Here is the ultimate pressure washer guide for
you.

• Check for freight damage It is necessary to
  check for freight damage once you receive the
  pressure cleaning machine. If you are working on
  a damaged electronic machine, it may be a risky
  affair. Any damage to the machine should be
  reported to the manufacturer immediately.
• Check for oil level Always check for the oil
  level of the pressure cleaning each time you use
  it. When using the machine for the first time,
  mostly all the power wash machines are
  pre-checked on the oil level. In case the oil is
  delivered separately, it is owners
  responsibility to fill in the oil wherever
  required.

• Check for water supply Gallon Per Minute Every
  pressure cleaning machine has a specific
  requirement of Gallon Per Minute (GPM) of water
  supply. You can check the GPM rate of your water
  by using a 5-gallon bucket and a timer. If
  adequate GPM rate is not achieved it may result
  in damaging your pump. Never let you pump be dry
  in any condition.
• Check for water quality Water you are using for
  pressure cleaning should not contain particles
  larger than 80 microns. The power washing machine
  has filters installed but they are not good for
  the long run. Therefore is necessary to check for
  sand and scale particles in the water used for
  pressure cleaning.

• Remove Air It is also very important to remove
  any vacuum in the power-cleaning machine.
  Therefore, switch on the water supply and let the
  water flow from the gun. In this process, also
  check for any leakage in the pressure cleaning
  machine.
• The Unloaded Valve You get two options in power
  cleaning. The first one is Trapped Pressure
  Unloaded and the other is Flow Actuated Unloaded.
  These unloaders help in regulating the water
  flow. In the absence of unloaded a very high
  pressure of water will be created. This can be
  very dangerous. The unloaded is a safety device
  in a broader way.

• Hoses and Couplers Industrial facility supplied
  hoses are estimated long and width for best
  operational execution and size inside the weight
  abilities. Extra hose added to the machine may
  change the execution of the machine. Whenever
  supplanting or detaching the snappy couplers
  makes sure the machine is closed off and pacifies
  the weight from all hoses.
