    UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust th-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.

    Thanks, you made this easy for me for a snapped rope! I did this on a Honda GX270. I pushed the cord through the outer hole easily, then offset the holes slightly and used a thin metal rod (hex wrench) to push the cord through the inner hole easily via one of the many louvers. This saved taking the handle off the rope.
    I also used a match to heat treat the knot to help it stay tied together (I could tell that the manufacturer had done this on the original knot).

    Honestly, spent an hour trying to puzzle this out until my dull little brain finally said "TH-cam!" This vid was the first one that came up and voila! Got to tell you that I was trying to turn it clockwise instead of anti-clockwise until you showed me. Amazing that I have the exact same Honda pressure washer. Thanks from Seattle Washington USA.

    That's great! You could also use a lighter to firm the end of the rope, and shape it in to a needle so you can fit it easily through both holes.

  • @clairecleveland502
    @clairecleveland502 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    As long as you have the tension stopped with the screwdriver or such, you could take a small piece of wire and make a small hook on the end of it, push from outer hole through inner hole, hook through the nylon cord, then just draw the wire out with your cord hooked. No nothing with trying to aim the cord through 2 holes. 😉

    • @clairecleveland502
      @clairecleveland502 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Or, you could use the same wire hook method, from the inner hole out and not even bother with taking your cord off the handle.
      Easy peasy.
