FAQs
How do I change between spray patterns?
Simply twist the front rotating collar of the nozzle. Turn it until the desired spray pattern (Wide Cone, Powerful Jet, or Fine Rose) clicks into place.
What hose sizes is this nozzle compatible with?
This nozzle is designed for use with 12.5mm and 15mm diameter garden hoses.
Does this nozzle work with any brand of hose connector?
The nozzle uses the Hozelock quick connect system. It is designed to work seamlessly with Hozelock hoses and accessories. While it might fit other connectors, full compatibility is guaranteed with the Hozelock system.
What is the benefit of the water stop connector?
The water stop connector automatically stops the water flow the moment you disconnect the spray nozzle from the hose, preventing water wastage and keeping you and your surroundings dry.
How do I clean the spray nozzle?
You can clean the nozzle by rinsing it under running water. If the spray holes are blocked, use a soft brush or a pin to gently clear any debris. Avoid using abrasive materials that could scratch the plastic.
Is this nozzle suitable for high-pressure washing?
The 'Powerful Jet' setting is strong for general garden use and cleaning, but it is not designed for high-pressure washing applications like those requiring a dedicated pressure washer.
What is the material of the nozzle?
The nozzle is constructed from high-quality, strong, shatterproof, and frost-resistant ABS plastic.
Troubleshooting
No water flow when trigger is pressed.
Check that the nozzle is securely connected to the hose and the tap is turned on. Ensure the selected spray pattern is not set to 'off' if such a setting exists beyond the three patterns.
Water leaks from the connection point.
Verify the female connector is properly seated on the hose end. Ensure the hose clamp (if applicable) is tight or the quick-connect fitting is fully engaged. Inspect the connector for any damage.
Spray pattern is weak or inconsistent.
Confirm sufficient water pressure from the tap. Check the nozzle head for any blockages in the spray holes; clean gently with a soft brush or pin if necessary. Ensure the hose is not kinked.
Water continues to drip after releasing the trigger.
The water stop connector should automatically cut off flow. If dripping persists, there might be an internal seal issue. Ensure the nozzle is fully disconnected from the hose to stop water flow and consider replacement if the issue is constant.
