Premiere Mini 175

[ryry_87]

To be honest the newest one i've got is from 2002 I think. It's completely identical to the old ones. Same motor etc It's only when they got the single stage motor in about 2004 that they changed much

That looks more like the 1970s Hitachi

You mean these?

 

[ryry_87]

or this?

The second one Hitachi.
Don't personally like it, that much!

Still, a nice HD Video of it will be a pleasure to watch!

 

[ryry_87]

lol ok, if i'm bored enough at some point i'll do one for you

 

[Scaniabebe]

Thanks, mate!

 

[ryry_87]

Hi mate I wish you a speedy recovery. i've been in and out of hospital recently with liver issues not brought about by excessive drinking I might add lol I'll do my best to keep this one going mate with any Premiere 175 related stuff I come across.

Ry-ry you refer to the Premier as having 35mm tools but my own recollection is that they were 30mm. This made them very easy to block up and buying attachments in that size was almost impossible. I recall well selling one customer an entire brand-new 32mm tool kit as I could not locate a new floor tool in that size and she'd found it cheaper to get a kit from me than she had getting a new floor tool from whoever she'd found was selling them.

yep you're completely right, i meant to say 30mm. i remember the caretaker trying to unblock one at school with a broom handle once lol

Premier .......

Hey Guys

The example Ryan posted about was mine but it went to live with him when I attempted to thin the herd a bit. I missed it and it was replaced with this which I found on Ebay for a bargain price. It is smaller than the metal base 175s but still pretty sturdy- this comes with Hepa filtration as well

Thanks for the kind messages, guys! I'm back, by the way!

Thanks for the infomation, and the barbie pink one, I think Nicole (my wife) would rather use a Hetty or a Henry instead of the Turtle! Just saying!

 

[ryry_87]

glad ur back mate lol i've been in and out of hospital recently so I know its not the most pleasant of experiences

 

[Scaniabebe]

Yeah, hope you become better soon, too! It's not pleasent at all! Still, back to topic. I still get stomach cramps, but no where near as bad as before! I actually treated myself to a McDonalds after no food for almost a week.

 

[ryry_87]

[Scaniabebe]
