Nilfisk E140 power washer Hose Modification - Removal - Upgrade - pressure washer - How to

I was fed up with the absolutely rubbish hose on my Nilfisk E140.3, so decided to find a solution to the problem. I needed to replace the awful plastic hose, but did not want to simply extend it and have to keep the plastic hose on the reel as this would cause pressure drop. I discovered that this same machine comes as a Gerni badged machine and as a STIHL, both without a hose reel. These machines use part number 128500622 to attach a hose directly to the pump. I purchased a twenty metre hose from Direct Hoses along with the stubby gun shown. https://www.directhoses.net/collectio... This hose fits directly on the new outlet on the machine, completely doing away with the plastic hose. The beauty of this modification is that it can be reversed completely at any time.
