Hi Folks can anyone tell me what tap adaptor I would need for this as I just bought a Karcher hose and the tap adaptors they've included don't fit on the tap.
One of these. I'll find a linky. Cheaper as a set. http://www.screwfix.com/p/brass-hose-fitting-set-4-pieces-4-pcs/13866 Plastic version. http://www.screwfix.com/p/hose-connector-set-5-pcs/70310
One thing I will add, the brass fitting can be difficult to connect to some type of hose. I have some ancient Screwfix yellow hose,it's been abused over the years,& still comes back fighting, it's heavy duty, so slightly larger diameter & the brass hose fittings will not fit, yet plastic ones will.
Read you Karcher instructions carefully - I think they sometimes recommend against brass fittings as they can cause damage to their plastic ones - probably due to sharp edges and no 'give/flexibility'.
I changed the fittings on my karcher to brass, the plastic ones kept stripping the thread due to water pressure at the lance.
Hi i bought the plastic version and still it didnt fit , even the man in the counter recommended this one. It seems too big even though its the right size. Any idea what the problem could be?
Too big,even though its the right, as in how, for hose or connection to Karcher? Confused now. Post a photo of fittings you had with Karcher for connection to water, might be clearer then as what's wrong. What Karcher model, sure all fittings same.
The Karcher is fine, just trying to fit the tap connector on but it doesn't fit on as its too big. Sorry I'm not very good with DIY
Simple. Unscrew the brass adaptor on the tap, then screw green adaptor onto tap,using grey reducer if required.Grey adaptor is a 3/4" to 1/2" reducer, you may or maynot need it, depends on tap size.
Is that so, I can do any DIY, decorating, anything around the home that my useless ex couldn't do and guess what I'm female
