Ruwac Upgraded the Throttle Cable on Early Entry Saw Vacuum Systems
Ruwac USA has redesigned and upgraded the throttle cable (part # 2501312C01) for its V1000 / GV10XLT early entry saw vacuum systems. This throttle cable design has been used in the aircraft industry for many years and Ruwac has customized its design to outfit and upgrade any existing units in the field.
The new HD throttle cable upgrade relocates the throttle location for better protection during transportation and operation while using a thicker cable diameter and heavy-duty cable sheath for durability and longer life expectancy. The upgrade includes a heavy-duty powder coated steel mounting bracket, and the cable utilizes a locking screw mechanism to provide the operator precise control of the engine’s operation and RPM.
The V1000 / GV10XLT is a specially designed gas-powered vacuum system paired with an on board HEC preseparation system designed for the collection of “green” concrete dust during early entry sawing applications.

Cortec’s MCI-2062 is another biological-based concrete surface cleaner similar to MCI-2061. Both MCI cleaners make use of the natural abilities of microorganisms to biodegrade their target waste substances effectively without the use of harsh acidic or alkaline products. However, where MCI-2061 focuses on the critical task of digesting hydrocarbon stains, MCI-2062 targets stains from organic wastes, proteins, fats, greases, and starches. It is therefore particularly suited to concrete heavily soiled by organic wastes in and around dumpsters, restrooms, and food processing facilities.
MCI-2062 is a multipurpose concentrated bio-enzymatic blend formulated for general cleaning on a variety of surfaces. It combines powerful cleaning chemistry with free enzymes and microorganisms capable of biodegrading a wide range of organic waste in order to leave facilities sparkling clean and odor-free. All the components work in synergy: cleaning agents lift and disperse the waste while enzymes work to speed up digestion by microorganisms.

Honda Engines New GC Series Models for Pressure Washers
Honda Engines launched two, all-new engines designed specifically to increase the performance of pressure washers—enhancing the user experience and making jobs easier.
Replacing the Honda GCV160 and GCV190, the Honda GCV170 and GCV200 pressure washer engines deliver more: more power and more torque for premium residential applications, along with a range of technological attributes, innovative features, and a simple design that make the new models even more reliable and easier to operate and maintain.
The power behind any pressure washer is its engine, and the core of the new Honda GCV170 and GCV200 pressure washer engines is true power output. Both engines offer best-in-class power and torque that deliver peak performance in the toughest of operating conditions. More power and torque from the engines allow the pump of a pressure washer to produce a steady, even amount of high pressure to the hose and cleaning attachment while reducing the need for the operator to repeat spray. • GCV170: an increase in torque of 18% and a 9% horsepower gain over the GCV160 • GCV200: an increase in torque of 13% and 10% horsepower gain over the GCV190
“The Honda GC Series…provides efficient power, superior fuel efficiency, and quiet operation for customers who rely on their outdoor power products to get jobs done,” said William Walton, vice president, Honda Power Equipment. “When it comes to pressure washing, the new Honda GCV170 and GCV200 models enhance our current GC Series, offering a host of added benefits— delivering more power and torque than earlier models and innovative design features that provide for an easy, enjoyable operating experience for consumers.”
Both pressure washer engines meet the SAEJ1349 net horsepower standard, which rates engine power with the muffler and air filter in place. This net standard rating accurately reflects real-world operating conditions.
