Ritmo xl

[The Welshman]

Has anybody got a ritmo xl if yes how do they compare to the g4

 

[Vincey]

@vfr12 has he said it’s great machine

 

[Ftp321]

Can you still get them new

 

[Rossi46]

@vfr12 has done one. Anyone know his number? @BigBish

Not to my knowledge, it’s meant to have the same output as the slimline so I think that’s replaced the XL

In my honest opinion, the G4 is a better machine and option. Output is the same but the conveying distance will be different

Think he went to Europe and picked his up then drove back with it to England

 

[BigBish]

Ritmo xl pumps the same output and distance as the g4. Its a three phase machine. Vfr12 has a switchable one, 230/415v.

It also sprays thin coats, which is most of his work so for him why buy a g4 then a ritmo separately

Id have the xl any day, ived used it and its awesome, easier to transport than the g4 as well

Yeah ive got it but not sure he would want it put on here

I have always liked the XL. A modern version of the Monojet.

A G4 and Ritmo combined. I would like to know what it can spray on 240v. But I think there is only 2 in the country so it might be worth looking on the German ebay sites. The bad side is gravity feed and its priming and setting up problems as with the Ritmo but easier to transport.

For some reason Les Lord didn’t like them and never got into selling them.

 

[Vincey]

So what about parts if Welshman did go and buy one from Europe would he be able to order them from the dealers over here for the xl? It does look a beast

 

[Rossi46]

Don’t think the PFT crew take kindly to being bypassed

 

[Plasterers1StopShop]

Buy what the UK Dealers offer - there is a reason for them offering what they do. If you want their support, backup and availability on parts, that’s only fair in my opinion

 

[Vincey]

Was only asking out of curiosity lads as they do look a good machine to have , I’m more than happy with ritmo m

Because why would he sell 1 machine that did everything, when he can sell a g4 and a ritmo to people

f**k them if they wont order you one. Buyers decide what they want not the dealers

U can buy one from any pft dealer in the UK and Ireland

 

[theclemo]

Iv seen ramboo tools selling a xl

 

[McPlaster]

I like 3 phase mixer pumps, the variable speed might be very useful, single phase are prone to lack of umph and tripping, I keep the little ritmo M for small awkward domestics but have recently bought a Mai sirius three phase variable but haven't used it on site yet, it don't eat anything and was very cheap.

 

[smoother09]

Gayest thread ever!! Should be a separate forum imo! Machine heads or sommat

I can't understand a word those f**k**g Brummies speak. Need a bloody translated in my own country.

Do you still have the Mai G4? A machine not talked about much in the UK

 

[McPlaster]

I do Rigsby, like the build quality of Mai, on a par with PFT, the sirius pump has the same motor and switchgear as the G4 so for the money I could if it don't work out cannibalize it. Hope your retirement is going to plan.

Mai are a great brand. We have spoken to them several times and worked with them - quite pricey but very innovative
