What to do if my Briggs & Stratton Pressure Washer fails to start?
- A
  Alexander FosterAug 6, 2025
  If your Briggs & Stratton Pressure Washer doesn't start when you squeeze the spray gun trigger, check the following: 1. Ensure the water supply is turned on. 2. Make sure the unit is switched to the ON (I) position and reset the GFCI. 3. Verify that you are using a garden hose no longer than 50 ft. (15.24 m). 4. Inspect the fuse box for blown fuses and replace them if necessary, or reset the circuit breaker. Don't use a fuse or circuit breaker with a higher rating than specified. Try disconnecting other appliances and turning off lights on the same circuit, or operate the pressure washer on its own dedicated circuit.

Why does my Briggs & Stratton Pressure Washer pump have low pressure?
- M
  Micheal JohnsonAug 14, 2025
  Several issues can cause low pressure in your Briggs & Stratton Pressure Washer pump: 1. The water inlet might be blocked; clear it. 2. The water supply may be inadequate; ensure adequate water flow. 3. The garden hose could be kinked or leaking; straighten or replace it. 4. The water inlet screen may be clogged; check and clean it. 5. The water supply could be over 100°F (38°C); use a cooler water supply. 6. The high-pressure hose might be blocked or leaking; clear any blockages or replace the hose. 7. The nozzle could be obstructed; clean it.

How to fix detergent not mixing with spray in Briggs & Stratton R020833?
- J
  Jodi ElliottAug 21, 2025
  If detergent isn't mixing with the spray from your Briggs & Stratton Pressure Washer: 1. Ensure that you have selected a high flow soap nozzle setting (indicated with bubbles), not a high-pressure or high-flow nozzle without the soap option. 2. The inlet water supply pressure might be too high. Try slowly closing the water supply valve until the chemical just starts to draw; soap suds will appear when this happens.
