  If your Kärcher Pressure Washer's engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the gas tank is full. Next, check the oil level and add oil if the low oil level sensor is activated. Make sure the choke lever is fully closed. The engine throttle should be about 1/3 of the way toward the fast position. Finally, release any built-up pressure by squeezing the trigger.

Why is my Kärcher Pressure Washer not reaching high pressure?

  Stacey BakerAug 1, 2025
  If your Kärcher pressure washer isn't reaching high pressure, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure you have enough inlet water supply by turning the water on full force and checking the garden hose for kinks, leaks, or blockages. If the pump is sucking air, check that hoses and fittings are airtight. You can also try turning off the machine and purging the pump by squeezing the trigger gun until a steady flow of water emerges through the nozzle. Another potential issue is a clogged water inlet filter, which you can remove and rinse in warm water. Lastly, the spray nozzle could be obstructed; try blowing it out or removing debris with a fine needle. If the gun, hose, or spray wand is calcified, run distilled vinegar through the detergent suction tube.
