Other than getting the hose connector turned around (watch out for that one), the machine is simple to put together and use ruclips.net/user/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP . And very nice, too. I'm surprised at the power-it's more than we'll ever need, and we've not even used the most powerful setting yet.I've cleaned off a dirty concrete porch to get it ready for sealing, started to clean siding, and I know this pressure washer will be terrific for cleaning tools this fall.The only issue we had is we had turned around the hose connector, and it leaked. Once it was on correctly, though, we had no problems with the connection. Just remember that the end with the green knob goes towards the hose. It's obvious now what we did wrong, but not necessarily obvious at the time.
Thanks for that. A review that had some genuine dirt. The Karcher videos all look like they special prepared the dirt and it comes off perfectly. Your patio looks like my deck in terms of grime and we both know what a job it is to clean.
Great review subbed and liked. Convinced me to purchase one to go with my K5 to clean the driveway. Last time I cleaned the driveway with the lance and everything got covered with dirt. I even wore wellies and still got soaked through. Even the neighbours garage got covered with dirt and I had to clean that. Cool video. Keep it up 😊
I bought a k350 to go with my K7 last year and it worked fine to clean patio, used it 3 times then put it away for the winter. Trying to use it again today - the heads won't spin. When I removed the head arm unit it seems to be very sticky, can't spin the arms freely, takes a fair bit of finger pressure. Seems to be no way to get into the central axle to grease it or clean it out. A very expensive way to clean the patio 3 times!
Unlikely that a non-UK manufacturer will use lb/min - the information is in litres/min! Needs a section of the patio to be cleaned with the lance as a comparison. Not convinced the cleaner is worth the money.
All a patio cleaner does is 'kind of' contain the dirt and you don't get 'as wet' as with a standard lance, a spinning type turbo lance will get it much cleaner for not much more effort. After using a patio cleaner you will then most likely switch to lance to then spray away the dirt as it will all still be sat where you cleaned, so for my money you just use a good turbo lance, some wellies and waterproof trousers!😆
Not a good as using the spinner jet. I'd sooner get wet and have the job done properly. Not impressed with the bit of dirt it removed. My spinner jet gets my patio looking like new.
You can't use the detergent system from the power washer itself with these attachments. You have to buy attachment that has its own detergent application system, in this case T-Racer T-550. From the K7 Premium Full Control Plus operating instructions: "Detergent can only be added when the device is operated in low pressure mode." "When working with T-Racers and other accessories, the pressure indicator is not indicative. So that correct function is guaranteed, always set the pressure on the high-pressure gun to the highest level. Make any possible adjustments directly on the accessories."
A bit more pre-video product research would have made the video so much better. It’s no use to people when you say things like ‘I think’ You do however seem nice a nice guy 👌🏼
the only problem with these patio cleaner heads is they just dont do a great job ,do a small patch using a turbo nozzle and you,ll see the difference . the patio heads only seem to work on very high pressure machines
It would be appreciated if Karcher could indicate on the box that The surface cleaner is merely an attachment and NOT the complete machine. Very misleading to the novice.

thank you for you efforts
Nice one, cheers. just persuaded me to get one of these for our patio. Fed up with the lance splashing water everywhere.
Thanks good review just bought one based on it ! cheers
Just got one for our pebblecrete drive. Works a treat...great product. Thanks for the review!
thanks great review
Great video, thanks
Hi which karcher do u have the k4 full control ?
What karcher were you using? Can you use the t350 on cobbles?
Does this attachment make cleaning the pavers quicker than just using the high pressure stick attachment that comes in the box?
Helped me a lot to make a decision. Thanks
Thank you ! I'm definitely persuaded . Sick to death of looking like Swamp-Thing by the end of a normal cleaning session with just the lance .
I've got this patio attachment but I think the dirt blaster does a better job

A most helpful decision assisting video. Thank you for sharing!
No Axe
Glad it was helpful!
Move slowly, let the machine do the work; you are not scrubbing.
Down to earth video🙏
Nice one ☝️
l(L) is for liter(per minute) - at 1:49min.
How do you remove the excess dirty water? With a broom?
Yes a brush and hose..
put neat thick bleach onto your tiles. leave for an hour, then use the patio washer.
Hi How long have you had this item for let me know thanks From Mr Jackson
Since 2017
How do you get rid of the dirty water?
With a hose what else do you expect
The back splash guard is wort it alone... I get crap all over my legs and ruin shoes usually
A pair of water boots does the trick
There are countrys were you cant buy bleach or so. The substitutes do not work. I would wish that i could use both.

use some cleaning solution
Still a lot of dirt to be removed
It’s not the karcher pressure washing machine, just the surface cleaner attachment.
All a patio cleaner does is 'kind of' contain the dirt and you don't get 'as wet' as with a standard lance, a spinning type turbo lance will get it much cleaner for not much more effort.

I have with me Karcher 2 basic. Now I want to buy patio cleaner only. Where do I buy in India and please quote its price
sc bhawnani Sorry I have no idea, I’m in the uk.
Not a good as using the spinner jet. I'd sooner get wet and have the job done properly. Not impressed with the bit of dirt it removed. My spinner jet gets my patio looking like new.
You don't seem to be getting any detergent, same issue as mine.
What?
You can't use the detergent system from the power washer itself with these attachments. You have to buy attachment that has its own detergent application system, in this case T-Racer T-550.

Thanks I’ll stick to just my single nozzle, cleans a lot better than this
It does, but it sprays dirt everywhere
the only problem with these patio cleaner heads is they just dont do a great job ,do a small patch using a turbo nozzle and you,ll see the difference . the patio heads only seem to work on very high pressure machines
Ne vaut rien sur dalles gravionnées
looks bad
