Water?

Postby Ace » Mon Apr 07, 2008 10:27 am

I never knew you could run water in a hydraulic pump. Well, at least not for very long, before the seals or something else lets go.

That's why you mix cutting fluid in the water at a 1:15 ratio.

Why couldn't you use the old heap you have with a 12V belt clutch from a mower? Or even an AC Compressor Clutch!

Still way overkill though... But when it's cheaper than a Harbor Freight powerwasher who cares?


I like that one!!!!!!Having a AC type clutch on it and all.............To bad it hasn't go a surp belt pulley.

Mower clutch, eh? That's a thought.

Think that an A/C clutch would be strong enough?

I see the thing having a giant pulley on it so that it doesn't spool itself to death... Hydraulic pumps all seem to be rated at 1000 RPM...

How about this mower clutch off eBay? It's local... Seems like the biggest horsepower tractors they had it on were in the 10-20 HP range though...

How much HP do you think I'm gonna pull?
