A good thing to note is that there is a little green light on the black electronic connection. It must show green, or the device won't work as intended. There are little white buttons that you can click, which will turn the light green if it's not already on while connected to the outlet. Hope this helps.
Thank you for the clear, well-paced video. I just got your Ultimate version, and was staring at all the parts spread out on my workbench. You made it easy.
Why aren't the Mosmatic nozzles labeled? I can't tell just looking at them which one is 45 degrees vs. 25 degrees. Also no labeling of what the oring baggies are for or why there is an extra foam cannon orifice included.
I’ve been looking at tips for spray guns for washing my cars and beyond the 40* tip there are other numbers (2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 5.0) what do these mean and how do I know what I need? (Excuse the terminology as I don’t know this. Thanks
it would be nice for him to mention if the correct orfice(1.5mm) is already installed in the foam cannon and go thru the operation of the foam cannon as well. thanks
The small plastic bags that come with the package(ultimate in this case); are these additional O rings and a wider angle nozzle? Or do the O rings need to go to the pressure washer inlet? Thanks
The O-Rings you're referring to are replacements for the couplers on your hose or for your sprayer. The small screw is the replacement orifice for you foam cannon.
@@ObsessedGarageShorts mine wasn’t attached. I got it from a local detail shop. Just want to confirm I don’t need to use Teflon tape on the connectors to the pressure washer? Per this video. I’ve got different advice and I’m new to using a pressure washer.
@@travistanaka4215 Correct, you dont need to use teflon on the connection to the pressure washer. the only connection that should need teflon are the couplers to the hose. provided there not M22
@@MikeKaufman-d7n apparently the early units had pressure switch issues that has been resolved I'm being told. You also need a high quality hose to prevent surging. I'm going to be trying my new 2.0 tomorrow.
Just received the Advanced package for the 2.0 and my foam cannon didn't come with the quick disconnect fitting assembled. Whats the torque spec for the foam bottle?
There isn't a specific torq spec for the plug, you'll just want to tighten it down snugly. We have a video going over foam cannon basics I would recommend checking it out for more info!
Any other reason for repressurizing besides a leak in the line? I'm pretty sure I've fixed them all, but still having this issue with my Ryobi. Using the 50 foot KobraJet hose and Advanced wand package.
I’ve had two active ve52 units and both couldn’t handle a longer hose. No leaks, they would just continue to surge. When I use my longer hose I use my sunjoe. Kind of a bummer huh
@@connersmith2445 good to know. I don't have any other options unfortunately other than using the Ryobi stock hose or just buying a new pressure washer, which is likely what I'll end up doing.
I currently ordered this active 2.0 from OG. I have the uberflex hose and it doesn't seem to like it. The pump would not stop running after you release trigger. I sent OG multiple request for help / return... still no reply back from OG.

ENGINEERING FLAW ALERT...the end of the cord where the plug box is will be non functional on most outdoor outlets because its much too bulky to fit in most outdoor outlets...it should be redesigned to have the box about 6 inches down cable from the actual plug so the plug will be small enough to fit under the cover etc...look at the greenworks pro 3000 psi machine...thats the design this needs
These machines are a joke. The plug won't fit on most outdoor connections, the hose you use can't be longer than 20 foot without it surging. Can't use smaller orifice than supplied or you risk tripping a breaker. If I'm going to spend this much i rather cough up an extra $250 and get the AR blue.

@@TheFrontMan5150 Sure does, I have the newest MTM model and it comes with a 2nd orfice
Can you move any farther back?
How is the vibration? Specifically if I purchase the custom install set from OG… does it screw in or standalone?
Is OG going to offer a tip package 3.5-7.0?
Yes, we are working on that right now. it should be live very soon.

How long is the power cable?
Can this be gravity fed? I tried gravity feeding the VE52 and it didn’t work. Thanks
Unfortunately no. These things are useless unless you want to use everything OEM or else anything else voids the warranty.
@@pullingthestrings5233 Yes, if you search TH-cam many mobile detailers have the Active 2.0 in gravity feed rigs
Do I need to use Teflon tape when attaching the couplers to the pressure washer hose?
Yes, you do, but they should already come attached if you buy a solution.

Sad it's not for sale in Europe 😪 But Kranzle is easy to purchase
Why is the inlet hose so short?
What nozzle do you recommend for washing cars
the 40° nozzle

Figure out the issue?

Sometimes it can be an issue with the internal pressure on the pressure washer itself. It's a case-by-case thing but the most typical cause is a leak.

Did you get this resolved?
Hell yes….. when the heck are we expected delivery from our pre order?
I believe they mentioned August for the delivery to OG.
We should be getting the units in sometime in August.
will the ultimate packages ship first?
Mine just leaks the whole time…
Did you figure out the issue?
@@MikeKaufman-d7nnope I gave up. Bought a hose off Amazon.
This compressor is not 220v compatible, so not suitable for anyone outside of North America

This thing has so many flaws. The fact that you can't use a 50 foot hose without it surging is a joke.
Get a short extension.

What junk. Guaranteed to leak at first. Turn off and check for wear and tear on a new o ring. Complete garbage company and salesman.
