The specific length of the high-pressure hose is typically detailed in the product's full specifications, but the PW 240 is designed with flexibility in mind.

How should I store the pressure washer during winter?

To prevent freezing damage, drain all water from the pump and hoses. Store the unit in a frost-free location. Consider using a pump protector fluid if storing in an area prone to freezing.

Is assembly required upon receiving the unit?

Basic assembly is typically required, such as connecting the handle, attaching the hose reel, and connecting the high-pressure hose and water supply.

Troubleshooting

Unit does not start

Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working GFCI outlet. Check if the water supply is turned on.

Low water pressure

Verify the water source is fully open. Check the water filter for blockages and clean if necessary. Ensure the high-pressure hose and nozzle are not clogged.

Motor stops during operation

Check for power interruptions. The unit may have overheated; allow it to cool down before restarting. Ensure the water supply is constant.
