Anyone know why when I disconnect my pole hose from the end stop  the water continues to flow out the end stop? Cheers

the spring inside has worn, broken or got snagged - time to chop off and put on a new connector

Cheers mate...that’s well annoying it’s only a month old and happened on both pole reels

Try changing the male connections too at the same time. It may help.

We find exactly the same thing they don’t  last long there have been several threads about this subject , the genuine Parker ones are the best but evan they don’t last long , we buy about 50 at a time and keep  spare ones  in all the vans so we dont get held up with problems

[Smudger]

yes genuine Parker are the best - normally get a few months out of them but to be honest I have now dumped them in favour of the 8mm straight through pneumatic connectors and making the poles "tubeless"

and at around 75p each they are better value than £6.99

What do you use Darran , we are hoseless  with our vans with return to tank feeds as we use hot water what fittings do you use ??

[NWH]

WD40 it keep connecting to the pole and Un connecting it you’ll get quiet a bit longer out of it.

[Smudger]

Just these...



And a blank when we finish for the day

Been using them 3 months without any issues 👍

Hi surely if u undo hose from reel to pole the water would still run out or if u release the hose from pole end it would still pump out thanks andy


 

[Smudger]

We don't change poles very often, if we do it's done at the van so we turn off the controller also you get little blanks, when finished for the day we use a blank to stop water over night just the same as rectus fitting do
