    Hi Marcus. Thanks for the interesting video. I have uploaded complete service tutorials for high-pressure cleaners such as Karcher, Nilfisk, Elektra Beckum, and Lavor. One of them is the Nilfisk E 140.3 cleaner repair manual, which is more or less identical to your Nilfisk E 145.4. However, they have a few small details that are different. One of them is, for example, how the high-pressure hose is connected to the reel (winch). My cleaner is different, so I can't upgrade it to the hose you bought. But still, your video and advice are perfect for many who have a similar connection method as you. The reason why you have so few views (currently only 210 in 5 months), even though your video would help many, is that you do not have so-called keywords in the title of the video and also in the description of the video and possibly keywords with hashtags in the description of the video. For example, add "Nilfisk" to the name and it will already help the KZread algorithm to recommend your video to those who are looking for similar videos or are solving a similar problem and would like to replace the high-pressure hose with a better one. Hopefully, this will help you a little (I'm no expert in this field since I have a very short channel too, but this is said to help, as well as a lot of "likes" and comments under the videos) and your videos will get even more views and your channel it will grow faster, which can help you monetize. Good luck. Greetings from Slovakia. Slavo.
