Title: powerwasher gutter cleaner attachment
Post by: matt on May 10, 2007, 06:57:29 pm
Ive got a few gutter cleans lined up, i normally just do them with my pole and a old brush head and hose conected to outside tap

but

i thought i would look into a attachment for a powerwasher

i dont want silly priced things thanks, just something that'll do the job for a fair price

so whats the options

cheers

The 7.3 metre is the one most go for, the yellow one.

thanks for your reply :)

this 1 i guess

http://www.northerntooluk.com/products.asp?partno=22824E

i notice this

"#  Nozzle holder accepts standard quick-couple spray nozzles (nozzles not included). "

does this mean i need to add a nozzle ?? ?? ? if so, which 1 ?? ? ?? ?

does it also include a hose ?? ?? ?

cant go into pirtek etc as the sizes for the northern tools lance is different to what they keep
so buy the nozzles from northern tools
i

Check with your local branch Matt as ours had them in stock at the time.  ;)

Which one do you need though Matt ? As I found the pk 5 has different sprays which are good depending if your doing on or outside the gutter or for cleaning cladding or slabs etc.. You will make it back on the first job anyway!

Stop being a tight arse  ;) and just get them. Time and effort trawling around to locate it will cost more than that. ;D
