  Matthew NicholsAug 18, 2025
  If your Yard Force pressure washer isn't reaching high pressure, consider the following: * Replace the garden hose with a 1” (25 mm) or 5/8” (16 mm) garden hose if the current diameter is too small. * Check the garden hose for any restrictions like kinks, leaks, or blockages. * Ensure the water source is fully open to provide enough water supply. * Clean the water inlet filter by removing it and rinsing in warm water. * Replace the power nozzle with the desired high-pressure tip. * Inspect hoses and fittings to ensure they are airtight. If the pump is sucking air, turn the machine OFF and purge the pump by squeezing the trigger gun until a steady flow of water emerges through the nozzle.

  If the detergent isn't working in your Yard Force pressure washer, consider these possibilities: * Make sure the detergent container isn't empty; add more detergent if needed. * Check that the detergent bottle or suction tube is properly connected. * If the detergent is too thick, try diluting it. * A clogged filter on the detergent suction tube can also cause issues; run warm water through it to remove any buildup. * Check for a damaged or clogged detergent suction tube; remove any obstructions or replace the tube if necessary. * Ensure the nozzle is in the low-pressure position (black tip). * The discharge nozzle could be obstructed; blow out or remove debris with a fine needle.

  If your Yard Force Pressure Washer motor isn't running when it's turned 'ON', fully connected, and the trigger is depressed, here are a few things to check: * Ensure the On/Off switch is in the 'ON' position. * Make sure the power cord is properly plugged in. * Verify the extension cord isn't too long, of the correct gauge (use a 25’ (7.6 m) 14/3 gauge cord or a 50’ (15 m) 14/3 gauge cord), and undamaged. * Try a different electrical outlet to rule out power supply issues. * The pressure washer thermal protector may have tripped; allow the unit to cool before restarting.
