Yesterday, 08:55 PMAh, so the black thing is the gutter?5 replies | 182 view(s) -
Yesterday, 08:53 PMThe Dewalt is an inflater, not a compressor. It does a good job at what it does, which is inflating stuff. It is a bit slow, but I have one and it...5 replies | 173 view(s)

Yesterday, 08:10 PMNot sure about your solitude, but it should be between the battery and the pump. I believe it is a automatically resetable circuit breaker.13 replies | 229 view(s)

Yesterday, 08:07 PMEasy. I was replying, somewhat tongue-in-cheek, to the other poster. Not sure why you felt I was gloating, but just having some fun.16 replies | 679 view(s)

Yesterday, 03:40 PMYeah, me either, but I have a B&W hitch. :)16 replies | 679 view(s)

Yesterday, 03:35 PMHow thick is the slip plate? If 14" it's too thick, the B&W needs a 1/8"/3/16" wear plate.16 replies | 679 view(s)

Yesterday, 03:32 PMHard to make out much detail, whether that's the edge of the roof, edge of the siding, or what it exactly is. But whatever it is, it isn't sealed....5 replies | 182 view(s)

05-28-2023, 07:47 PMYeah, pretty odd, never heard an instance of a problem with a B&W hitch, and now two on the same day. And one had a turning point hitch, I wonder...16 replies | 679 view(s)

05-28-2023, 05:08 PMSimply don't see how that could happen. The jaws are locked if they are around the pin, they cannot come loose, the design won't allow it. Sounds...16 replies | 679 view(s)

05-28-2023, 03:05 PMA high hitch on a B&W will be easily spotted: the pin will be about 2 inches above the jaws. Only a blind person couldn't see a high hitch, and the...18 replies | 466 view(s)
-
05-28-2023, 03:00 PMNope, nothing will spontaneously cause the B&W hitch to let go unless something breaks internally, which is very unlikely. I didn't see you hitch up...18 replies | 466 view(s)

05-27-2023, 06:35 AMThat was the only inconvenient part, the hose going to the pump for the antifreeze. You had to have a separate hose for the winterizing and attach it...84 replies | 14232 view(s)

05-26-2023, 09:31 PMYeah, I was thinking the same thing, and I think the worst part would be adding a gravity fill to the water tank, but it would sure be faster than...84 replies | 14232 view(s)

05-26-2023, 04:33 PMEither the regulator is bad, the pressure gauge is bad, or the water volume is insufficient to maintain 45 psi. FWIW, the pressure gauge that came on...4 replies | 206 view(s)

05-26-2023, 02:24 PMThe drop to 25 psi would be the incoming pressure and that says there's an issue with the source water pressure. Increasing the allowed pressure...4 replies | 206 view(s)
