A pressurized fluid delivery apparatus, such as a pressure washer or sprayer, includes a pump for providing a pressurized fluid, a conduit fluidly connected with the pump to receive the pressurized fluid, a fluid accessory fluidly connected with the conduit to receive the pressurized fluid from the conduit, and a quick-disconnect assembly selectively fluidly connecting the fluid accessory and the conduit. The quick-disconnect assembly includes a male fitting coupled to one of the fluid accessory and the conduit. The male fitting includes a male component and a non-circular outer surface. The quick-disconnect assembly also includes a female fitting coupled to the other of the fluid accessory and the conduit. The female fitting includes a female component having an opening for receiving the male component and a non-circular inner surface coupled to the non-circular outer surface to prevent rotation between the male fitting and the female fitting.

We claim: 1. A pressurized fluid delivery apparatus, comprising: a pump adapted to provide a pressurized fluid; a conduit that receives the pressurized fluid pressurized by the pump; a fluid accessory fluidly connected with the conduit to receive the pressurized fluid from the conduit, the fluid accessory including a nozzle assembly configured to discharge the pressurized fluid with a spray pattern; an adjustable mechanism configured to widen and narrow the spray pattern; a housing rotatable relative to the nozzle assembly and operably coupled to the adjustable mechanism, the housing being rotatable relative to the nozzle assembly in a first direction, in which the spray pattern of the pressurized fluid is widened, and a second direction, in which the spray pattern of the pressurized fluid is narrowed; and a quick-disconnect assembly selectively fluidly connecting the fluid accessory and the conduit, the quick-disconnect assembly including a male fitting coupled to one of the nozzle assembly and the conduit, the male fitting including a male component; a non-circular outer surface; a female fitting coupled to the other of the nozzle assembly and the conduit, the female fitting including a female component having an opening for receiving the male component; and a non-circular inner surface coupled to the non-circular outer surface to prevent rotation between the male fitting and the female fitting when the housing is rotated relative to the nozzle assembly. 2. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 1, further comprising a locking assembly that is actuable between a locked position, in which the male component may be locked to the female component, and an unlocked position, in which the male component may be released from the female component. 3. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the non-circular outer surface and the non-circular inner surface are hexagonally shaped. 4. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the male fitting includes a threaded portion for a threaded connection with a matching threaded portion of the nozzle assembly. 5. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 4, wherein the non-circular outer surface is disposed at an end of the male fitting opposite the threaded portion. 6. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 1, wherein the female fitting includes a threaded portion for a threaded connection with a matching threaded portion of the conduit. 7. The pressurized fluid delivery apparatus of claim 6, wherein the non-circular inner surface is disposed adjacent the threaded portion of the female fitting. 8. A fluid accessory kit adapted to be fluidly connected to a gun of a pressurized fluid delivery apparatus, the gun being configured to selectively discharge a pressurized fluid, the fluid accessory kit comprising: a wand configured to receive the pressurized fluid from the gun; a fluid accessory fluidly connected with the wand to receive the pressurized fluid from the wand, the fluid accessory including a nozzle assembly configured to discharge the pressurized fluid with a spray pattern; an adjustable mechanism configured to widen and narrow the spray pattern; a housing rotatable relative to the nozzle assembly and operably coupled to the adjustable mechanism, the housing being rotatable relative to the nozzle assembly in a first direction, in which the spray pattern of the pressurized fluid is widened, and a second direction, in which the spray pattern of the pressurized fluid is narrowed; a quick-disconnect assembly selectively fluidly connecting the nozzle assembly and the wand, the quick-disconnect assembly including a male fitting coupled to one of the nozzle assembly and the wand, the male fitting including a male component; a non-circular outer surface; a female fitting coupled to the other of the nozzle assembly and the wand, the female fitting including a female component having an opening for receiving the male component; and a non-circular inner surface coupled to the non-circular outer surface to prevent rotation between the male fitting and the female fitting when the housing is rotated relative to the nozzle assembly. 9. The fluid accessory kit of claim 8, wherein the non-circular outer surface and the non-circular inner surface are hexagonally shaped. 10. The fluid accessory kit of claim 8, wherein the male fitting includes a threaded portion for a threaded connection with a matching threaded portion of the nozzle assembly. 11. The fluid accessory kit of claim 10, wherein the non-circular outer surface is disposed at an end of the male fitting opposite the threaded portion. 12. The fluid accessory kit of claim 8, wherein the female fitting includes a threaded portion for a threaded connection with a matching threaded portion of the wand. 13. The fluid accessory kit of claim 12, wherein the non-circular inner surface is disposed adjacent the threaded portion of the female fitting. 14. The fluid accessory kit of claim 8, further comprising a locking assembly that is actuable between a locked position, in which the male component may be locked to the female component, and an unlocked position, in which the male component may be released from the female component. 15. The fluid accessory kit of claim 14, wherein the male component includes a recessed outer surface that is engageable by the locking assembly to lock the male fitting to the female fitting. 16. The fluid accessory kit of claim 15, wherein the locking assembly includes a plurality of bearing members engageable with the recessed outer surface of the male component. 17. The fluid accessory kit of claim 16, further comprising a sleeve including a raised inner surface for selectively engaging the plurality of bearing members between the locked position, in which the bearing members are moved to engage the recessed outer surface of the male component, and an unlocked position, in which the bearing members are moved to disengage from the recessed outer surface of the male component. 18. A pressurized fluid delivery apparatus, comprising: a pump adapted to provide a pressurized fluid; a conduit that receives the pressurized fluid pressurized by the pump; a brush fluidly connected with the conduit to receive the pressurized fluid from the conduit; and a quick-disconnect assembly selectively fluidly connecting the brush and the conduit, the quick-disconnect assembly including a male fitting coupled to one of the brush and the conduit, the male fitting including a male component; a non-circular outer surface; a female fitting coupled to the other of the brush and the conduit, the female fitting including a female component having an opening for receiving the male component; and a non-circular inner surface coupled to the non-circular outer surface to prevent rotation between the male fitting and the female fitting, whereby the brush does not rotate relative to the conduit. 19.
