Bluebird Vacuum Pugmill
USED
This listing is for one (1) used Bluebird Model 800 vacuum pugmill. A video included with the listing shows the machine powered on and running, with the vacuum audible and the auger turning. The machine shows accumulated clay residue, dust, surface wear, paint loss, and scuffing. The discharge end appears to be missing the pugging nozzle or die assembly; four mounting holes are visible around the discharge opening. A separate lid with a vacuum gauge is included but is not attached. Mounting hardware, gaskets, seals, the nozzle, die assembly, and other related components may be missing. No further testing was completed.
