I'd have to look at mine in the morning. Doesn't appear to look as though it has a function.

Yikes. I'm looking at this and I'm like, that looks familiar. Then I'm looking at the table & lamp, in the pic, and I'm realizing it's my nightstand.

I guess I posted those pics? Anyway, the middle piece with the bolt/wrench head will be needed (or some variation of it) to connect the adapter to the cannon if your using a Karcher K adapter.

So your screwed.


j/k.

You get it at Lowes or Home Depot for like $2 in the plumbing isle. I don't recall the exact size, but it's pipe thread and readily available (3/8" NPT ???). Just bring the adapter with you - it's the same size as the cannon. You will need a small piece of male/male threaded pipe to connect the adapter to the cannon - as each is female. The wrench head just makes it easier to snug down.

Ah, I get what swanicyouth is saying. My foam cannon for my Karcher K series has a different fitting system so I don't see any threads. I think my MTM Hydro has male threads? That or my Karcher adapter came with male threads. I took it apart to wrap it with Teflon tape but I forget which end had the male threads, the cannon or Karcher adapter.
