Cat offers two different 66DX models, one that has 3.5 GPM (66DX35G1I) and one that has 4.0 GPM (66DX40G1I). The pump on this machine has the 3.5 GPM model.

Cat Pump recommends 2X the flow on a booster pump. Example: 3.5 gpm Cat Pump means a 7 gpm booster. The booster psi does not need to exceed 40 psi, but will work with less.

NorthstarExpert7· 5 years ago
A pump than can produce 20% more flow than the pressure washer's flow output will be needed. 4.2 GPM would be the minimum needed. I would recommend item 2685562.

Thermal protector is it for freezing weather?
-
ChuckL21· 5 years ago
The pump should not be used in freezing temps. To store when not used use RV antifreeze or a pump protector product to replace the water in the pump. It also helps lube the seals.

The thermal relief valve keeps the pressure washer operating in a safe range to prevent overheating.

How do I hook up power washer hoses
1 answer-
NorthstarExpert11· a year ago
The pressure washer hose is equipped with quick couplers. Simply pull the collar back and push the coupler onto the water outlet nipple. The collar should slide over the ball bearings. Release the collar, making sure it springs back and reseats to its original (non retracted) position.
