First day with Ritmo.

[User___removed]

For a man with so much machine knowledge you should know the M100 is the equivalent to a Ritmo.

Also, we won't sell 240v machinery and will always stand by that until Sites / Main contractors / public liability insurance are all happy with it

Most people who use ritmo's don't work on site I would say
Saying that I'm on a small site tomorrow with one!!!

 

[Plasterers1StopShop]

To be fair, a lot of guys who have 3 phase don't do big sites either.

It's whatever suits your requirements at the end of the day

What type of work do you do then, I thought you were mainly domestic.

Mainly work for builders doing full refurbs and one off builds.
Don't touch internal site work as a rule but may look at going into externals if I have to.

If I really really have to that should say.

I didn't say they don't use them on sites mate. We have a good split of customers who do domestic, sites or a mix of both using 3 phase.

So I've used the machine about 6 times now. Starting to get he hang of it. Got set up and clean up pretty sorted, don't need the sheet guide any more, have phoned Ian a few times in a panic but it's been sorted quick enough.
Worst bit was when we used 2 colours and I forgot to refill water chamber and jammed it with powder. Had to renew rotor and stator after that.
Here's a small job from yesterday. Was only about 18m but thought we just use the machine.
Here's a vid of me spraying, any more tips/ advice appreciated

One thing I still feel like a gimp with is when I'm moving the sprayer while spraying around scaffold tubes or awkward bits, end up spraying everything.

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. I'm not into all that mate apart from googles. I usually wear them but I must admit I'm quite slack and it's a case of when I remember!

 

[Rigsby]

Goggles spraying is a must. I got shot in the eye once from 2 m . That was an a&e job. Fortunately I washed the cement out within 1 minute but the grit scratched my retina quite bad.

 

[PFTwales]

Trouble with goggles etc they steam up. Those tight mesh goggles are good i think jainsaw users use them wen there using the things they use

 

[user__removed]

Nice to hear your enjoying work josh.
I'm bored of spraying now, where do I go from here?
