Yes, that is the standard configuration for all VARIO machines. Allow me to explain:
It would be a mistake for a person to buy an orbital machine for carpet cleaning without having the wheels on the ground. Without having wheels on the ground the machine will handle very poorly for carpet cleaning. A person would struggle with the machine and that's not reasonable. Wheels on the ground takes the machine from a hard to manage and uncomfortable experience to a smooth as silk Cadillac experience. So we've made a decision going forward to only offer the machine the way that it should be presented for the carpet cleaning industry.
We spend a lot of time with each machine. When they come to us from the manufacturer we disassemble each machine's oscillation bearing and pack it with marine-grade grease. That way it can be successfully used in a shower-feed application. We also carefully line up the swingarm assembly with a jig and template to drill the back of the machine to accept the swingarm. It's an exacting process. And if the machine will be getting a Spray & Shower-feed system we'll assemble, install, and bench test that as well. The steps we take with each machine consumes a fair amount of time, and adds real value compared to a standard ol' Lowboy.
What we've put together is a carefully designed machine. It's been meticulously thought out and innovated for our industry. We're modifying these machines so that they'll work properly for carpet cleaning. That's why we aren't willing to sell a model that delivers less. We want everyone who buys a VARIO to have 100% satisfaction with the machine (not 50% or even 75%). I think you'll find the VARIO design is a winner on every level!
