Rotovac says there is no repair kit for the angle valve. Hafta buy the entire valve. Is there a repair kit out here?

The water cut off valve? Just replace it.

How many do you need? The first thing I do with the RVJR is eliminate the trigger valves and install a female quick connect. My HP supply line is set up with a ball valve shut off and male QC.

Here is my RV360xl showing how I have it set up.

What’s the advantage?
easier on your hands from gripping?
better flow?
or simply less parts to worry about with wear and tear and replacing?

It saves holding the trigger on for extended lengths of time. I turn the valve on and can get consistent heat across a large area as I clean.
Yes it saves 'hand and forearm pump'. You can see I have a thumb switch for on/off functions.
It doesn't show in the pic, but my lead HP line has the adjustable flow valve that came with the SS upholstery handpiece.

Thank you bud.
rotovac needs to fix this...if they ever shut down, trigger goes south, no replacement part...that’s not good.

Turns out there is a repair kit for the angle valve. It’s a soft touch valve. Freaking monkeys that answer the phone at RV said there is no way to repair that valve. Played with it today and what do you know, the bottom nut pops outs. Bad spring in it.
spent $46 plus shipping back a few months ago on their recommending to replace the valve when all it needed was an $8 repair. Thanks a lot. A chart with the alphabets by the phone would be in order.
Wish Adam was there...he would have steered me correctly.

yup. Thata her. Or the WP soft touch valve altogether if you need to replace it. Shop both around as well.
