    At 2.18 when you turn the power washer on, have you still got the variable lance in “soft” mode or on to full power?

    • @Grumpy_Jock
      @Grumpy_Jock Před 2 měsíci

      Soft mode just for putting out the detergent, basically the power of your tap water flow.

    Thanks for this 'how to'; very helpful. Is the pre-soak phase essential? I was just going to load the dispenser and go straight in with the patio cleaner but now wonder if that's right? Thanks!

    • @Grumpy_Jock
      @Grumpy_Jock Před 3 měsíci

      I don’t think it is essential, I’ve not done it since on other areas and not noticed a difference in the result. The machine is what gets the dirt off. Enjoy your cleaning!

    вот это нагадил! Вообщем, я бы делал все совершенно по другому. 1) никакой фрезы - это зло, разрушает и все забрызгивает 2) сначала все отмываем насадкой обычной, похожей на фрезу, но не такой мощной, потом насадкой патио 3) всю грязь собираем, заливаем жидкость и проходим финишно, чтобы не рос мох и компания.

      I agree, there is a more expensive attachment you can buy separately but it’s not included as part of the package, just the cheap version without the brush.

    My very old K2 died yesterday so bought this K3 kit from Toolstation this morning, on offer at just under £150. When I went in I received a £15 discount, something to do with coming in before 9am they said. For £135 a bargain.

    Sounds and looks so weak, that whizzing sound is always a sign of a weak pressure washer. K5 at least or k7.

    • @Grumpy_Jock
      @Grumpy_Jock Před 9 měsíci

      Depends on your budget, k5&k7 are a decent jump up in price. Also didn’t have it on full power for the car. Hasn’t felt underpowered for anything with the high pressure lance fitted, such as cleaning pavings. That being said, the premium models would obviously offer better power (and possibly longevity) if you can afford them.

    So I've only used this pressure washer one time. czcams.com/users/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP The one time I used it, it worked great. I recently had new siding installed but kept the old gutters and small areas surrounding my house that weren't replaced so they looked horrible and dirty because of the new siding. I needed to get it cleaned asap. When I used the pressure washer, man it just melted all the dirt and grime that was on those areas of my house. I used that krud kutter soap and it was over after that. Easy to assemble, feels durable, very simple to use. Also, I purchased a used one to save money and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. I want to get more use out of it so I think I'll be washing the cars and update this comment as time goes on.

      The more expensive models have a brush to hold them off the ground, and to stop spray. This is definitely the cheapest option of what they offer.

    Great demo. I must say I'd love to see the slabs after a hypo wash. All the black mould and lichen would be removed. The patio lance did seem a tad cheap and plastic looking. A skirt underneath would have made it so much easier to use - it would glide across instead of scrape across the patio surface.

    • @Grumpy_Jock
      @Grumpy_Jock Před rokem

      You are right about a brush skirt being of benefit. There are more expensive models you can buy which have this, I think this is the cheapest option they do, hence why it comes as part of the kit.
