If they fan to fine then re drill the hole only slightly,practice on a fan you don`t like.The bigger the hole the more water can pass through meaning less of a fine spray.

the high pressure one are for 60 -100psi pumps.
the low pressure ones were bought out because the high pressure ones do not work well with back pack, as it is only 40 psi.hope this is more clearer

Daz, yes I know what you are saying....but, the psi rating is only the pressure switch activation point, ie the pressure at which the switch will trigger and stop the pump, it has nothing to do with the flow rate of the pump, the amount of flow from the pump is measured in litres per min. It does not matter if you have a 60psi of 100psi rated pressure switch on the pump, the flow will still be the rated lit/per min.
Hope this helps.

Do you just use the Tucker nozzles, the pencil jets that come with it?

Or is that not possible?

We got 2 threads running regarding this   ;D

I spoke to Steve at Aquafactors yesterday he reckons you need that whole fitting kit for the nozzles (the kit that holds the brush onto the tucker pole I think)


Can you take a pic of your conversion?

The jets/nozzles really

I have mate, ta. I dont want to have anything to do with them anyway, spoke to him out of curiosity as he had phoned me chasing me to see if I was interested in their quote they gave me of £380 to wire in a battery for me, no materials, just labour £380.00  ;D

Trouble is they dont do fan jets, I dont want pencils, might have to see if omnipole do fans.

Cut a line across the bolt jet with a hacksaw and do your own.

I cant drill 2 parallel holes in a brush-head, what hope is there for me trying a spot of precision engineering  ;D
