Depends upon the type, but a pin normally works (if it's the small circular hole type)

Pins worked well with the older water nozzles. The last time I adjusted my nozzles I used a thick darning needle, a pin is a bit narrow on the new style nozzles.

I actually have the tool you need, bought for my S204 but I have different nozzles! I've just sent you a message asking for your address, hope it works, thought you had to have 30 posts to use PM's!

Anyone reading this thread be aware, I had a nozzle problem with my S204 and needed just a replacement nozzle, MB would only sell the complete pipe and nozzle run from the pump to the front OS, so I ended up buying second hand from a breaker and only using the part I needed, namely the OS OS nozzle, for far less than 1/2 what MB wanted for the full bifta.
