Used Equipment For Sale/Wanted / Pressure washer for sale.
« Last post by Slacky on Today at 03:54:44 pm »
Just putting this out there to gauge interest.

In about 3 weeks I’ll be looking to offload my Pressure Washer, a Honda GX 390 with 20” FSC. Since Ive had its been serviced regularly and starts just about first pull.

Turbo and rinse lance.

Also there is a Loncin MC18 Softwash unit, with 75 litre header/mixing tank.

Approximately 60 metres of P/W hose, 210 litre wheelie bin with connections for coupling to pressure washer.
A set of ramps for van loading.

45' SLX pole (mostly SLX sections, a couple of extreme sections in there as well) with FSC solar panel cleaning unit.
£2,850, cash.

If desired also there's a well put together pressure washing website, which really would just need a few adjustments such as telephone numbers.

PS has been coming on since Friday. I've been managing to get it to clear by wiggling the wires to the pressure switch. Sounds like a dodgy connection. It was boiling my puss today. Hose had been pulled out about 75m and I had to go back to the van at least 3 times. I did disconnect the two wires going to the switch but PS was still showing on the controller. I also turned the Allen key one way and then the other. I unscrewed the strainer and cleared that. I also reduced the calibration down. Since this it has worked fine but I'm not holding my breath.

Surely if I disconnect the two wires to the switch it will be by-passed?

Hi Bungle. If wiggling the wires connecting to the pump pressure switch stops PS displaying then the wiring is definitely the cause of the issue.

The controller carries out an electrical text to see if the pump motor is connected and in circuit. If there is a wiring issue for example damaged cable connector the controller can not detect the pump motor and will display PS.

Check the spade connectors on the pressure switch replace damaged or corroded spade connectors Or as suggested bypass the pressure switch.

As the issue is wiring related in this case changing calibration wont help

Cheers

I’ve had three Jetmac machines, never had a single issue and never changed the oil.

They’re good machines at a good price. I’ve always been happy with mine.

Why buy cheapest?

It's a pretty expensive game to enter when one has no experience or knowledge about Pressure Washing.
I just jumped in and was lucky buying the Vanguard then I added a hose reel which was £500 without hose. I now have 3 twin turbo lances at £250 each so when I add it all up I'm over £10k due to two Falch nozzles.
Would only do a £100 job when I have a full day PW so I can do them all together. If you start early then you can fit 3 jobs in and make it worth while.

You still haven't answered the question. Why buy cheapest? It's a mug's game buying cheapest because you'll be buying cheap quality, and Adam has now found that out. If he was relying on this machine to be making a living he wouldn't be putting food on the table right now.

Pressure washing easily will give you £400 a day, you're a mug to buy cheap.

I think the tipping point will be if Trump gets in. He is trying to work with big oil companies. Next year will be interesting and China are selling EVs at half the price of their competitors.

Not sure how old trumpster would make much of a difference. As you say it's China that appear to be driving the EV revolution. America would do well to not let their current market dominance slip into the hands of the CCP.

I guess they will have to ban petrol lawnmowers, strimmers and hedgecutters and of course petrol/diesel powered boats?

I've got a gardening business. We use all electric strimmers and hedge trimmers. Stihl ones. They're great.

Not mowers unfortunately, they only really last 1 lawn which isn't much use to us.

I'm sure it'll get there.

I don't much care for boats.
