Title: Super short pressure washer handle/trigger
Post by: jc_tattooer_ on 06 April 2023, 21:28

I’ve a karcher washer, I’ve shortened the Lance by pulling a section out, but, I really want it just to be the trigger/handle… where do I get myself one of those, also, the washer itself has a bit of a leak on the go, do we know anywhere in the north west that can service it?

Thanks

Do you mean something like this? https://cleanyourride.co.uk/collections/pressure-washer-accessories/products/annovi-reverberi-mv925-quick-release-short-lance-with-swivel?variant=40086067314885

I haven’t got one but I have bought stuff from clean your ride before and the service has been excellent. I know you’ve said north west and I think he’s based in Bury if you wanted to go and see him and other short trigger options.

...and it's brilliant. I also bought a 10m replacement hose. A million times better than the standard one.

Yeah that’s the stuff I’m after….

I’ll check my washer model and drop them a message see what will fit….

Anyone know of a pressure washer service place?

Have you thought about repairing it yourself? Chances are it will be a common issue, well worth a google. I repaired my Nilfisk, replaced a valve easily enough at minimal cost.

You know I haven’t as it goes…. It appear more water comes out of it when it’s waiting to deliver that actually comes out of the Lance itself

Having checked it out, my washer has been discontinued, so I imagine parts will be tough to get hold of….

Any recommendations for a new washer?

Ended up getting a new washer and the clean your ride short handle.

GTi been with dealer knocking on for 3 weeks now, went to collect it, earlier this week, after they were supposed to be painting their shocking job of the bonnet. Sorting all stone chips on bonnet wings and a pillars.

Bonnet snd a pillars were mint. Not even mustered a buff or polish to the wings…. So had my sales guy walk round the whole car and I pointed out every single issue with it. Said he will sort them all for all the messing around and then not delivering what they’ve stated they will.

We shall see
