Anyone have the link to the video for the Hydroforce valve repair? Cant seem to find it
Someone posted a video sometime last year and I cant find it, I saw that chart of videos but they download to my laptop and I dont know which one I need.
Mine started to spray only water sometimes and chemical at other so I bought the repair kit and tried to switch it out between jobs but when I opened it up the ball and spring fell out so I just put swapped out the new ball and spring but not the seals. Bad mistake trying to save time thinking I would fix it after the job as now the hydro force fills itself back up with water if the sprayer isnt triggered.It's pretty self explanatory by just paying close attention when pulling it apart.
Minute debris often is the culprit so be on the lookout for the tiniest of calcium particles or fiberous matter
Oftentimes when they spray water, it's because the plastic/latex tube is cracked.Mine started to spray only water sometimes and chemical at other so I bought the repair kit and tried to switch it out between jobs but when I opened it up the ball and spring fell out so I just put swapped out the new ball and spring but not the seals.

That is the video I need, thanksChances are the only one that will really help is the check valve repair video. They don't actually have one on repairing the valve itself although I think they should. You should be able to watch the video on your laptop once downloaded. Those are windows media files though so I don't know how they work with a mac. Pretty sure they should though. I don't know of any way to put them in a post. I though they might have them on Youtube, but can't find one.
What is the problem with your sprayer? The check valve is pretty simple if that's all it is. I would need to know the specific problem. Check valve repair is probably the most common and not really hard to do. No way to link this video.

Thank god. I thought "Bio" showed up and shit all over it.I moved this to the "ask our repairman" section of the forum and made it a sticky so it can be easily found when someone needs it.
Can you believe they wanted almost $70 for the valve? I was gonna just buy one and switch it out because I am super busy and thought it would save time but $70I moved this to the "ask our repairman" section of the forum and made it a sticky so it can be easily found when someone needs it.

I seen that but shipping is about 50% and it would take 3-4 days to get it. I need to order some Pro10K and it would be nice if they could slip the block into the case and not charge me another $13 for shipping on top of the $30 for the Pro10K
My first appointment is at 10:00 tomorrow so I am going to bring it in and do it step by step watching the video in the morning.Did you get it fixed? To me it sounds like you may have put the spring in backwards. I've done that before and it won't work. Good idea since you have the parts to go ahead and change them all out, but make extra sure that spring is in there right. This is fixable. Shouldn't need a new valve.

I should of switched out all the parts earlier but I was in a hurry as my helper spent an hour vacuuming and there was no action in the house and I felt rushed. That damn spring gets a lot of guys I bet.I'm pretty sure you'll be ok as long as all the parts are put in correctly, especially that ball and spring.
Yeah, it's an easy mistake. The spring keeps the valve closed shut when there is no suction coming from the valve by solution going through it. The valve just produces enough suction to cause that little ball to collapse the spring and let the chemical out into the solution line. When the spring gets weak or if it's put in wrong it lets the container fill up.I should of switched out all the parts earlier but I was in a hurry as my helper spent an hour vacuuming and there was no action in the house and I felt rushed. That damn spring gets a lot of guys I bet.
Without seeing the video I would have put the spring in upside down figuring the large end is where the ball would sit.I should of switched out all the parts earlier but I was in a hurry as my helper spent an hour vacuuming and there was no action in the house and I felt rushed.

Yeah trying to rush a repair always costs us time in the long run, one day I'll be able to have someone else make the errors and get mad at them.Without seeing the video I would have put the spring in upside down figuring the large end is where the ball would sit.
