Question 1

What is the diameter of the water connection for the Lavor Vertigo 28 pressure washer?

Accepted Answer

The diameter of the water connection for the Lavor Vertigo 28 pressure washer is 1/2 inch (13 mm). This is the standard diameter for the water inlet fitting on this device.

For a proper and secure connection, you should use a flexible garden hose with a minimum diameter of Ø 13 mm reinforced. The manual recommends a hose length between 5 and 25 meters for optimal operation of the device.

When connecting:

Unscrew the water supply fitting located on the device
Connect the flexible supply hose (not included) to the fitting
Ensure that the seal is properly placed to avoid leaks
Tighten the hose securely

Important: the hose must not be the standard 3/4 inch (20 mm) model, but specifically a 13 mm hose. Also, ensure that the water comes from a clean or filtered source, with a maximum temperature of 40°C and a maximum inlet pressure of 1 MPa.

Question 2

How to reduce the pressure on a Lavor Vertigo 28 pressure washer?

Accepted Answer

The Lavor Vertigo 28 pressure washer has a maximum pressure of 140 bars. To adjust this pressure to your cleaning needs, several effective methods are available:

Use the supplied nozzles: Your device comes with an adjustable nozzle that allows you to change the angle and intensity of the spray. By changing the spray angle, you distribute the water over a larger surface, which reduces the impact and pressure on the cleaned surface. Test different nozzle positions to find the optimal setting based on the sensitivity of the material being cleaned.

Increase the cleaning distance: This is the simplest and most effective method. By gradually moving the lance away from the surface, the pressure naturally decreases. For delicate surfaces like car paint or vehicles, maintain a minimum distance of 30 centimeters from the spray. The further you increase the distance, the less the high-pressure effect diminishes.

Change your technique: Use the rotary brush provided with the device for less aggressive cleaning. Make slow and steady movements rather than intense and localized sprays. This approach distributes the pressure over a larger area, thereby reducing the risk of damage to sensitive materials.

Adjust the flow rate: The Vertigo 28 offers a flow rate of 420 liters per hour. If your model has a flow control, reducing it will proportionally decrease the output pressure. A lower pressure is particularly recommended for cleaning painted surfaces, woodwork, or gardens.

These different methods, alone or combined, will allow you to use your Lavor Vertigo 28 in a versatile manner, from powerful cleaning of terraces to delicate cleaning of cars or facades.
