FAQs

Is this pressure washer suitable for delicate surfaces?

While it has variable pressure capabilities, it is best suited for robust surfaces like concrete paths, patios, and vehicles. For very delicate surfaces, using a wider fan nozzle and keeping a greater distance may be necessary, or consider a lower-pressure washer.

What type of maintenance does this unit require?

Regularly clean the water inlet filter to prevent blockages. After use, flush the system with clean water and store it in a dry place. Check hoses and connections for wear and tear.

Can I use this pressure washer with my own cleaning solutions?

This model typically uses detergent or shampoo via an integrated or attachable tank/bottle. Refer to the product manual for specific instructions on using cleaning agents and compatibility with external detergent systems.

What is the warranty on this refurbished unit?

As this is a refurbished product, warranty details may vary. Please check the specific product listing or contact customer support for information regarding the warranty period and coverage for refurbished items.

How do I connect accessories?

Accessories connect to the spray gun via the quick connect system. Simply push the accessory onto the fitting until it clicks into place. To remove, press the collar on the fitting and pull the accessory away.

What is the power source?

This is a corded electric pressure washer, meaning it requires a mains power outlet to operate.

Troubleshooting

Pressure washer not starting

Check that the power cord is securely plugged in and the power outlet is functional. Ensure the water supply is turned on and the hose is properly connected. Verify that the water filter is not blocked.

Low water pressure

Ensure the water supply is adequate. Check the inlet hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the water filter. Make sure all connections are tight and leak-free.

Water leaking from connections

Tighten all hose connections at the unit and the tap. Inspect O-rings and washers for damage and replace if necessary. Ensure the quick connect fittings are properly seated.

Motor stops during operation

Check for overheating; allow the unit to cool down. Ensure the power supply is stable and not overloaded. Check for any blockages in the hose or nozzle.
