Heavy Duty Cimex October 30 2003 at 3:14 PM		Anonymous

Some of you may remember a 48HD that I won on an ebay bid a few weeks back. Well finally the seller got off his a$$ and shipped it to me and I received it yesterday. She's not purty, at the moment, but she shore does purr like a kitten! Here are some before pics. After we get 'er ready for inspection, we'll take some snapshots of it. > > > > Scott $c00tEr

The pics displayed were stock pictures, probably from the Cimex website.

Believe it or not, I'm thrilled with the purchase. I don't really care about paint - that can be redone for pretty cheap. Where it counts, the internals, are in fantastic condition. I started taking it apart already.

New, it's a $4,000 machine. I paid $930 w/shipping - a steal in my book.

For $930 it is a steal. If it really cost $4000 then is not the Cyclone, I guess different model.
$c00tEr where did you got that name fond, from jImMy? LOL.

No it's not the CR48SP Cyclone Scrubber Polisher that you have Chris. It's the R48HD Scarifier. It's designed for scarifying concrete floors. It will remove forklift rubber, paint, etc from warehouse floors. It can be used for honing marble, terrazzo, concrete, etc too. It weighs 132 pounds, and with the added weights it weighs in at 207 pounds. It's a monster!

And yes it was a steal!
Well done Scott
