Help identifying a pressure wash connector type…

[T5GRF]

Sorry for hogging this forum recently but I’ve finally decided to update my car cleaning products….
I bought an Aldi pressure washer in the summer to replace yet another broken Karcher that lasted only a few years. I’m very happy with the Ferrex branded washer from Aldi but it didn’t come with a snow foam lance or any adaptors. I’ve spent an age looking to see what might be compatible with it but can’t seem to find anything.
I’ve attached a pic of the spray nozzle attachment, can. Anyone she’d any light on what might fit or the type of fitting I should be looking for ?

I believe it’s called a Lavor connector but not sure, have a look here if anything is close.

Thanks I checked there yesterday - it looks similar to the lavor fitting but I don’t think it’s the same. Aldi know nothing about it unsurprisingly…

Maybe try here too.

I did a google image search and these are on amazon

So if it's a Parkside connector does it look like the below snow foam lance will fit?

Thanks that’s very helpful identifying the original fitting as “park side” I can’t however see that snow foam lance fitting the connector looks different sadly.

The “gun” part of the Ferrex washer is joined to the lance on this model, so the only fitting that will work with the lance end is the one shown in my picture earlier. The gun can however be detached from the high pressure rubber hose that joins the main body of the washer.

[Belle427]

Could you change the whole gun to a short stubby type that comes with a snow cannon adapter or is the adapter on the end of the hose the same as you have shown?
I bought mine from that link I gave above.
A bit long winded but I prefer the stubby gun myself.

[T5GRF]

The hose adapter is the same.
I have however realised I was being a plank when it came to the lance that joins the gun, I re read the instructions and I needed to hold down the trigger on the gun and it would release the lance which then allows a Lavor type fitting… apologies for my dumbness but problem hopefully now resolved!

[Belle427]

Lol at least you have a solution!

Hi, I have a Ferrex 2.4kw pressure washer and have been trying to identify the correct adapter, so that I can get a foam cannon.
I saw your post and wondered if you would mind clarifying which adapter I should get?
Many thanks.

Hi I purchased a Lavor type snow foam attachment from Amazon but to be honest it doesn’t work well the seal from lance to the snow foam attachment is poor and leaks. I gave up in the end and purchased a handheld snow foam thing that works better than the attachment but not as well as a proper snow foam lance.
