When it comes to municipal work, efficiency is the name of the game. Typically there is a set amount of funding available for each job, and being able to accomplish the task just under or substantially under that number can mean the difference between breaking even and turning a profit.

With budget-consciousness and profitability in mind, Vacall recently introduced the AllJet truck-mounted jetter, designed by Gradall Industries to provide municipalities and contractors with a highly efficient, easy-to-operate sewer cleaning machine.

With standard Vacall “Green That Works” advantages, the AllJet uses a fuel-saving single-engine PTO design, a 1,600-gallon UV-resistant polyethylene water tank and an AllSmartFlow CANbus control system. AllSmartFlow controls, protected inside a weather-resistant cabinet, help optimize operating efficiency with controls for water pump speed and pressure, hose reel adjustment, chassis engine and more. New operators can quickly learn to operate the powerful jetting action, while precision monitoring can make sure the AllJet is delivering optimum on-the-job performance. Over the road and around the work site, a full enclosure protects the AllSmartFlow control panel, eliminating the chance of damage to joysticks and levers that stick out on some other machines.

The hydraulically powered triplex plunger water pump is capable of 87 gpm at 2,000 psi, enough power to effectively jet blockages in sewer lines and routinely maintain flow, with other power options available. The hose reel telescopes out 54 inches from a retracted position and swivels 200 degrees, locking into position for productive working angles while properly directing the 600-foot, 1-inch-diameter jetting hose.

The water tank is constructed with UV-resistant black polypropylene and internally baffled with a filling system that runs through the tank, eliminating external plumbing. Operator-friendly features include four locking aluminum tool storage cabinets, a rearview camera, three roll-up doors, a washdown system and a number of options including LED lighting packages, an extendable rear canopy and a 13,650 Btu/h heater and insulation package to warm the rear compartment, protecting pumps, hoses and plumbing from freezing, which enables year-round use in cold climates.

Designed for simplified operation to speed up emergency response to sewer line blockages, the AllJet chassis engine also operates the powerful jetting function, reducing fuel costs, emissions and maintenance associated with two-engine sewer cleaners. 800-382-8302; www.vacall.com.
