How Do You Keep Your Trigger Guns Open?

I use my workers and tell them to not let go!!! lol
 
I prefer velcro too. If you cut and fasten a piece snug at the top you can just slide it down to engage whenever you want it.

Yep that's what we do too for long jobs. Slide down it's on, slide back up its off. Couldn't be any simpler and you don't have to "chase balls."

What the hell is wrong with just using your hands?..??? Granted my forearms feel like Popeyes but it works and no accidents. Now if only I could use my stomach mussels more I could drink more beer!

Really hinders my dance moves if the gun's not tied off...
 
I use big clamps. They work well and for some reason you drop the wand the clamp would probably come loose. Can't think of to many times I've dropped the wand though.

Gorilla tape and use a ball valve.
 
Hey guys. Be very carefully with this. I learned the hard way a few years back. I had my hose get wrapped around a parking pole behind me and I didn't know. I was walking away from and pushing dirt. The line got tight and I wasn't expecting it. It was like someone pulled the line from behind.
Long story short I had surgery on my left knee to get the fibers from my jeans out of my leg. It happened so fast. Just a freak accident.
I haven't locked the gun since.

The whole idea of locking the trigger on a pressure washing gun seems like a no brainer to me. My guns have safety’s on them so that you can lock them OFF which makes sense to me, not that I have ever used the lock.
Locking the trigger in the ON position would, to me, be like tying the accelerator down to the floor in a car, seemed like a good idea at the time but turned out to be a pretty dumb thing to do.
Wouldn’t it be safer to just change hands or take a minute to flex your fingers for a moment? Surely you are not on such a tight time frame that you have to create a hazard for yourself and others by tying the trigger On.
