Greg/sd has one, he'll probably comment - I've ran it with my 9gpm and with 8 gpm, it runs really good. I think he swapped out the 1/4" jumper hose for 3/8" and it runs like a charm!! :yes:

When I first got mine I hated it,then I put a big guy handle and rear wheels on it and I love it. You will need at least 7 gpm to run it efficently preferably more. you put 10 gpm through it and it will sing. but if your buying it for restaurant type work its to big a big guy is a better choice.

If you have been using a hydrotek surface cleaner your going to love any of the whisper wash products.

question to ask I have read specs they state that can be run on gpm: 4-10 but on on the forums I have read that you need mor the 8gpms so who is right.

4-10gpm Chris thats the minimum to maximum flow rating by the manufacturer.

Operators have found that at least 7 to 8 gpm minimum is the effective gpm to warrant the use of the maxima.

We love the Maxima. You need at least 8 gpm to clean efficiently. On maintanance accounts 8 gpm pushes the Maxima great and you can move quickly.

Is that a two machines setup going into one, or its some crazy powerflow pump and machine?

I think it was a 8gpm and a 5.5 gpm, and he removed the smaller hose from the gun to the swivel.

I have wondered why manufactures have such smaller hose than industry standard (3/8") between the gun and the swivel (some look like 5/16"),.. it may have a positive effect on the fluid dynamics in the swivel, dont know. Mosmatic does the same thing I did not change mine, but I only run 8 gpm in a 30" SC

Nigel change the jumper hose to 3/8 or 1/2 inch you will notice a differance.
