Over 5 years ago I purchased the above power washer. The last year or so
it has been cutting out during use, I assume it is a thermostatic cut
out, I can find no reset and have to wait for quite a while before it
will restart. The cutting out has become more and more frequent to
finally be unusable. Any suggestions for a cure?


I had a different brand that would cut out after 10 minutes or so.
I took it back and was told that it had been sold with the nozzle for
a smaller washer. The nozzle was replaced and the washer has been fine
ever since. Maybe there is something stuck in your nozzle


Same thing happened to my Kaercher machine a while back - as in, crap in
my nozzle. Gave the same symptoms described by the OP.
