hey guy, im running my FX5 right now, but i dont like how the nozzle for the out put is. i was wondering if i can go to home depot and get the PVC "L" shape arm and a PVC pipe and put it in.. or if anyone else has an idea let me know.. im trying to do a spray bar instead of the nozzle

thanks
 
there are whole websites devoted to the aftermarket adaptations that are being done to the fx5, google it.
 
I had a website for it but that along with my forum and my company website went down and I am in the process of getting everything back up.

I used a CPVC 1" 90* fitting on my Fx5 for the output. It fit right in the rubber connector on the hose. Worked a lot better.
 
ya i picked up a 1" PVC pipe, 1" 90* PVC arm and the end cap for liek 2.00 something.. now i just need to cut it and drill holes and see if i can find something that can hold it in place

thanks Jgray152
 
Go to a lfs and buy a pack of suction cups to hold the spray bar. They are actually in a pack and labeled to hold heaters. They work fine
 
i did the same thing, but i put the spraybar mid level with the tank and drilled holes to blow at the surface and to blow down at debris to the other end where my pvc intake can suck up the poop.
 
oh cool, but they have suction cups that can hold 1 inch in diameter PVC pipe. i never saw it but i will check.. thanks for the help
