Why does the output pressure of my Kärcher Pressure Washer vary?

  Hayley BrownAug 19, 2025
  If the output pressure of your Kärcher Pressure Washer varies, ensure that the water is turned on full force and check the garden hose for kinks, leaks, or blockages. Verify that the hoses and fittings are airtight to prevent the pump from sucking air; if necessary, turn off the machine and purge the pump by squeezing the trigger gun until a steady water flow emerges. Also, clean the water inlet filter by removing and rinsing it in warm water. Clear any obstruction from the discharge nozzle using a fine needle, and if there's calcification, run distilled vinegar through the detergent suction tube.

  Tammy SchroederAug 21, 2025
  If your Kärcher Pressure Washer's motor won't start, first ensure the On/Off switch is in the “ON” (I) position. Check that the power cord is properly plugged into an electrical outlet that supplies adequate power; try a different outlet if necessary. Also, check the GFCI plug and press the “RESET” button. If a circuit breaker has tripped, switch off the pressure washer; it will reset automatically once the unit's temperature drops.

  If your Kärcher Pressure Washer isn't reaching high pressure, first ensure that your garden hose has a diameter of 16 mm (5/8 inch) or larger. Check the garden hose for any kinks, leaks, or blockages that may be restricting the water supply. Make sure the water source is fully open to provide enough inlet water. Clean the water inlet filter by removing it and rinsing it in warm water. Finally, verify that the spray wand is set to the high-pressure position.

  If your Kärcher Pressure Washer is not dispensing detergent, check that the detergent siphon tube is properly connected. If the detergent is too thick, dilute it, or use Kärcher detergent for best results. Make sure the filter on the detergent siphon tube is not clogged by running warm water through it. Inspect the detergent siphon tube for damage or clogs, removing any obstructions or replacing the tube if necessary. Ensure the spray wand is in the low-pressure position. Clear any obstruction from the discharge nozzle using a fine needle.
