The onld bad thing about buying stuff from the net... waiting! lol

 
Good luck pal!!

Mine arrived just when I was going out to work.. Didn't want to go out lol.. But think I finished early!

I just sat in the back of the combo for about half hour thinking wtf am I going to do lol

 
Ill be finishing early! Ill work till atleast 2 though lol Ive got 4 houses that have to be done with WFP this week, so I need it all set up ass soon as. Ive got the backpack there and a 25 litre drum but its just not good enough.

Do you still have your backpack? I was thinking of selling mine after I was all set up.

Ive been wondering how to set it all up too. Do you have any pictures of your set up?

You could have bought it a fraction of the price just down the road and all in stock, lol.

Hope it all goes well for you, it will be the best move you will have made.

Yes mate still have the backpack, still haven't needed to charge it?!! Rarely use it, but it's good for houses you like doing read but have 1 window you need a pole for, just lift the backpack out with a pole, job done, or for goig threw people's houses.. Don't sell it, you'll lose money and it's handy to have incase the van breaks down of something happens to your system..

I don't think Iv any pics of my set up, to be honest it is threw together, Iv been wanting to do it better but I'm hoping to change vans soon so don't want to do too much.. I bought a pump box, which pump, battery, controller and split charger all built in, so all I did was mount that on a piece of wood I took out of an old wardrobe and bolts that to the side of the van.. Strapped tank to bulk head, bolted a fence post to d rings on floor just fitted perfect in front of the tank, I then put 1 price on either side and bolted then to bulk head, 1 side I needed to modify a bit cos of the tap.. Then all I'd to do is connect hoses and that was me.. I also have my di in the van held onto the side with a bungee cord lol.. Threw together!

 
Have you got a tap for your tank and a tap for your hose reel? I forgot these when I got tank and all lol.. What are you using to connect your hose to pump?

My set up wasn't set up for about a week due to not knowing what to order..

I used o rings for mine but you can use jubilee clips too.. Hozelock connections will connect to the tank and the hose reel.. Also what connections are you using on the end of your pole?
