FAQs

What is an S60x6 thread?

The S60x6 is a standard coarse thread used on the outlets of most European-style IBC water tanks, measuring approximately 60mm in diameter.

Does this kit include a water pump?

No, this kit is designed for gravity-fed systems and does not include a pump.

Can I use this with a standard garden tap?

This kit is specifically designed for IBC tank outlets; you would need a separate adapter to connect it to a standard house spigot.

Is the hose UV resistant?

The hose is designed for regular outdoor use, but it is recommended to store it out of direct sunlight when not in use to maximize its lifespan.

Can the spray gun be locked in the 'on' position?

Yes, most multi-pattern spray guns included in these kits feature a trigger lock for continuous watering to reduce hand fatigue.

Troubleshooting

Water leaking at the tank connection

Verify the adapter is seated correctly on the threads and check if the internal rubber washer is present and not pinched.

Weak water pressure from the nozzle

Ensure the IBC tank is elevated to create sufficient gravity head pressure and check the hose for any accidental kinks.

Click-lock connector is difficult to attach

Clear any grit or dirt from the connector housing and ensure the plastic locking tabs are free to move.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy tool-free installation
  • Versatile 8-pattern spray functionality
  • Prevents kinking for steady water flow
  • Secure fit for standard IBC tank outlets

Cons

  • Limited to S60x6 thread compatibility
  • Requires proper winter storage to prevent freeze damage
  • Dependent on gravity-fed water pressure

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: ensure the IBC tank valve is closed, then screw the S60x6 adapter onto the tank's threaded outlet until tight. Connect the click-lock hose fitting to the adapter, and attach the spray gun to the opposite end. Compatibility is strictly limited to tanks with a 2-inch S60x6 coarse thread. To maintain the kit, regularly check the rubber seals within the connectors for debris that may cause leaks. Before the onset of freezing winter temperatures, disconnect the hose, drain all trapped water, and store the components in a shed or garage to prevent the hose material from becoming brittle or cracking.
