Why Use A Snow Foam Lance Adapter?

This Better Detailing metal adapter replaces the existing fitting on a compatible aftermarket snow foam lance, allowing the completed lance assembly to connect to selected Nilfisk, Gerni, KEW, Alto, Stihl and Husqvarna pressure washers.
Using the correct adapter allows you to retain your aftermarket snow foam lance while changing the machine-side connection to suit your compatible pressure washer.

Important: Pressure washer connections can vary between models, production years and product ranges. Please compare the shape, locating points and dimensions of your existing pressure washer connection with the product images before ordering.

How To Install
- Disconnect the pressure washer from its electrical and water supplies before changing accessories.
- Check whether your aftermarket snow foam lance already has a pressure washer or quick-release adapter installed.
- Unscrew and remove the existing machine fitting from the top of the snow foam lance assembly.
- Check that the thread and sealing components are clean and undamaged.
- Apply suitable PTFE plumber's tape to the threaded section where required.
- Screw the Better Detailing adapter into the snow foam lance connection.
- Tighten the fitting securely without overtightening or damaging the thread.
- Connect the completed snow foam lance assembly to your compatible pressure washer.
- Run the pressure washer at low pressure initially and inspect the connection for leaks.
HQ Top Tip: Many aftermarket snow foam lances arrive with a 1/4" quick-release fitting or another machine adapter already installed. This existing fitting normally needs to be unscrewed before the Better Detailing adapter can be fitted. Use PTFE plumber's tape on the threaded connection where required to help create a secure, leak-resistant seal.
