Stopping the movement in bowl of LEMAIR machine while travelling


Here is an idea that works for us, and only costs about $ 5 - $8.00

Purchase a  10L plastic bucket with-out a pourer lip, remove the handle and insert into the bowl of the machine,

Removing the Handle of the bucket, will allow the lid of the machine to close fully,

Push the bucket down until it rest in the front and rear lips of outer bowl, make sure the flange where the handle fits is on each side of the machine, as shown in picture.

You will find the bucket is just the right fit to go inside the inner bowl of the machine with-out a great deal of pressure,

 there is no name on the bucket we used, but they are available at many hardware stores.

A bit obvious isn't it? So why haven't I thought of that before? Good tip.

Gday...

This is probably a bit late for most ... unless you, like me, always use (re-use) the original "protection" packaging for everything you buy.

But perhaps, those who have yet to throw out the 'protection' packaging for things it may assist in future protection at no cost.

I have simply continued to use the polystyrene insert provided by Lemair when they packed the machine to transport to supplier/installer. So far it has lasted the six years I have had the van.

Is the bowl moving a problem? Mine came with an accessory shelf which serves that purpose.

Youre a clever bugger Jim - typical Kiwi (and I say that as a Kiwi as well). And youre pretty handy with the camera and photoshop or whatever you use to.

Our machine came with a fairly solid plastic unit that sits into the bowl and top of machine to stop it rocking around........hopefully we wont need to go for your idea eventually, otherwise the BOSS will have me looking for a bloody PINK bucket !!
