Take it out of the box, fill with water, attach pole, turn on, and earn some cash  ;D

get yourself a little folding trolley,    use if your filling it all up.   bungee from pound shop, tie round to secure on trolley.
get a tap from wintecs,  around £6. fix onto backpack hose


then fill up with water and turn on ;D

i bought one last year.

uses:

awkward access jobs(around 10 jobs a month)where its easier to use the backpack and occasionally go through houses.

applying virosol to upper f/s/g.

despite only using it for a few jobs here and there i wouldnt be without one now.

also ive used it for work with four 25L barrels in my car while my vans been off the road so it doubles up as an emergency back up system.

Buy a new fuse holder, the one that doesn't have the spring type, as they come loose !

It's a very useful piece of kit.  I used one from a hire van for a few weeks a while back when my van was off the road.  I particularly like the ability to set the flow accurately then choose whether to flick the switch for high or low setting.

Use mine daily easier than dragging hose out . You will need connector to go on end of hose

yes deffo get a small trolley to wheel it around on, ditch the backpack straps.  also when charging for the 1st time overcharge for about 3hrs
