    Default Snow foam gun problems

    Hi All,

    I got a new foam gun attachment for my pressure washer,

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Snow-Foam-Lanc...d4d084ff336da6

    Problem is, when fitted to my trigger, my pressure washer 'pulses' in 1 second bursts!!!. It does not fire out continually like it does on all the you-tube vids I have seen. My pressure washer is OK, cos when I connect my lance back on, it works fine, so it must be the foam attachment, or something else I am doing wrong!!!

    Anyone had the same problem?

    Only time mine has ever done that was when there was a kink in the hose. Can't be the same though if it's working OK when the lance is removed.

    You can send him a pm full member or not.

    It will be the lance restricting flowamd shutting the washer down. Can you adjust the flow at all??? That's my guess anyway

    Good thinking batman!!. Sounds possible!!

    The control panel for my B&Q "easy use" pressure washer!.



    Now where is the 'Pressure Reducing Valve'??.

    I am scared to touch anything, just incase I start WW3 !!

    I will dig out the user manual, & give it a go tomorrow.

    Cheers
