A hose washing machine is provided including a frame and a pair of brushes supported by the frame in opposed relationship and for receiving a hose therebetween. Each of the brushes has a planar brush face engageable with the hose, and the brushes are supported for rotation about an axis transverse to the planar brush faces. The brush face of one of the brushes is positionable in opposed mating relation with the brush face of the other brush, and at least a portion of each of the brush faces engages the hose and moves in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the hose. A first motor is provided for rotating one of the brushes in one rotational direction, and a second motor is provided for rotating the other of the brushes in an opposite rotational direction. The hose washing machine also includes apparatus for spraying detergent onto the hose including a nozzle and a pump means for supplying detergent to the nozzle, the pump means including a reciprocable pump piston and a rotatable cam engaging the pump piston for driving the piston, and the rotatable cam mounted on a rotatable shaft of one of the motors for rotation therewith.
