    Need a belt driven pressure washer for a mobile rig, anyone know where to get one in Canada? It has to be able to run off of a tank and not a hose. Any help would be appreciated.

    may i ask why you need a belt driven one? they are big and expensive. 2 i have worked on have run in excess of 5GPM.

    I need one that will run off a still water tank, not a presurized hose.

    Ben Berg Farm Equipment in Wainfleet carries some. I suggest checking out the yellow pages for other farm supply stores maybe a bit closer to you.

    Just passes by Bergs twice today LOL. Bergs is a bit pricey. A way aroung a belt driver is to run a HVLP inline pump from the tank to the pressure washer, I have done this before.

    as long as you find a pump that is suction rather than pressure you should be ok. i use cat, comet, general pumps that are suction pumps and they work fine. just make sure you get a by pass kit so you dont over heat the pump when not being used but running

    +1. Mines an IP out of Italy hooked up to a 12hp Kohler with electric start. If you can afford it, I would recommend electric start as well. You'll tire of the pull start in a real hurry. PM sent.
