Our Machine VS. The Competition

BEARING SYSTEM
Our Machine	The Competition
Stainless steel sealed ball bearings	Bronze bushings and metal thrust bearing.
Result: Maintenance free	Result: Requires disassembly and grease approx. every 2 weeks (every 12,000 lbs. ice) to prevent seize-up and rust.
SHAFT DESIGN
Threaded shaft is screwed into the blade wheel to tighten against a 1 3/8" shaft collar.	Plain shaft with a pin through the shaft and aluminum impeller.
Result: Superior start-up torque strength.	Result: The starting torque will snap the pin or wobble out the pin hole in the softer aluminum metal blade wheel.
MOTOR AND BELT COVER CONSTRUCTION
Polyethylene plastic. Removed from the machine by only one thumb screw and two wing nuts. Cover also unplugs from the motor.	Stainless steel. Removal from the machine requires removal of a thumb screw, two wing nuts and 7 phillip head screws. Most of the phillip head screws are held only by the threads tapped into the 18 gauge metal. Removal of the cover is required to change the blades and for bearing lubrication. In time they rattle.
Result: Rattle free. Fast access blade changes when necessary.	Result: Routine removal of the phillip head screws to conduct regular maintenance results in cross threading and/or distruction of the few threads holding the screws in place, leading to obsessive rattle during operation. Additionally, if the machine is secured for mobile use, maintenance access to the screws on the back of the machine is impossible.
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & SAFETY CERTIFICATIONS
Fully certified by the most respected independent testing labs in the world.	NOT CERTIFIED.
Result: Machine can be operated in municipalities that require health & safety certifications.	Result: Machine CANNOT be operated in municipalities that require health & safety certifications.
LEGS CONSTRUCTION
Cast aluminum leg design.	Fabricated metal leg design with multiple, closed, inside 90' corners that trap water.
Result: Leg design meets the certification standards of the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation).	Result: Leg design traps water, making NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certification impossible.
DOORS FRAMES & FLAPS
Cast aluminum door and frame. Handle with magnetic latch.	Frameless, eighteen gauge steel flap.
