Frequently Asked Questions

Why don’t I have any water pressure?

•Is the water hose attached to the pressure washer?

•Is the water turned on?

•Check for any kinks, leaks, or blockage in the hoses, fittings, or the nozzle.

•Is the quick connect tip in place? (See Page 10).

•Is the inlet filter screen free of debris? Check and remove debris if needed.

How do I get high pressure?

•Use any color tip except black. The black tip is only used for low pressure detergent application.

How do I get the soap suction to work?

1.Connect the clear plastic chemical suction tube to the plastic hose barb on pump, insert the other end into your detergent.

2.Install the black spray tip to apply low pressure detergent.

Why doesn’t the pressure washer apply detergents with high pressure?

Detergents “bounce” off cleaning surfaces as fast as they are applied. The pressure washer’s features allow for a detergent to be drawn while in low pressure mode only. By applying detergent at low pressure, the effect of “bouncing” is reduced. Also, detergents are only effective when time is allowed for them to work on the surface of whatever is being cleaned. After applying the detergent, wait 1-3 minutes while it works, and then proceed to rinse the surface with high pressure.

What maintenance do I need to perform on my pressure washer?

1.After turning off the pressure washer and the water, depressurize the hose by triggering the gun.

2.Remove the garden hose and high pressure hose from the pump.

3.Turn the motor on for 5 seconds to purge water from the pump. This will help protect the pump from damage.

4.Do not store your pressure washer in an area where the temperature will drop below 32˚ F.

5.Follow proper storage and winterizing instructions found on pages 13 and 14.
