[Shop-talk] Pressure washer wand?

[Battmain]

You'll usually need the straight part that attaches out of the 
trigger.
That's what attaches to the spray nozzle on the business
end. Once you find
that part, it should work. The hole on the 
business end is smaller than the
end by trigger.  If it doesn't 
work after that, you could try dismantling
the trigger assemby. 
Chances are there is a rubber o-ring that needs
replacing. 
That's what it was for one I fixed with the same symptoms.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Pressure washer wand?

I
acquired a Simoniz pressure washer, probably a fairly cheap one, CL-11 
and
labeled 1300psi.

I don't have the wand, it ends right at the trigger.
However, if I hook it up and run it, it sounds right. And when I pull 
the
trigger, the water goes from drooling out of the end to a slight force.

Any
idea how I can test it more than that before I blow half it's 
brand-new-price
on a wand to try it?

I'm not actually sure if the current Simoniz wands I saw
in Canadian 
Tire are right... looking at the part I have, it has an exterior
thread 
and a hexagonal interior. I can't tell if this is what the $35
wand-and-tip kit matches to.
