Easy to install

it was supplied with a steel option it was fitted to a BMC racer lawnmower in place of a useless plastic adaptor which could not fit a standard hose end. the existing hole had to be enlarged but now works well

Fitted perfectly in holes on ride on mower

worked well on my ride-on mower

Installed easy and fit nicely (Cub Cadet zero-turn). Works great. First season so can't speak to durability yet.

Le paquet de base était ouvert avec un cutter et bien sûr il manquait une rondelle en cuivre (Vus le prix au kilogramme ?) dommage pour les futurs clients, à qui la faute ?

I installed the metal version of the squirter (it comes with two versions plastic and metal). Hook it up to your garden hose before you install it and observe the spray pattern. This will help you visualize how it should be installed on the deck. The rotation/orientation is super important. I installed mine so one side shoots across all three blades of the JD L120 deck, and the other side sprays into the blade right beside it. I measured the smallest circle of the fitting with calipers and used a step drill to make a hole that big. Then I hand filed the rest of the 2-3mm away, test fitting as I went. You dont want to make a round hole that will allow the fitting to rotate. We hook up the hose and run hot water for 3 mins with the PTO engaged and grass pours out the bottom. We mow 3.5 acres so sometimes if we see the deck is leaving stripes of tall grass we take a minute to wash out the deck and resume cutting. Works every time. Before we park the tractor we wash it again to make sure the grass clumps dont dry into place. If this happens, you can still wash them out, it just takes longer, like 5-6 minutes. Spray comes right out the chute on the side opposite the water fitting so I know its reaching everywhere. This was a great upgrade for a 20 year old tractor.
