Is this the pressure washer you purchased?
Shop Greenworks 2000-PSI 1.2-GPM Cold Water Electric Pressure Washer at Lowes.com
If so, you want the silver fitting in the picture (post #3 ) in this thread:
which fitting greenworks?
I thought this is the standard fitting that came with all of the cannons. It came with mine. It is a 1/4" NPT fitting. It will quick-connect into the female end of the wand (where your spray tips connect).

Yea that's the one, so your saying all the cannons on autogeek are sold with the silver piece, is it one if the ones you have to pick during the buying process or do I have to go to lowes and buy it? Thank you btw

I don't know if the ones from AG come with that connector.
Let's think about this a bit more, though. There is a foam cannon made specifically for lower psi electric pressure washers. The ones I see here at AG, while I'm sure very good, are rated for higher PSI. Yes, they will work, but in my experience, the ones specific to the lower psi units work better for their intended use.
Read this thread:
http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...re-washer.html
So with that in mind, lets move forward to the connecting parts. AG gives you the options of adapters in order to connect your foam cannon to the spray gun IN PLACE of the wand. Your pressure washer, based on the pic from Lowes, shows the spray gun with a metal wand attached to it. You would take off the metal wand, attach an adapter, and then attach your foam cannon. If I had to guess, I'd say the Kranzle is the correct adapter. Again, I'm not certain.
See here:
How To Select a Fitting for the Foam Cannon HP
Another option is to leave your metal wand attached to your gun and use the 1/4" NPT adapter that screws into the foam cannon. It has a quick-connect male end which would connect to the female quick-connect coupler at the end of your wand... the same way a spray tip connects. I didn't want to go this route because it made the entire thing cumbersome. A spray gun, a long wand, and then a foam cannon. The whole thing was too long. Still, I don't know if the AG cannons come with the 1/4" NPT connector. I don't see it anywhere. The one I bought DID come with it, but I didn't buy it here. I bought it before I knew about Autogeek. The quick-coupler set referenced below does come with a brass version of the silver 1/4" NPT male connector that you saw in another picture.
Sooooo, I did this: I bought a spray gun from Northern Tool. I also bought a short brass threaded pipe and a quick connect coupler. I attached the pipe to the gun and the coupler to the other end of the pipe. Now I have a short wand/gun that is easy to use and I can simply quick-connect a spray tip or the foam cannon.
See this thread, posts 2 and 4:

Here are a few pics of my setup:

I hope this helps! If you want, you could give Autogeek a call to find out if they offer one of the cannons in the lower PSI rating for your pressure washer. You could also ask if it comes with the 1/4" NPT male connector.
Good luck!

I think it also comes with the M22 fitting which may let you remove the wand and connect the cannon (the way they connect in the Autogeek Fittings link I gave you. It is also the one referenced in one of the other threads. You'll be able to quick-connect it to the coupler at the end of your wand.
