Great video! Hope my washer last as long! Can I use an electric extension to get to farther areas or should I purchase a longer hose?

Put a soap injector at the head of the pump and put the soap nozzle to work with some concentrated mildew remover

This is a great and helpful video man. I am trying to get a little side hustle going cleaning driveways and patios etc. I did my neighbors driveway and while it worked pretty well, the limitation of the 1750 PSI was definitely something that added a lot of time. I never thought of doing these upgrades instead of springing for a new unit altogether which yeah I should do but this can maybe be the difference of me not having to. Also I HATE the hose it comes with. It never really extends fully because it’s kinda tough. And the handle is kinda weird as the locking mechanism for the trigger works whenever it feels like. I’d love something more solid, didn’t even think of it as an option until now. Thanks again! I’m kinda excited now to get back out there and use it!

@KyuketsukiRei 3 ай бұрын

Was hoping to see the concrete extension demo... damn. I want to know if I should buy one.

@FoulNews 3 ай бұрын

The one I have works pretty good, but you just have to go very slow and do 2 - 3 passes in the same spot for it to clean effectively. I filmed some of it already, but haven't had the time yet to finish it. Hoping to have it done in 2 weeks.

Happen to know of a way to replace the aluminum hose connector? I didn't drain mine very well before putting it away for a the winter and appears it "rusted" out. I have micro holes all in between the threads. I was tempted to purchase the adapter you mention however the holes go further back than the hose can connect and I worry the adapter won't either.

@mjbeckernc 4 ай бұрын

Great video, quick question: I did exactly as you did with the hose and the quick connects. I can't for the live of me get the quick connects to release. They won't pull back to release AT ALL... Any suggestions or is there something I'm missing?

@FoulNews 4 ай бұрын

Usually when the quick releases are stuck it's due to residual pressure. With the pressure washer off, squeeze the handle and try pulling the quick release connection off.

@Chubbywubbyjr 5 ай бұрын

Do you by chance know a better soap dispenser that can work with the upgrades? Because the one the washer comes with sucks.

@FoulNews 5 ай бұрын

Yes, I use one similar to the link below. It has an adapter for the stock handle as well. The one I use is no longer available, but is basically a re-brand of this one: amzn.to/4bHY1ta

Does anyone know a surface cleaner that will work with this equipment?

@FoulNews 3 ай бұрын

I recently just did my driveway with a Westinghouse 15" surface cleaner. It works pretty well, but you'll have to go slow and make 2 or 3 passes with it. The biggest issue is being limited by the pressure that this pressure washer can produce, so no matter what surface cleaner you use, you'll just have to take it pretty slow. I've got a follow-up video I filmed coming out in about 2 weeks using the surface cleaner. This is the one I've got now: amzn.to/3JqLJIJ

@erictirado9190 4 ай бұрын

I’m a little confused why you would need an adapter for the machine. Doesn’t the pressure hose connect right to it? I bought everything you have except the adapter because I wasn’t sure if I needed it.

@FoulNews 3 ай бұрын

Most pressure washer hoses and attachments are M22 x 14 and the machine has an M22 x 15 output and wouldn't connect to the hose without the adapter.

@honaker1127 2 ай бұрын

Yes, as long as it can use a quick connect fitting or uses the same thread size as the hose.
