The pressure washer does not have an adjustable pressure unloader on the pump. You may reduce the pressure by reducing the engine throttle. The slower the engine, the lower the flow rate and system pressure. Also, increasing the distance between the spray tip and the surface being cleaned. Stepping backwards from the spraying surface will lower the pressure to the item.

Where do I connect my chemical injector ??

This pressure washer includes a downstream chemical injector. Press the braided chemical hose over the chemical injector located on the top of the pump. Submerge the suction strainer that is at the end of the chemical hose into a bucket containing the chemical solution.

Can I use a 100 feet hose instead of the 25 feet that comes with it
1 answer-
productexpert6· 3 years ago
You would be able to double the 25 ft to a 50 ft hose without losing any pressure. Using 100 ft hose you would loose up to 7 pounds per square inch of pressure.
