How to fix a pressure drop in my Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer?
- D
  Desiree McdanielAug 14, 2025
  If your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer experiences a pressure drop, there are several potential causes. First, air might be trapped in the system; vent it by operating the spray gun at short intervals. If necessary, run the cleaner briefly without the high-pressure hose connected. Also, a blocked or worn high-pressure nozzle can cause pressure loss, so clean or replace it. Ensure the pressure control on the spray lance is correctly set to your desired working pressure. Check that the detergent container isn't empty, and replace it or close the detergent valve if needed. Finally, verify that the water inlet temperature is within the specifications outlined in the technical data.

What to do if the motor switches off on my Nilfisk-Advance MC 6P?

  If the motor on your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer switches off, it could be due to overload protection being activated from overheating or overloading. Check that the mains voltage and the cleaner voltage are the same. Switch off the cleaner and allow it to cool for at least 3 minutes. Another potential cause is a dirty high-pressure nozzle, which would require replacement.

Why does my Nilfisk-Advance MC 6P Pressure Washer motor buzz but not start?
- M
  Michael JacobsAug 26, 2025
  If your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer motor buzzes without starting, the mains voltage may be too low, or there could be a phase failure; have the electrical connection checked. Alternatively, the pump might be blocked or frozen; contact Nilfisk customer service for assistance. Lastly, an incorrect cross-section or length of the extension lead could be the cause; use a lead with the correct specifications.

Why is my Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer having pressure fluctuations?
- A
  Angela GoodmanAug 28, 2025
  If you notice pressure fluctuations in your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer, first, ensure the water tap is fully open. Next, verify that your water inlet hose meets the specifications in the user manual, as an incorrect hose can cause issues. Also, a blocked water filter can restrict water flow; clean the water filter located in the water connection, ensuring you never operate the washer without it. Check that you are within the maximum permissible suction height, consulting the technical data. Finally, if using suction mode, inspect the suction set to ensure it is airtight.

Why is there a pressure drop in my Nilfisk-Advance MC 6P?
- A
  Allen SmithSep 1, 2025
  A pressure drop in your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer can occur due to several reasons. It might be caused by air in the system. Try venting the system by operating the spray gun several times at short intervals; if needed, operate the cleaner briefly without the high-pressure hose. Another cause could be a blocked or worn high-pressure nozzle, which would require cleaning or replacement. Also, check if the detergent tank is empty and needs to be topped up, or ensure the detergent setting is not active if not needed.

  jennifer10Sep 5, 2025
  Pressure fluctuations in your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer can stem from a few issues. If you are using suction mode, ensure the suction set is airtight to prevent the pump from drawing in air. Make sure the water tap is fully open and that the water inlet hose is adequate for the machine's water flow requirements. A blocked water filter could also be the culprit, so clean it (never operate the washer without a water filter). Finally, ensure you're adhering to the maximum permissible suction height as outlined in the instructions.

How to fix no detergent being drawn into my Nilfisk-Advance MC 6P?
- A
  Adam LaneSep 9, 2025
  If your Nilfisk-Advance Pressure Washer isn't drawing in detergent, first check if the detergent tank is empty and top it up if needed. Ensure the cap on the FlexoPower-Plus nozzle head is set to low pressure. If you're using a double lance, make sure it's adjusted to low pressure as well. Lastly, the injector might be dirty, or the suction hose could be blocked; in this case, clean the affected components.
