At first you may assume ithe Makita HW 131 will do all those tasks you wish to accomplish
BUT first of all you have to get the beast started, couple it up! press the button !!! and nothing happens (mmmmm) it has fused , replace fuse same thing happens then you realise you have to turn the pressure valve to low ah! success but you have to remember to do this every time you attempt to start the darn thing. Next and worse thing to happen is the pump head needs replacing ( £86) and it appears it is quite a common problem with this contraption and I may add it has hardly been used and the warranty has just ran out as usual,everything built these days seem to have a lifespan of 13 mths or just over and built in Italy or china under a Japanese brand name, needless to say no more Makita in my shed from now on
