I was getting an extension for my pressure washer and I bought all the
connections, but I experienced a huge problem - they did not fit!
This this M22 adapter. It's for quick connect but my existing pressure washer hose has M22
in 15 millimeters and they did not fit. I do have this 15 to 14 millimetres
adapter from my old pressure washer. Just to show you it fits but it doesn't help
because I want quick connects.
So how did I solve the problem? Of course in DIY style
Yes, using a Dremel tool to enlarge the
adapter to make 14mm to fit 15mm
Yes it works! Next is to tighten everything together
We have this part fixed, the rest is very easy. We put this quick connect and screw
it on. Oh yeah you do need some Teflon tape. Here is the DIY tips I want to
share with you. How much Teflon tape do you need? Usually I wrap it
three times. It's good enough.
This is the female part of the quick-connect, same thing you wrap
it with teflon tape on this threads and tighten it
I have this 10 years old pressure washer from Coleman still working perfectly.
I hang it on the wall. The idea is to have long enough pressure washer hose instead
of moving the unit around
Let's connect everything together, this is how it looks. You gotta love this
quick connects is fast
I bought this toy from Home Depot the other day. It's good to wash the area under
your car. I thought it was a good idea honestly but it was not cheap. It's
around $50 Canadian. You attach it to your pressure washer, just like that.
So, did it do a good job? I have no freaking idea. If you have extra money, go
ahead and buy one. If you ask me, it's not a must-have but it's good you have. It is
certainly a cool gadget to draw your neighbors attention. Let's talk about
something more practical. Here is another DIY tips on how you can
organize your pressure washer hose. I have 100 feet in total but I
intentionally not buying one single hose. Ideally, you want to have 4 x 25 feet hose
with quick connects because the hose tangles very easily and they are very
heavy to work with. Breaking them into sections, make your life a lot
easier. Of course if you have a very fancy dedicated hose reel, that's another story.
I hope this gives you some helpful information on pressure washer
adapter M22 and Quick Connect as well as that Ryobi
water broom. If you love DIY and home improvement, I am pretty sure you are
