Why should you bother doing regular maintenance to a high pressure washer?
There are at least 6 reasons why we need to do the maintenance:
1.keep your washer run its best
2.Prevent breakdowns
3.Avoid inconvenience
4.Ensure it performs consistently well
5.Avoid costly repairs
6.Prolong the life span
And how can we perform a routine maintenance?
There are several key aspects you need to pay attention to.
1.Flush out the pump after every use
Pressure washers consist of simple systems, the washer receives a stream of fresh water from a faucet or a tap or a tank. The pressure washer has a part to receive water, and as the water flows into the pressure washer, the main pump raises its pressure to a higher level and push it into the hose and finally to the trigger gun or a spray gun to finish the cleaning job.
So the pump is an important part of a pressure washer, make it keep the well condition can last times of usage. To flush out the pump can also make it possible to storage and keep it well through cold winter to prevent it from freezing inside.
Damages may occur by the stems from the high pressures generated inside the pump. However, the corrosion caused by prolonged exposure to water is the main reason for pump damage. To prevent such water from causing rust to form, so you should flush out your pump after every use.
1.Check if there is any leaks in hose
If you've noticed your high pressure washer leaking, it could be a sign of a loose connection. If you've noticed the hose isn't connecting securely, it may be a cracked or brittle rubber O-ring. To remedy this, you'll need to replace the rubber o-ring.
In addition to leaking water, damaged hoses can cause serious injuries. Even a pin-sized hole in the hose can cause high pressure water to cut concrete and punch a hole in flesh. Do not try to patch up a hole with duct tape. This tactic won't hold the pressure and could even be damaging to your hands.
If you have a high pressure washer, it is important to check the hose to avoid damage. High-pressure hoses are designed to evenly distribute pressure across the length of the machine. They contain layers of materials and specially designed wire mesh. Repairing a leak in one part of the hose will only result in a distorted hose that will not hold the pressure. Besides saving you time, replacing a hose will give you a confidence in pressure washing your home or garden .
2.Relieve pressure in the machine and turn the switch off before storage
Turn off the pressure washer and the water supply, unplug it from electrical outlet, and then point the spray gun away from any people or animals and run it until the water stops flowing. And engage the trigger lock and let the pressure washer cool down.
And even more important, all the high pressure washer we provide has the function of total stop system, AKA TSS stop system. It means when you release the trigger, the washer stops, but the motor is still running, so you must turn off the switch to shut down completely in your daily use. It will also prolong the life span of high pressure washer.
