Hi, I run a 3600psi machine, and for all my jobs use a turbo nozzle which i find great. Ive also got a northstar surface cleaner (blue1) but i never use it because it just dosent clean properly even keeping it on the same spot on full power and it certainly wont fetch moss or weeds out? you always see these vans or websites with pics of a surface cleaner with a before/after making it look perfect! can any1 explain why?

Wrong nozzles? Nozzle not lined up properly or at the right angle? Cheap inaffective surface cleaner?

3600psi machine? Now that brings back memories of a chinese snide machine I started with, with a cheap pump.

it's not all about psi but litres per minute are important aswell! You will need to have exactly the right size jets in the surface cleaner for it to operate properly balanced with the flow of your machine.

It's about marketing, if you show a picture of pressure washing using a lance then the potential customer sees it and thinks......." that looks like what I use on my machine"

But show a picture of a big FSC and it looks different, I know a few pressure washers whose leaflet show a big 24inch FSC but they don't even own one and just use a turbo lance

Check the jets are lined up properly like this.

We were on a job and I had a guy off here working with us and he didn't like the way his whirl-a-way was running so I had a look at it and his nozzles weren't lined up right. If they don't line up when nipped up, unscrew out again and put more ptfe tape on.

Nothing wrong with using a Falch

Stick to mosmatic or BE whirlaway's, mosmatic's a bit pricey though.

Ok lee thx.
There was a thread on her last week about importing one from America and I ordered one.
I also imported a chapin extreme sprayer from USA and it was on my door in 6 days and £50 cheaper than I could source over here?

[Blast Away]

I had one of them Chapin sprayer. Was red and looked like a fire extinguisher. Was a good sprayer.

[JSMC]

when you say lined up properly. How do you get the correct angles on them? is it just trial and error?

[JSMC]

so what angle should these be offset at?

just had  a look at old northstar fsc i have n nozzles are lechler with 602 stamped on them
