    Phil, I noticed you took the 1120T off your website and replaced it with 1122TST. What's the difference between this new model and the 2017T?

    Kranzle has about 30 more units of the 1120T.

    The new one has a face redesign but the guts are the same.

    The specs are still the same.

    1400 psi for the 1122 and 1600 psi for the 2017.

    Industrial grade unit. Gas machines are powerful but loud. I used them for years. IYou can also run these flat if you needed to lay them down for any reason. Also you can siphon water from any source be it a bucket, sink, pond etc and more. It's a tank of a machine.

    So it doesn't need a water hose attached to it. Impressive, another thing to order now.

    I was gonna start a thread to ask this but Ill just ask here. I have the 1120T BTW.

    1. Can I run the machine upright if need be? I know it lays flat to avoid tipping over, but I was wanting to know if I still performs upright.

    2. How does one go about siphoning water from a bucket/tank/etc..? I didnt really understand how from the directions. do you just take a hose and dunk the end that would normally be attached to a water tap and put it in a bucket?

    3. I believe I was under the impression that you can draw chemicals from that little clear hose and have it come out the sprayer, correct? I tried doing this once and failed. Any tips/directions?

    I can answer this one as I have rebuilt mine and in doing so spent time over the telephone with Kranzle's US service department asking a multitude of questions.

    Never run this unit in the upright position as it can cavitate the water inside the pump assembly = bad.

    So it needs to lay down?? The opposite for regular electric pressure washers, lol

    Interesting stuff here. I didn't know it had to run laying down i just knew that it could run laying down.

    You needed to rebuild yours already? Do you use it a lot or is it like premature failure

    Yes, the manual states that it must be used horizontally. I’ve never run mine in any other position, but when I went to rebuild it I asked why it had to run this way and was told by the service department that it’s to avoid cavitation that can damage the pump.



    I purchased my unit directly from the US Kranzle distributor around 1998, but didn't get that much use out it and very low hours. What happened is the ends of the pump plungers mushroomed that led to the ceramic sleeving chipping off the plunger. Kranzle has since modified the ends of the plungers and most likely the plunger itself. When I rebuilt mine I replaced all three plungers, seals, etc.; they sell kits for rebuilds.
