Rubber Dust Covers For Hydraulic Couplers On Tractors
David Chapman, Henderson, Texas: "Here in East Texas we have what we call ędirt daubers', which are moist clods of dirt that plug up equipment. I recently got my pressure washer out to do some cleanup work. It hadn't been used for a while and I found that the pressure hose hookup was plugged by a dauber. It had dried so hard I had to drill it out and flush the pipe before I could hook up. When I finished the job I put some tape over the end but it wouldn't stay in place. A few days later, I was in a local farm store and spotted rubber dust covers that you use to cover hydraulic couplers on tractors. I bought one for $3 and it was a perfect fit for the pipe on my pressure washer. The retaining ring fit over the pipe so I don't have to worry about losing the cap. A simple solution that works."
