Anyone have one? Mine is from 1986, not used in 15+ years. ASC long out of business. No instructions on this unit which is electronic control. If I can't get it running, I may try to turn it into a manually operated device.
The pressure vessel is 40", the pump is a Hotsy 300 which was an OEM from Japan and they quit importing them in the late 80's, no spares available. The low pressure pump was rusted but I had a used spare. Ran it with low pressure and tried to fix the leaks. The high pressure hose leaked its entire length. The outer rubber coating had all rotted off. I turned on the high pressure pressure pump for a few seconds, it ran but with the condition of the hose I didn't want to apply any pressure to it. The high pressure pump is driven by a 110v motor. Not sure what my next step will be.
The Hotsy 300 pumkp has been out oif production for at least 20 years. Spare parts at that time were: check valves (6) $80 each, everything just as expensive. Hotsy has nothing in stock.
