    How to connect foam cannon to hose w/out wand

    I found a nice kit at Lowes that makes a comfortable way to attach the foam cannon to the pressure washer hose without the wand.






    Here's the kit (with the pieces removed):



    You can put the quick connect adapters on the pressure washer end of the wand hose and pressure washer so it is easy to switch between hoses. It is a nice kit for cheap.

    How do you control it? No trigger? I recently upgraded to the Mosmatic gun and it's phenomenal.

    I was gonna ask the same thing. You cant shut it off with out stopping the PW right? Doesnt seem too convenient.

    There are lots of options. There are stubby triggers, brass shut-off valves, small handle guns, etc. The point is that you don't have that 2' long wand, and the parts are cheap. Much less than a $50 gun.

    The guy on the 9th Generation Accord youtube channel connects is directly to the pressure washer gun, no extension of any type, and he has a video on both how to do it, and why he likes it that way.

    Seems like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Different strokes I guess.

    You totally lost me showing this picture with “the pieces removed”



    So what happens next? What pieces? Do those pieces go in the trash? I don’t get it...

    Btw I don’t have a power washer and I’m legit confused as to what I’m looking at.
