Foam Cannon HP Pressed Strainer 3-Pack
Proper care and maintenance is important for the Foam Cannon HP to have a long operating life. The Foam Cannon HP requires very little maintenance with the only serviceable part being the pressed strainer, which is the part that helps to create the foam. If your Foam Cannon HP doesn't perform like the day it was new, the pressed strainer needs to be replaced. This guide explains how to disassemble the Foam Cannon HP to replace the pressed strainer.
This is what the main assembly of the Foam Cannon HP looks like. Everything is there except the canister.

Disassembly of the Foam Cannon HP is very easy and requires only basic hand tools. An adjustable wrench, a small pair of channel locks, and a mini screw driver is all takes to get the job done. To get things started, you need to remove the parallel pin from the nozzle knob. To do this, simply punch the pin out using a mini screwdriver. Once it's exposed, grab a hold of it with a pair of channel locks and remove it completely. Do not lose this piece!
