Bampton boy.asked
It works perfectly until the trigger is released when instead of stopping the pump tries to continue with increasing difficulty until it eventually stops (from overload?). It will not start again immediately but will after a while (reset period?). Is this a known problem? Can you help, please?

Water hose keeps popping off When water is turned on to washer?
1 answer
Garden hose? Sounds like a faulty fitting on hose or pressure washer, both should be easily replaceable. Check that the hose fitting in the pressure washer has an o-ring first.

My Stihl 129 stop as well, i used my compressor and blow it out the water through the inlet. I then sprayed WD 40 in the inlet sprayed it through with the compressor till came out the hose and now good as the day i bought it. Fine for 3 months now.
I tried all the running water 10min ideas etc, So thought WD40 why not.
Thank you

Do the Karcher or Nilfisk accessories fit this water blaster?

Not sure mate. Take your fittings into the store and try them.
No they don't, but you can purchase an Adaptor that will fit Karcher accessories onto a STIHL Lance, I bought one from EBAY from the UK.
can you give the link where can find adaptor that fit karcher accessories thanks

Only the obvious...talk to who you bought it from. May be dead simple but I'm no expert.
Chris, check water connection is not a non return type ! They won't work if they are ! Need a basic flow snap connector with full line pressure to activate the water pump circuit. Even if no power the unit should pump water out using the trigger at line pressure if water supply is enough by volume and pressure to activate the pump valves . If it does this ok then it's the power supply to the switch or further on to the motor tgstvdrives the pump. I had the same problems as you over the years . Use another hose I had had hooked up to another tap with out auto stop connector and away it went !
Cheers ! Max New Plymouth NZ .
May simply be the protective cut off, can happen if you switch power off on the wall suddenly. Give it 20min to reset.
