Seems pumps are a big problem with the rollermatic. The seals for the pumps as well as the pumps themselves are NLA. I have a rollermatic but the pump seal leaks in it. Robert told me that in some cases a stand alone electric pump can be used, but I'll let him tell you about that. |

Whaaa?
So here's a stupid question: why is it called a Rollermatic? Sounds like the name would be more appropriate for a wringer machine. |

Because it doesn't have a conventional transmission. It operates with a series of exposed rollers. |
