Questions & Answers
By changing the tips on the nozzles, you can adjust the PSI. Spray pattern degrees and distance from the surface being cleaned play a significant role in decreasing the PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) applied to the surface, based on the spray pattern and tip face size. The black soap tip has the largest face and is the least effective.

When I bought it, I bought it in order to clean dirt off bikes at the track, and it works perfectly.
I used to drive out to the car wash and spend tens of dollars of quarters just to keep my stuff clean. Now, I won't need to spend a fortune on car washes. It's packed with three quick-connect pressure ends (you might want to order another set of higher quality ones) and about half a bottle of Motor Oil 10W30. My choice was Mobil 1 Synthetic, since it takes about half a quart to a quart and a half to power the motor. After I filled it up with premium gas for the first time, it began to fire immediately. Whenever I pull the trigger, it starts reliably and on my second or third attempt. You don't have to worry that you will damage things like car paint or vinyl siding when using it. In case this is the price range you're looking at, and you would prefer not to use a pressure washer, it makes sense to consider a gas pressure washer. It is a find to find such a machine. Smoothly, the engine runs and there is no strain on the pump.
It ran ok for a while, then died. It was easy to follow the directions, put in the gas, oil, etc. Upon checking the gas level, I found that it flowed through the system. Although I filled it fully, the car went through the gas pretty quickly, despite the full tank. The engine would die after a minute or so after filling it up one more time. The engine kept dying after I was forced to start it three more times. The trip may have to be repeated.
Getting started, here are some things I didn't like I must mention*br It is recommended that the unit be shipped upright as specified on the manufacturer's box. It was packed in another box, with the engine on its side. Oil escaped from the engine onto the box because it was on its side. There will still be some oil inside the engine even though the engines are shipped without oil.
During operation, the latch that holds the handle in the upright position will not stay secured, and the mechanism will unscrew itself from the vibration and fall out, causing the handle to flop over into storage. Due to the inversion of the handle, then, the nozzles that are stored in it fall out as well. I must mention*br There is no easy way to get to them. I must mention*br Connectors for the sprayer are solidly attached to the hose, so you have to manually untwist the hose before using it, so the twist you put into the hose when you connect stays there. Here are five great things
I was able to get started right away. The run went Engine is quiet and has a good power rating at Within an hour and a half after I pulled it out of the box, I had run two and a half tanks of gas through it. Thus far, while there are a few issues related to a few of the points above, I'm quite happy with the situation. I have a list of work to do this week, so I will put this to the test in the coming weeks. It is not something that you would use every day, but it seems like it will be okay for occasional or seasonal tasks. I will update this review if I encounter any problems.
