Pressure washer too much pressure at the tap end..?

[Buff Mchugelarge]

As the title really,
Bought a small electric Nilfisk pressure washer which very good.
Connected to my kitchen tap with an adapter, all works well until I release the trigger and the pressure blows the seal on the tap, spraying water all over my kitchen.

I got round it, kind of, by drapeing a tea towel over the tap, turning the tap down to the lowest I could get away with and avoid letting go of the trigger!

Would a larger diameter hose help? any other ideas?

It'll be a problem with the adapter. Either work around it as you are or get a new way of attaching to the supply.

^^ What he says. You can also fill the sink or any other recepticle and it will suck the water out via a hose.
