Title: Alternative uses for a high pressure washer.
Post by: austastar on November 03, 2013, 08:33:24 AM

Hi,
   I have a jungle of ivy from a large property next door continually encroaching through a wire fence. The hedge trimmer does a good job, but  damages the wire if I'm not really careful, and the wire puts nicks in the trimmer blades.


I was using the washer nearby to clean up the wall, and on a whimsy, tested the washer on the ivy.


It shreds it.


Brilliant.


Best of all it puts all the rubbish back through the fence.


The other use I found was that it is brilliant for adding water while mixing cement in the mixer.


Either a nice mist for just adding water, or blast the sides for a bit of a cleanup at the same time.


It certainly makes cleaning up at the end of the day a much easier and quicker job. It moved remnants of cement from the bowl that I had missed on previous jobs just cleaning with a hose.


cheers
