Title: Honda gx 340 question
Post by: Warwick Sayce on November 23, 2015, 09:38:51 pm

Any idea what the maximum length of hose I can run from this machine to the lance.

I have tried to google but can find nothing.

Thanks in advance

As much as you need, I have 60m on the reel which is enough for most jobs.

I did a job last week with approx, 60-70 mtrs and was OK, just bought a turbo nozzle from Ben and worked fine. Maybe not as I was expecting, maybe we expect more, but by the time I had got the hang of using it was quite happy.

You loose 0.1 bar per meter to friction - a work unloader / pump can exacerbate the pressure drop but in theory 100m looses 10 Bar. Once you get over a certain distance soft start unloader a can struggle.
