 that is making a clicking noise any idea what that will be? Thank you.

[@rifgman]

You are awesome thank you so much it worked like a charm

[@fcweddington]

great video. I love it when people take the time to do these. really helps people save money. I have a question, though. I'm using an old Hydra-Cat S-Model. I just refilled it with grease...until it came out of the overflow bleeders. About a week later, I'll notice little puddles of grease coming out of my blower. It's 100% the exact same color. Is there some kind of grease seal that needs replaced? I'm worried about a fire in the exhaust. The grease that comes out smells burnt.

[@Acoustic_Theory]

You have to be careful not to jam the grease in there too quickly (no air-operated or electric-operated grease guns) because the pressure will invert the seals on the bearings and the grease will come out around the shaft. I'm guessing that's what happens and new front bearing seals will be needed.

[@Lakeside54321]

Thank you for the video.... good information!

[@m.c.ddelgado7374]

My blower loses suction can you fixed for me I can ship to you

[@m.c.ddelgado7374]

Hi if I send you my blower can you repair please let me know

[@XER239]

Is there a electric clutch available for these blowers (roots 36) like on the cat pumps?

[@yazeed3881]

Try napa

[@XER239]

meaning, ever configured with one or possible

[@davidbrown9079]

Does anyone know the brand / type of 3 in 1 oil he uses?

[@m.c.ddelgado7374]

Where you located

[@curtisnilsson2554]

I used wd40 , poured it right in the blower and it became unstuck within the hour . Janitors warehouse quoted me over 2 grand to replace . I was able to turn it by hand with the pulley . Techs should be spraying wd40 or something similar into the blower lune port every use so there is no issue with rust

[@javieramador216]

Hey it's a lot info thks u

[@vacuum123]

Did it work?

[@ChumpMasterSupreme]

WD-40 is what you should use. Preferably TKX. The WD in WD40 stands for water displacement. You want to rid the blower of any moisture lol.

[@kinglycabar7858]

Thanks bro!

[@fcweddington]

My dump tank was not full and I know it's not the water pump. It's happened during my last two jobs - just a random puddle that will eventually stop.

[@spugsautorepair]

No, the seal isn't bad, you just used too much grease. Only give it three pumps once a month.

[@Carlitosway211]

That's a HUB not a bushing.

[@CharlieWayneAdventures]

Every Time! Lol
