    Thank you for this video! I’m coming from an IceBear to a Zamboni 540, and wow, it’s a learning experience. This video completely explains why the Zam has been so jumpy when I give it gas- because I have had that throttle all the way forward. Can’t wait to use this knowledge out for a smoother, more consistent drive!

    Soo i was at the arena in the next town over today doing propane training. Of course when i was done i went to talk turkey with their ice man, i comented how bright and wet the ice looked even tho it hadn't been done.. he told me they put 1 pump of floor soap(ph7 neural cleaner)in the wash water, thats what makes it look bright amd shiny. Does anyone else have any expertise with this tip?

    No, wash water has its benefits when used under heavy ice use. As soon as you put your conditioner down, making your turn towards the boards, turning your augers on as soon as the conditioner is down, adjust blade for depth, turn your flood and wash water on. Once you’ve reached the boards, turn your board brush on. If you start at the furthest blue line, count to 10, you should be at the corner, turn your pump on. If you start at Center or furthest blue line, turn your pump on once you’ve reached are out of the corner. Complete your flood, once you’ve reached are making your way to the machine room, turn your wash water off at the blue line closest to your machine room, let the pump suck up remaining water, there is enough prime left over from that distance. Once you’ve reached reach the threshold with your rear tires STOP the machine, idle down, pump off then lift your conditioner, DO NOT DRAG THE CONDITIONER ACROSS THRESHOLD. Once inside your machine room, leave machine idle and rinse your augers (after snow dump). Wash Water is always filled with COLD water.

  • @syphadeous
    @syphadeous 2 місяці тому

    The 500 series machines have the benefits of having a governor, meaning you can set the speed with the handle position just at the conditioner on the little decal (sticker) and you can press the pedal right down to,the ground and you will only do between 5 and 6 mph. 400 series units, there is a post below the pedal, if you raise that bolt, then you can only push the pedal down so far. Your speeds, from ass at blue to ass at blue should be between 7 and 9 seconds.

  • @enthused7591

    Dang I figured there was a tractor or Zamboni type of vehicle that would do most of that spraying for you. Hand spraying the ice looks like a ton of time and work.

    • @isaaclalonde123
      @isaaclalonde123 Місяць тому

      In my experience at our rink this is caused by going too fast on the ice. If you slow down and get other drivers to slow down you should get rid of the ripples through cutting normally

    Is this what you are showing the collector pipes/canal? if so, is it usually located only along one of the short sides of the rink? do i understand well this is located along one of the short sides close to the refrigeration plant?

  • @lluhu
    @lluhu 4 місяці тому

    hi there, I would very much appreciate if you could give me an answer. In my project, I can't place all the refrigeration plant (250m2 or 2700 square feet) in the same floor as the ice field for reasons of space. I could place 50m2 (550 square feet) in the ice field level and the rest (200m2) in the floor directly above. Or I could put it all together in the floor above. What of the two options makes more sense in your opinion? If placed in two levels, roughly what would make sense to locate in each? im considering an indirect CO2 transcritical system. Any input would be very appreciated.

  • @Fire_EMS711
    @Fire_EMS711 4 місяці тому

    Love the video! Couple questions, these are only done for dry cuts I'm guessing? And are they good to do after having hockey players skate around the face-off dots a million times leaving really deep grooves and ruts in the ice in those areas (I play hockey so can be blamed for causing this problem too lol)? The rink I work at has this problem a lot and now that we're getting into our busy season with public skates and college games/practices the times for a good ice maintenance session has shrunk quite a lot. On average we have 10 minutes between events for wet cuts (a few 15min ones sprinkled in here and there) except for the closing cuts but every so often we'll have 30+ minutes so try to squeeze in a dry and a wet in those slots, but the ice is still really tore up by the end of the night.

  • @yogriff1
    @yogriff1 4 місяці тому

    You wouldn't have sharpened, you replace them. They do gouge though, but that's when making an extreme cut/turn with a small radius. They're a personal preference -- i doubt the white plastic would stand up to a shot over 85mph. But they're fun for public skate. They have to be oiled WELL to be able to use them a second time.
