The round surface cleaner is best on driveways , should do it in half the time. Like Whirlaway type 12-15 inch, being a smaller machine you can get the ones that fit to the end of your existing wand with the click fitting cost less as well.

It only got hard to pull because you didn't have the gun held open so you were building pressure. That is also the reason you had difficulties starting it, you were fighting the pump.

As always, great video!

Good work with this one! Love the idea of the channel logo on the driveway :) Fun video!

You have to squeeze the trigger on the pressure gun to relieve the pressure when starting it up. To make it start easier, use full choke and then turn off choke immediately. It should have started by the second pull. I've been using a pressure washer every week for almost 20 years. For the driveway, it's best to use a rotary nozzle.

Hi, don't leave it running too long without pulling the trigger. You will cook the pump if you do, Cheers.

Glad you got it running. Now you need to purchase a turbo nozzle they are great accessory. I purchased one from Harbor Freight. Wow what a difference it makes. You just have to be careful when using it because it is very aggressive.

The driveway looks good .

I hope you purchased a surface cleaning attachement..... could have had that driveway done in no time.

Thanks for sharing. Also, for consideration, pre treating the area assists in streamlining the process. May The Lord bless you

LOL, just buy a $30 turbo tip dude. Much faster than the 15° nozzle, 2 hours tops. If you have a bit more money, you can move at _warp speeds_ (45 minutes) with a decent 15" wide surface cleaner for around $70 or $80, with an 32" lance (the one that comes with it is way too short). Of course at that point, you could just start you own cleaning business, and pay for all of that stuff in maybe less than a dozen residential jobs, or one or two businesses. I've been eying a Simpson PS2338 for a bit now, but am wondering if it is overkill for personal use. But it has such a NICE warranty (3 years on the Honda GX200, 5 years on the pump, and 10 years on the frame). I'm probably going to spend another $150~ $200 on accessories like a gutter cleaner, a couple of longer lances, maybe a surface cleaner, and definitely a turbo tip for cleaning cement

Dude, make your life easy. Squeeze the trigger so water flows when pulling. That thing is a 1 pull start all day every day when you have the water flowing. One, maybe 2 pulls max with choke then shut that off so you don't flood it.

I have the same one except mine has the Kohler 6.5 HP s.h engine

Never over fill the oil,it's treacherous for engines. Get a pump and drain it.

Gonna burn that pump up that gun should be pulled even before you start it and don’t let it just run without the gun releasing the pressure and that pressure washer will last forever
