I asked a question on here about 3 or 4 months ago, as having not used my pressure washer for some months it had started leaking. It made a rattling noise when I moved it. It was suggested the fault might be the O Rings. I have a Karcher extension hose between the front of the unit and the pressure gun. That has seized onto the pressure washer, and however hard i try i cannot shift it. As a result I hadn't got round to stripping the washer. Leakage can also take place because the press fit/screws are not working correctly. Or, the O-ring of the hose might be broken or damaged. How to Fix –The labelling on the lance (3 - Hard, 2 - Medium, 1 - Soft and Mix - for detergent application) relate to use with a Karcher G145 Q Power Control Gun as the gun will display the pressure setting in relation to the labelling. In that case, the coupling and the seal will have to be replaced. The process of replacing the connector is extremely easy. Also, detach the chemical injection tube, the metal clamping plate, and the switch assembly to free the pump from the loosened piston assembly. You can pull apart the manifold and the lower part of the pump.
