What to do if Kärcher K 5.68 M output pressure varies high and low?
- A
  Allison SantosAug 23, 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 any kinks, leaks, or blockages that may be restricting water supply. Another possible cause is that the pump is sucking air. To resolve this, check that all hoses and fittings are airtight. Turn off the machine and purge the pump by squeezing the trigger gun until a steady flow of water emerges through the nozzle. Also, the water inlet filter may be clogged, remove it and rinse in warm water. Lastly, the discharge nozzle could be obstructed, blow it out or remove any debris with a fine needle. A calcified gun, hose, or spray wand can also cause this issue; if this is the case, run distilled vinegar through the detergent suction tube.
