Well all done. Diy van set up. Here are my problems
everything is spinning. swivel neck does my head in. Ill get a fixed neck until I get used to pole.
Goose neck spins (aqua dapter)  I feel like putting ptfe tape on all joints and tightening them up.
Aqua dapter is a bit naff. Some times water shoots out,other times its slower. I think the spinning X doesn't line up correctly every time.

Some times water doesn't come out of hose when digi controller is on. When aqua dapter is off, sometimes it says dead end. Altered it, lets see. Now I know why you use analogue :)

I left everything connected, turned pump off and hung pole inside van. SQUIRT! water all over my seat. Do you leave pressure in system between jobs? I disconnected from hose reel and water emptied in van lmfao. Van floor and me are wet.

Do you let the brush do the work, or put pressure on the pole?
Glass was easy to clean. Frames dragged loads of poop onto glass. Had to rinse a lot, which was hard and keeping same distance from glass. Spray jets came to mind, yet pencil jet is every ones choice

Lol. Put the brush at the other end of the van.
Let the brush do the work.
frames will be crappy first clean. Persevere.
Pencils are the best. fans spray everywhere.

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Ditch the aquadapter waste of money and makes the pole to heavy , And dont expect to get through your work as quick as trad just yet , Perfection takes time and you will get far less complaints if you take your time . Mike

try tightening the screw on the swivel neck a little bit. so that you have to apply a bit of pressure on pole to turn the brushead. otherwise they just flap about everywhere.
