ls1cameric 14 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 I ordered my cold water PW from Bob at PT. I got the 20hp honda, general pump, 5.5gpm @3500psi. It came in a couple days ago and the box was drenched in oil because whoever tested it forgot to put the pump oil cap back on very good. It was only like halfway on there but no worries, I went and got some more oil and filled her back up. However, when I opened the box, and pulled everything out. The wand, then the gas tank, then the pressure washer, I noticed this very tiny little ball valve looking thing down at the bottom on the box. It's like a 1/4 long and look like a minature trailer hitch ball. What is this thing? I cant see where it would go on anyting and none of my manuals say anything about it. I'm wondering if it fell in by mistake when they packaged everything. I fired up the pressure washer and it works great so i'm scratching my head trying to figure out what this is. I'll call bob after a while to see if he knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ls1cameric 14 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 I should have taken some pics but didnt even think about it. I called Bob and he's baffled too. I'll take some pics tonight and post them but he thinks it's something that just fell in the box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIN 21 Report post Posted November 14, 2008 Hey Bob.... If I order something from you can you "accidently" drop something in the box. I need a good surface cleaner... hint hint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FCPWLLC 233 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 The description actually sounds like a grease fitting. But I don't remember anything like that on a cold skid. Does your macine have wheels? Do they have grease fittings? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
