Just a tip - when you're spraying the vinyl, try and position yourself to spray down rather than straight into it. Less likely to force water behind the siding..

The main thing that I sometimes find difficult is getting the air out of the system. You want to do that before starting the motor, and it can be very difficult if you are downhill from your water spigot. Also store this thing in your basement in the winter -- if you freeze the pump you'll need a new one.
@joshmix92 жыл бұрын
I store mine in an outdoor shed in winter. I just flush the pump with oil before winter
@aceallenk Жыл бұрын
Flush the pump with RV antifreeze. If you have to just pour a couple cups of antifreeze down a garden hose and pull the recoil cord to pass the antifreeze through, you don't need to start the machine. Remove the high pressure hose to see the antifreeze come through, and blow out the high pressure hose with a compressor. Not to complicated. Some of the seals and rubbers inside a pump might not be petroleum grade rubber so might not be good advice to use oil...

The height is for a lower center of gravity. Due to its higher output. if it were to have the other style mount it would tip over by a simple jerk of the hose.
@quensimpson82823 жыл бұрын
Exactly, this is one of the reasons I specifically went with this style. Less likely to tip over when moving around etc. I had a Generac before and had to always be careful when pulling on the hose and moving it around not to tip it over. Much easier to happen than you think. This was thoughtful design by Simpson.

I finally blew a second pump . It had a honda motor which is a big deal to me but the pump was a vertical type at the bottom and that kinda sucks. plus the frame kinda sucks as well. hard to move around. I needed a honda motor with a horizontal pump which this has so we shall see i guess

I have no idea why they did not just send the right handle to the same address as they shipped the pressure washer to! I called back and they put me on hold for a half hour. I eventually had to go to due being extremely busy. I called again and again and just got their vm. I left vm's confirming all my info and please send the right handle. They never did. I spent 2k and they are pitiful. Won't buy from Simpson again.

They arent the same specs by a long shot. The Stihl has a 430cc engine and a 4200 psi pump. It also has a vibration dampening system and a much higher quality pump. The Simpson is for residential use and has a low quality pump. There is much more technology and quality in the Stihl unit. Its like comparing a Chevy Cobalt to any BMW. Yes, they are both cars and carry the same amount of people but, there is quality in one and just a few cheap components thrown together on the other.

Candyman sounds like you left the gas in it. Normal gas has a chemicals called ethanol with causes clogs and gums ups in your carburetor. The carburetor is the metal dome thing that makes air to gas ratio then injects it into the engine. So to fix it all you got to do is take off the carburetor, open it, and spray and clean all the passages with carb cleaner and wire. To prevent this from happening. Add Stabil fuel stabilizer to your gas.

This power washer is useless. It has not soap tank. So I guess they want you to carry around a 3 gallon soap container with your 3rd hand. Or if you prefer you can move the soap bucket every 3 feet as you move around the house. Let me add that it sits about 1.5 feet off the ground so if you are taller than 4 1/2 feet you have to bend over every time you move it and do a crab crawl if you are moving it any distance. Did I mention the muffler is right on top of the motor with no protection from the hose touching it and blowing a hole in it? What about no fuel shut off, did I mention that? In the back of a truck it will get flooded and won't start, come storage time, you either run the gas tank dry and carb or use stabilizer for the fuel (which I do not like to do) Just purchased this unit and will be returning it tomorrow. Thanks for the review, this is not directed towards you, it is towards the manufacturer.
