• Quick accessory change: The “click-fit” attachment allows you to quickly change the brush or tool attached to the handle.
• Versatility: Designed for vehicle washing, also usable for glass facades, solar panels, etc.

Recommended application:

• Exterior washing of transport vehicles, coaches, buses, trucks, company fleets.
• Use in community settings or cleaning professions where a high-performance and ergonomic tool is desired.
• Compatible with “garden” type fitting (e.g. Gardena/Hozelock): simple connection and use.

Care instructions:

• After use, rinse the brush and handle thoroughly to remove chemical residues (shampoo, detergent) and prolong its lifespan.
• Regularly check the operation of the on/off tap, lightly grease it if it becomes hard to operate.
• Store the handle in the shortened position to avoid any damage to the telescopic ends or quick connectors.
• Replace the brush when the fibers are worn or severely deformed to maintain efficiency.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this kit suitable for heavy vehicles (trucks, HGVs) or only for cars?
   Yes, although it is perfectly suited for passenger cars, it is also designed for heavier applications such as washing trucks, buses or trailers.
2. Is the fitting compatible with my "garden type" hose (Gardena/Hozelock)?
   Yes, the 297452C handle is described as compatible with Gardena and Hozelock type systems (“click-fit”).
3. What is the maximum temperature at which the water can be used?
   The brush is suitable for hot water up to 50°C.
4. Can the handle be used without the water flowing through it (just in brush mode)?
   Yes, even though the water passage is an advantage, the kit can be used simply as a brush mounted on a telescopic handle (with or without connecting it to a hose).
5. What is the maximum achievable length of the handle and is it too long for normal use?
   The adjustable length ranges from 1060 to 1600 mm. This is sufficient for most tasks (car roofs, fleets). If you have very high areas to reach (e.g., very tall agricultural vehicles or facade cleaning), longer handles are available in the Vikan range.
6. What brush width should I choose for my needs?
   The kit includes a 250 mm brush: a good compromise for standard professional use. If you are looking for a wider or narrower brush, Vikan offers other specific models.
7. Does the kit come ready to use or does it require assembly?
   The kit comes with the brush and handle; simply screw or click the brush onto the handle (quick "click-fit" connection) and connect a water hose if you are using a water line. Assembly is straightforward.
8. Is this kit suitable for outdoor use only, or can it be used indoors as well?
   Although designed for outdoor use (vehicles, car washes), it can also be used indoors (e.g., cleaning vehicle bays, wash areas). However, the telescopic length, water flow rate, and operating conditions must be taken into account.
9. Are there any hygiene or specific precautions to be observed?
   As with any professional cleaning tool: rinse after use, avoid leaving aggressive detergents on the fibers for a long time, store away from possible freezing (especially if there is water in the handle), check that the fittings are clean to avoid contamination or blockage.
