    Since Bradley is selling his foam cannons I figured I'd help out any that were considering getting one by posting up a few pictures of the set up I purchased from him form my karcher electric.

    I decided to just make it easier on myself and get all quick connects and a new hose that puts the stock karcher one to shame.. I also got a new trigger and a new lance that I use for normal pressure washing.. It's adjustable from 0-40 degrees.. I love how small it is!

    As you can see it is quality hardware- Bradley is a also a great guy to work with

    And this is a universal fit for ANY Karcher pressure washer?

    Essentially Piet it will fit because you will be doing away with the whole hose/trigger gun assembly that came with the Karcher and replacing it with the set up that Motor City and I have. You would need to go with MotorCitys setup in the pics exactly because like I said you will not be using your Karcher hose/gun assembly anymore.

    Karcher screws you because their hose and trigger gun are not able to be seperated so you need the trigger gun and foam cannon plus the other lance to put on the trigger gun to rinse with when you take the foam cannon off. Only thing I have that I don't see in MotorCity's set up is one more quick connect to go from the hose to the pressure washer. He is just screwing his on but I use a quick connect so I can take the hose off after use and hang it up.

    Also it's not a bad idea to upgrade to a better hose as like Motor said the Karcher hose is really cheap and flimsy compared to this one. Hope I made some sense.

    Gary those quick connects are actually made for liquid and not air. There is a difference and I found out the hard way. We have a ton of quick connects at work and I was trying to fab up another lance when I realized that what we had were pneumatic fittings so the taper is smaller and they will not couple up to a liquid quick connect.

    I am about to cancel an order that's been taking a little over 2 weeks from this other store. How much is all of this going for?

    Does anyone know what kind of PSI or GPM would be the best for a PW to work properly with a foam gun like this.

    I have 2 pressure washers, a gas powered 3000 psi and an electric Karcher 1800 psi and the foam cannon works great with both of them.

    Who is "Bradley" and how much do these cost?

    I was going to buy one from Autobrite in the UK, but changed my mind as returns would be lengthy.

    Shadybreal is his username I guess that may not have been 100% clear from the title.. I'll let him speak on price because I know it varies from set up to set up.

    If you use this on a Karcher, do you need to buy or build another water only gun?

    Yes that is the very small part in my pics adjustable from 0-40 degrees about 1.5 inches long

    All you need is a water lance with a quick connect, therefore you can just disconnect the foamer and bottle from the trigger gun and quick conncect another lance for water only to the trigger gun.
