Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
Saw Zekoki routers (fixed and plunge) and sanders at a DIY. Superficially, they did not look too good, unlike the vacuum cleaner.
On the labels, the mysterious Zekoki Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Country of origin not mentioned.
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
Took some pics of my Zekoki:
Close up of the intake port
Intake port viewed from the inside
Hose that fits into the intake port is 5cm in diameter
Pipe that fits into the other end of the hose is 3.8cm
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
The head
The filter
Top view of the stainless steel cylinder
At the bottom is a metal chain for grounding, to dissipate the static electricity that builds up during operation
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
Thanks for the pics sir joey81!
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
that filter alone costs around 1K as a replacement.
kaya iniingatan ko eh..hehe
haha grounding pala yung chain na yun...
i never bothered to read the manual though.
why is it that mine's hose' end is 45mm..5mm less than yours???

Sale ngayon sa Ace Hardware ang Shop-Vac
Shop Vac Pro 30 - P7K+ (before) -------> P5,700 (now)
Shop Vac 20 - P3,999 (now)
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
never with the shopvac again...they are so noisy..my woodshop is so little and so enclosed...it is a bonus to have a cheap but quality built zekoki.
two mods that we can do for noisy vacuum cleaners...install a muffler or box it!
i will try to find how i can mod the shopvac20 with a muffler..but it seems this option may not work perfectly.
need help.

Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
in retrospect...i do not know if the thread name is appropriate since the zekoki isnt at all silent..
hey admin..help!

Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
With my ShopVac's decibels and the way you describe your Zekoki, title of the thread is justified.
I'm also sore at ShopVac, got my 20 for P5k but 2 weeks later and til now, it's always been on sale for P4k!
Re: my new super silent vacuum cleaner
got mine sv20 in 2006 for 4.5K...the yellow industrial karcher with auto filter clean is nice as well in terms of noise at 63 dB only...but too expensive at 40K i might get a dedicated TORQ 4" dust collector instead for only 11K..but happy for now with the Z.

Re: My New 63dB Vacuum Cleaner

Re: My New 63dB Vacuum Cleaner
BTW,
One weak point of sikorsky is the plastic standoff of the intake port. Mine was broken out of the box. I don't know if I missed it during inspection or it broke on the drive home.
After purchasing it from Hans you might as well pass by True Value and get this size of nut and bolt:
Sooner or later you'll need it for this:
