How to Identify and Fix Common Gardening Problems ?
We provide a variety of viewpoints on how to identify and fix common gardening problems. Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced gardeners :
To increase or lower both cut-on and cut-off pressure you will turn the nut on top of the large center spring as seen in the picture below. You will turn the nut counterclockwise to lower both cut-on and cut-off pressure or turn the nut clockwise to raise both cut-on and cut-off pressure.
Set your outlet pressure by turning the regulator knob clockwise. To decrease, turn counterclockwise. You may need to set the regulator slightly higher than the air tool recommendation to compensate for the pressure drop of the air hose or piping.
Most switches are adjustable. So, if you buy a 30/50 switch, you should be able to adjust it to 40/60 if necessary. However, you`ll need to check the maximum pressure the pump can withstand first. If it can only tolerate 50 pounds of pressure, you won`t be able to set your switch to 40/60.
Locate the high pressure switch near the compressor (a cylindrical device piped into the refrigeration system with two wires a red button on the top). Push in the button to reset. Push the rocker switch to restart the unit.
For a single level home or a two story home without water fixtures on the 2nd floor a 30/50 PSI setting may be sufficient. For two or more levels with water fixtures on more than one level you may want to use 40/60 PSI setting. It`s easier for a pump to supply the lower pressures and it`s less strain on old plumbing.
So if your switch was running at 20/40 (on at 20 psi off at 40 psi), and you tighten this nut 3 1/2 turns, you`ll increase both numbers so that the switch will now operate at 30/50 (on at 30 psi and off at 50 psi).
They are designed to maintain pressure at a preset level and are adjustable through a knob or screw. The regulator`s internal valve modulates in response to changes in flow demand, allowing more or less air to pass downstream, as required to maintain the set pressure.
All Pressure switches have two operating points known as the cut-in (Reset Point) and cut-out (Trip Point) settings. The cut-in point is for the falling pressure and the cut-out point is for the rising pressure. Every switch also includes a differential or a range based on the cut-in and cut-out points.
Most air tools require between 70 and 90 PSI. Any light-to-medium-duty air compressor can easily handle 90 PSI, but you always want the compressor to supply more flow than needed. Pro Tip: Always respect a PSI rating.

1750 psi Electric Pressure Washer: My pressure washer is losing pressure and is pulsa…
ANSWER : If the pressure washer is pulsating then that is a sign of check valve failure. You may be able to clean of replace the check valves. Replacing the head is the wrong way to go. This is completely unnecessary. If you can tell me the model number of your pressure washer then I can assist you better in pointing you in the right direction.

ANSWER : Check the oil level, if it’s very low or burnt then it may have siezed up internally.
It could also be that be that the cylinder is filled with oil or fuel.
if the washer was tipped over the fuel or oil may have migrated in to the piston combustion area.
