    Re: Foam cannon for AR383...

    I think so, as the AR cannon comes with a nipple and a bayonet for the plastic lances on the 383 and lesser units. The 390SS' lance has a metal wand and standard 1/4" quick-release.

    Mine cracked and they replaced it free of charge. Just take good care of it and it will be fine.

    Yeah, that's the one, but it does NOT plug straight into the 390SS, which has a standard 1/4" quick-connect collar.

    Re: Foam cannon for AR383...

    I recently bought the AR foam cannon on Amazon which came with the adapter to fit right into my AR383. Questions for experienced users:

    1) What ratio of soap to water do you use in the bottle? I use DG901. First try I used probably 1:2 product:water and the foam was too runny. Should I reverse that ratio and do 2:1 product:water?

    2) What settings do you use on the 2 head adjustments? there is a black plastic dial on top and then the black rotating tip where the foam comes out with the 2 metal fins that open and close.

    Thanks in advance for any feedback!

    Hi. I have the Ryobi 3100 PSI 2.5 GPM and it works great. I've never worried about ratio. HOT water about 1/3 first. Fill hyperwash to 1/2 or a little more. Top it off with HOT water.

    Open tol knob all the way and the nozzle just play with what you like. Wide or narrow. Makes it thick. Love it. Bottom line just add soal to your liking.
