Vacuum excavators from VacStar are designed to reclaim directional drilling fluids, pothole utilities, clean out manholes, catch basins, wash pits, valve and meter boxes, and wash equipment and property. A rotary-vane pump provides a strong vacuum for greater depths, distance and speed. It allows the operator to vacuum and pothole great distances, easily permitting backyard and previously inaccessible work areas. The pressure mode allows clogs to be removed from the vacuum hose and the contents to be maintained under the controlled dump mode. 319/656-3434; www.vacstar.com.
