If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer starts and stops frequently by itself, it could be due to a leak in the pump or spray gun, or a broken trigger mechanism. Please call Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563) for assistance.
Why is my SNOWJOE SUNJOE SPX 3200 Pressure Washer pulsating?
If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer is pulsating, it could be due to several reasons: * There might be air in the inlet hose. To resolve this, allow the machine to run by holding the trigger until regular working pressure resumes. * The water supply may not meet the required specifications. Check that the water supply is adequate. * The nozzle could be partially blocked. Clean the nozzle to remove any obstructions. * The water filter might be blocked. Clean the water inlet filter. * The hose could be kinked. Straighten out the hose to remove any kinks or blockages.
What to do if my SNOWJOE SUNJOE SPX 3200 Pressure Washer starts, but no water comes out?
If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer starts but no water comes out, the issue could be due to several reasons. The pump, hoses, or accessories might be frozen – wait for them to thaw. Alternatively, there may be no water supply – connect the inlet water. A blocked water inlet filter or nozzle can also cause this problem; clean both to ensure proper water flow.
Why does my SNOWJOE SUNJOE SPX 3200 Pressure Washer have fluctuating pressure?
If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer is experiencing fluctuating pressure, it could be due to the pump sucking air. Check to ensure the hoses and connections are airtight. Another possible cause is dirty, worn out, or stuck valves; in this case, clean or replace the valves and seals. Finally, worn out pump seals can also cause fluctuating pressure; please call the Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563) for assistance.
What to do if my SNOWJOE SUNJOE SPX 3200 stops working?
If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer stops, the thermal sensor may have activated. Leave the washer for 5 minutes to cool down. Alternatively, the nozzle might be partially blocked, so try cleaning it. Also, check if the battery is flat and needs charging.
How to fix a SNOWJOE SUNJOE SPX 3200 Pressure Washer that refuses to start?
If your SNOWJOE Pressure Washer refuses to start, check that the battery has sufficient power and is inserted well. It also could be due to power failure.

This document describes the Sun Joe SPX3200 Electric Go Anywhere Pressure Washer, a device designed for residential medium-to-heavy duty cleaning tasks. It is suitable for cleaning boats, motorcycles, RVs, ATVs, trailers, decks, barbecues, siding, and patio furniture.
The pressure washer operates by generating a high-pressure jet of water to remove dirt and grime. It is equipped with a pump encased in a shock-absorbing housing, a spray wand, and a non-slip handle grip for optimal user comfort and control. The unit is designed to be used with cold or lukewarm water, as higher temperatures can damage the pump. It is crucial to use only clean water, as dirty or gritty water, or water containing chemical products, can impair operation and shorten the machine's life.
A key feature of this pressure washer is its Total Stop System (TSS), which incorporates a micro-switch sensitive to water flow. When the trigger is released, water stops flowing through the pump, and the TSS automatically turns off the motor. This protects the pump from overheating, conserves energy, and prolongs the pump's life.
The pressure washer includes a detergent tank for applying cleaning agents. It is specifically designed for use with pressure washer-specific detergents like Sun Joe HOUSE + DECK WASH, SNOW FOAM AUTO WASH, or HEAVY DUTY CLEANER. The use of household detergents, acids, alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents, flammable materials, or industrial-grade solutions is strictly prohibited as they can damage the pressure washer and the cleaning surface. When using detergent, the unit must not be set to a high-pressure setting. The detergent dial allows for adjustment of the suction volume of the detergent solution.
For safety, the unit is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) built into the power cord plug, offering additional protection against electric shock. A thermal sensor protects the motor from overloading, allowing the machine to restart after a few minutes once it has cooled. The spray gun features a safety lock to prevent unintentional operation.
The pressure washer offers versatility in cleaning with its Quick-Connect nozzles, which easily snap onto the spray wand's collar. Five different nozzles are included, each designed for a specific spray pattern and cleaning intensity:
To operate, the unit should be positioned as close as possible to the water supply, with the trolley wheel locks engaged to secure it. The washer must be used on a secure and stable horizontal surface. Before plugging in, ensure the unit is switched off and that the electrical supply voltage and frequency match the rating plate. The GFCI may require a reset upon initial plug-in. The water supply tap should be turned on completely, and the safety lock on the trigger gun should be disengaged to allow air to escape and discharge residual pressure before starting the machine. The ON/OFF switch (pressure select dial) allows selection between LOW (I) or HIGH (II) pressure settings.
When using detergents, the soap nozzle (black) must be installed. Detergent should be applied from the bottom to the top of the dry surface, as pre-wetting can dilute the detergent. It's important to allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing, but not to let it dry, especially on painted surfaces. After detergent use, the tank must be drained and rinsed with clear water to prevent clogging of the injection system.
For rinsing, the appropriate nozzle should be selected based on the cleaning task. The process involves turning off the pressure washer, shutting off the water supply, pulling the trigger to release pressure, engaging the safety lock, and then connecting the desired nozzle.
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and performance of the pressure washer. Before any maintenance, the unit must be disconnected from the power supply.
