These pieces of equipment will increase productivity and efficiency when laying. It will also make it easier to simply lift a stone that needs to be relevelled as opposed to trying to get a tool into the joint to raise the paver carefully. It will save your back and your employee's backs in the laying process. This will translate to employee retention as they will be less likely to want to leave your business to work elsewhere that may not have the same tools available. This will also work to improve employee recruitment and brining more people into this industry. It will impress clients, showing you are a company that invests into your business to get the best new equipment. There are numerous benefits to this equipment and having it available on any job site.
Great video. I'm going to check out the vacuum now. Will definitely buy one this year.
Thank you for watching! It is definitely a great investment to make.
I rented one of these for my project. Awesome equipment. No more bending over and crushed fingers like you said.
Definitely a good call!
Do you mind my asking where you rented it? Senso?
I really like this system..
👍👍👍
Great informative video! Pave Tool Innovators is a great source for all vacuum lifters and equipment! They are in the USA but do ship globally.
I love my MQuip vacuum lifters 👍
Whats that laying base made from? It seems well compacted to walk on before you even lay the slabs
High density polypropylene. It’s great stuff
That's a great idea. Do you know which tool/equipment rental shop (GTA area) has this type of vacuum paver lifter? Thanks
I don't, but if you contact Mquip (they are in Burlington) they rent and they may be able to recommend someone closer.
@@iamahardscaper Thanks. I've tried all the tool rental shop in York region with no luck for any similar tool. Btw, have you tried the similar product from pave tool?
No, i haven’t yet. Seen them, but I’m very happy with Mquip
Great video. Hopefully you get this message quick. I was looking at purchasing one of these. How does the solo handle work with BLU 60 pavers? Also what size pad do use to lay the 18x24s? They just came out with the blizzard, so now you don't need a back pack. And last do you use the Grip? It's a one hand grip. Thanks
The one man handle words great with blu. The pad fits the 6x13 perfectly. The large slabs I use the two man handle in the thumbnail. I dont know the size of the pad off the top of my head but if you talk to the guys at mquip theyre great. I do not use the one hand grip, I assume that is the one for the grabo?
@@iamahardscaperGreat. Thanks for taking the time to get back to me. Have you tried the blizzard yet?
Not yet. Since I already have the backpack I’ll just stick with it for now.
@@iamahardscaper What size pad do you use for the 18×24 inch pavers? And do you ever use the two man lifters to move roka steps?
Im guessing a regular 6hp shop vac may work instead? Of course with proper handle
I don’t think it will
No, a shopvac does not have near enough CFM to lift. It would be nice if it was that simple:)
@@eliasnull It has the volume CFM but not the vacuum pressure PSI.
Where can I rent one or buy
MQUIP sells these
How much does one of these cost?
It is around $1000 for the vacuum and $1000 for the one man or two man unit.
I rented mine for 36 per day.
@@violetnha from where?
I may end up just buying a Grabo Pro from IHL. There's just me so renting a two-man lifter doesn't make sense.
You may not be able to pick up your slabs with the Grabo. It is only rated for non-porous materials like natural stone. Concrete is too porous for it.
@@iamahardscaper Ohh man!! ☹️ Even though they're the new top finished slabs?
it is hit and miss on those top finished slabs
