    Maxminon....Thanks for the links i may use them in the future...;)
    i did what it said on the manual with the unwinding of the hose....:rolleyes:

    I had the hose totally un-wound when it started to wear the black coating
    it even wore as it rubbed off the ground...:mad:
    I'm using the hose off my Aldi power washer for the moment which is alot better quality...pity the aldi washer is'nt workin anymore...:rolleyes:
    That aldi washer failed after 1.5 years of use....:eek:
    no 3 year warranty that time.

    I know its a few months since the last post but i'm just wondering if anybody knows if you can get the Lavor 160 repaired i've had mine for about 2 years now and it worked brilliant last weekend however the machine started squirting water from 3 areas the first being where the detergent for foam etc goes the second area being the point where the hose connects onto the wind up wheel left side and the third place was the actual hose that feeds the gun hope this makes some sense.....:confused: I cant get my hands on another model as lidl replied from an email advising that they dont have any for sale in the near future.

    Didn't it come with a 3 yr warranty? I had a simialr problem with mine and just took it back to my local Lidl after about a year... they didn't even look at it, just took it back with no quibble and gave me a cash refunded. Can't argue with that!

    cant remember to be honest i managed to get through to euroquipe very helpfull they are arranging a courier to collect tomorrow and take it back to cork for assesment hopefully it will be covered under warranty as euroquipe confirmed that the lavor 160 comes with a 3 year warranty as mentioned in previous posts. Great to hear you got a refund i'm might try that if euroquipe charge to much for repair.:D

    I'm in a similar situation. The hose is weak and once the outer cover becomes damaged, you're in trouble. I managed to cut out the damaged section after it burstand reconnect with a coupling and good quality jubilee clips but would love to get a replacement..... if only I could track down the bloody receipt :o

    Unless somebody would care to lend me theirs for a day ;)

    I dont think you need the receipt i definately dont have mine all euroquipe require is the serial number located on the right side. i was about to throw mine out it was that badly damaged but euroquipe think they can repair it which is great for me !!. Give them a call.You can also purchase a replacement lance on the net for around 45 STG i think. Reckon you'd get it cheaper from euroquipe. Just Ring them !!! :)

    If these lances are compatible with Karcher, I have a spare one. My old washer died, so any €20 I got would help fund my new one :D

    I'll even throw in other bits I may have.

    Hi guys, Just a quick update euroquipe repaired the leak inside the pressure washer under warranty and fitted a new hose apparently a stronger one that connects straight into the outlet bypassing the take up reel as there is a flaw in the connection from the outlet to the reel It seems to wear down over time. The technician reckons i'll never have to replace the hose again as the new one is much thicker and durable. the total cost of replacing the hose was 45 ex vat. i should have it back within the next couple of days so i'll get a look at this new hose they fitted to see what the comparison is to the old one.

    Same problem here. Leaking hose, euroquipe say this part is not covered by the warranty (typical!) and not a chance of finding a receipt. I don't want to replace it with the same type of hose in case the same thing happens again (Didn't even use it that much...). Have seen a steel braided replacement on www.jet-wash-direct.co.uk. It costs £50 with £16 postage. 75 euro! Am wondering whether to buy it or not... Whole thing only cost 120 euro to begin with...! Help!

    Used my Lidl pressure washer to day for the first time and noticed after washing my two cars that the black coating around lance hose had worn off
    in on spot where the hose was rubbing off the wind up reel.....:mad:
    lucky there was no leak.
    The pressure vibration of the pump caused it to wear..:rolleyes: as
    far as i can see the lance hose seems pretty weak...so watch your hoses.....;)

    Hi Row,
    I badly need your help re wiring of above (Lavor Superwasher 160) behind switch. A genius go at it & now I have no idea at all where the four wires go.

    Can you tell me what colour wires(two) are on ON side,
    What colour wire on OFF side.
    Switch pulls out easy enough,but if you have to go in back(8 screws) appreciate what wires go to capacitor.

    Many thanks if you can do this ,or anybody out there who is sound.

    Naoscach - just wondering what problem you were having

    My washer has started to trip the electrical fuse in my shed - was something similar happening yours ?

    Hi , Apologies for not replying earlier.
    Started out with burst O ring, which I replaced, but in order to open up access the wiring in the main switch was pulled out without a proper record kept.

    Very likely you have a cut in the lead rather than a loose wire/ connection, or the fuse rating is too low.

    Hi all, I have just broken the plastic interlocking sleeve on my lavor superwash 160. It is the plastic sleeve that holds the lance locked at the end of the actual gun. Been looking for a replacement part and having no luck at all. Been directed to uk sites but their crap. Anyone know where I might just get lucky with thius one. Thanks.

    Hi,
    Not sure if you are talking about the nozzle end- which can be held together with zip ties(& might allow you to vary spray) or the brass inter-connecter in the middle, where you can use a vice grip to twist nozzle section on, or the quick release to the hose. You should have a second nozzle section.
    Tool rental shops normally do not have quick release parts for high PSI.
