How to replace pressure sprayer O rings?

[munroda]

Hi All.  Does anyone know what brand pressure sprayer this is.  It's around 15 years old

Hello @munroda 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your pressure sprayer.

It appears to be an older model of a Spear and Jackson pressure sprayer. But the new sets have their connections attached to the body of the sprayer and not the cover cap. The handle set is similar and so is the sprayer. It's fantastic that you've managed to take care of the sprayer for this long. Has it finally reached the end of its service life, or does it just need new O rings? 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

I think it needs new O Rings however I am unsure what type to get and I'm not sure where they go as whatever was there before has disappeared

I contacted Spear and Jackson and they advised it is not one of theirs

Hello @munroda 

The good news is that the store carries a packet of replacement O rings - Kinetic Assorted Sizes O Ring Kit. Some of these O rings might work with the sprayer. I recommend lubricating the O rings with Kinetic 15g Tap Lubricant. This will prevent the O rings from being torn apart while in use.

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
