What to do if my Lavor Pressure Washer starts but no water is coming out?

  Matthew JohnstonJul 28, 2025
  If your Lavor Pressure Washer starts but no water comes out, the pump, hoses, or accessories might be frozen; allow them to thaw. Ensure the machine is connected to a water supply and the tap is turned on. Check if the unit water filter is clogged, and if so, remove and clean it. Also, inspect the nozzle or spray gun orifice for clogs; remove the lance from the gun and clean the nozzle with the provided pin.

Why is there no pressure in my Lavor Pressure Washer even though the pump is running?

  Susan MunozAug 2, 2025
  If your Lavor Pressure Washer pump runs but there is no pressure, first, check that the water delivery rate is at least 12 l/min. Then, inspect the suction filter for fouling and clean it if necessary. Also, ensure that the nozzle regulator valve is not in the lowest pressure setting; increase the pressure by turning the pressure regulator on the nozzle. For a worn lance nozzle or fouled suction/delivery valves, contact your authorized customer service center.

Why is my Lavor Pressure Washer not picking up detergent?

  Sara LyonsAug 15, 2025
  If your Lavor Pressure Washer isn't sucking in detergent, start by checking if the detergent tank is empty and fill it if needed. Ensure the nozzle regulator knob is not turned to “+”; turn the regulator knob to the low-pressure setting. For a damaged or disconnected transparent pick-up tube inside the appliance, or a plugged drain hole of the tank, contact your authorized customer service center.

  If your Lavor Pressure Washer pump doesn't start when you press the switch, make sure the plug is correctly connected to the power socket. If the plug is connected properly, have the electrical socket checked for faults. Also, ensure that the mains voltage is sufficient for the appliance. If the electrical power lead gauge is too small, refer to the “Safety notes / electrical connection” section. If the pump has cut out, turn the switch to ON while keeping the gun lever pressed; if the problem persists contact an authorised service centre.
