PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc. GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of measure for the flow rate of water through the pressure washer. CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by PSI. Bypass Mode: In Bypass Mode, the pump is recirculating water because the trigger of the spray gun is not pulled. Chemical Injection: Feeds cleaning agents into the pump to mix with the pressurized water and

Pumps damaged due to chemicals will not be covered under warranty. NOTE: Chemicals and soaps will not siphon when spray wand is in the high pressure setting. A09608 12-ENG STARTING 8. Start engine.

Place a container under the pump oil drain plug. 3. Remove pump oil

2. Reduce the speed of the gasoline engine (RPM). Slow the engine down and the water pressure will go down with it. Step 3 is for models PCH2627, PCH3030 and PCH3540HR. 3. Adjust the pressure regulator on the pump. Turn the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise to lower pressure. Refer to the illustrations to identify your pressure regulator.
