Aldi Powercraft Washer - Lance

batman2000 · 07-04-2011 11:11am #1

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the correct forum. !

I have the Aldi Powercraft power washer. I has been great never failed, but the lance adapter that has two settings e.g. Vario Lance (power/chemical mix) does not work. I only get the mix for the chemicals. Does anyone know if they have spare parts to get a new lance.??

Thanks

Also, if I just buy a Karcher hose and lance, is the screw connection from the washer the same size/thread?

Not likely to be the same thread no.

Some of the Aldi/Lidl gear is made by Karcher and uses the same thread. Can't guarantee it though.

I have a Karcher extension hose on my Aldi power washer, I think I just had to add an extra ring seal.

I have an Aldi power craft washer that the frost got this year, are you sure its not leaking from the pump.

I wonder are they expensive to repair.

Yeah the pump is fine. What it is:

When you connect the power hose to the pump that it all good.
This is the push & twist in lance. The notch size is different to that of a Karcher, hence why I may need to buy a new Karcher hose and lance.
Ignore the patio cleaner attachment

Can you expand on where the ring seal was and where you got the ring seal..

Thanks

I think had to put on an extra 'O' ring where the hose joined the machine.
'O' rings can usually be bought in motor factors,

I also have a Karcher adjustable power lance. All I did to make it fit was cut down the 'prongs?' to fit the in notches on my Aldi 9686 washer

So I got a Karcher Lance and hose from a K2.35 (I think) and it fitted perfectly, no crossed threads or O-Rings required.

That happened to me this year and last year. I'm just after getting it back from repair yesterday. Just call the number on the back.
