How to set up your pressure washer to run from a water butt/water tank
Firstly, the tank or water butt you want to use must be fitted with a bottom outlet. It’s not as simple as just throwing a hose over the top into a bucket of water.
Next, you need to connect the machine to the bottom outlet of the tank, (USE THIS TAP CONNECTOR) and then bleed the air out of the pipe. This can be done by running the machine without the high-pressure hose, gun & lance connected. This enables any air lodged in the pipe or pump to be pushed out without the restrictions caused by couplings and nozzles.
Once you have a steady stream of water coming out of the pump, you can then refit the hose, gun and lance and use your pressure washer as normal.
