Took a long but nice drive to see Ben in Leicester today, had a play with a few pressure washers and was more confused afterwards lol as they both had they're plus points over each other, think I made the right choice in the end and can't wait to get out there and try it, bens a top guy and knows his stuff on pressure washers!!
I really recommend him to anyone looking for a decent pressure with great help and advice😉
-
I learnt my share too! :)
Cheers - a very enjoyable afternoon :D
-
What one did you go for in the end?
-
It was a really tough one, I went for the Briggs Stratton 750 with higher pressure but lower flow pump that recircs back to tank, I really had my eye on the van guard engine it looked well built and had 3 years warranty but the pump had a higher flow rate and in my van with a 650 tank I need to keep an eye on water.
I'm chuffed with it and both felt strong when testing them, I think it will be fine for cleaning bus stops for two months twice a year, that's why I didn't want to go expensive for something to be sat there.
-
Good choice,
Miles better than some of that tat you were looking at, what's the spec on it?
-
750 Series 5.5HP Briggs and Stratton with Interpump UH2008 (200 Bar @ 8 LPM)
With return to tank hose and a nice little trigger gun he threw in!
All on a rolling trolley

Nice little washer ;)
-
I could do with a little portable machine at times,
Another thing to add to the long list of stuff I could do with.
-
First full day with it and worked an absolute treat, fires up so easy with a quick tug of the string!!
Only issue I'm having is when I open the little tap for the tfr to flow in, at full pressure it doesn't pick up but if I pull the end of the lance out to soft spray it does spray it but not in a nice pattern, just spits it out!!
Should it pick up the tfr while the lance nozzles closed??
-
A backpack would be better for applying TFR ;D
-
Or an x jet ;)
-
Cheers pal I actually dug out my pump sprayer to take with me but it was split lol so might order one of those as I found the washer used it up quite quickly!!
What's an x jet I've not heard of those?
