Relieving pressure on a Simpson pressure washer, specifically by adjusting the operating pressure, involves using the pressure control knob located on the pump.
To lower the pressure, you will adjust this specific knob.
Adjusting Pressure with the Control Knob
The primary method described for relieving pressure on a Simpson pressure washer by changing its operational level is through the pressure control knob on the pump.
- To Lower Pressure: Locate the pressure control knob on your pressure washer's pump. Turn the pressure control knob on the pump counter- clockwise to the desired pressure. This action gradually reduces the operating pressure of the machine.
- To Return to Factory Setting: If you wish to increase the pressure back to the original factory level after lowering it, simply turn the pressure control knob on the pump clockwise until it stops.
Adjusting this knob allows you to tailor the pressure output for different cleaning tasks, effectively relieving it from a higher setting when a lower pressure is required.
