I can also advise customers on how to use their machinery correctly and safely, helping them get the best performance from their equipment while reducing unnecessary wear and damage.

This includes guidance on the correct operating procedures, what to do and what to avoid, basic maintenance, safe working practices, and how to look after the machine properly to help increase its lifespan.

Correct operating procedures

The right way to start up, run and shut down a machine, plus what to avoid, so it performs as intended.

Basic maintenance

Simple checks and routines that keep a machine running well between services.

Safe working practices

How to use the machine, gun and lance safely on-site, reducing risk to the operator and others nearby.

Storage and setup

How to set up, use and store equipment properly so it isn’t damaged when not in use.

I can also explain common mistakes that can cause damage to pressure washers, pumps, hoses and attachments, as well as advise customers on the best way to set up, use and store their equipment.

Common mistakes that cause damage

Running the pump dry

Leaving hoses kinked or trapped

Using the wrong nozzle for the job

Ignoring early signs of wear

Storing machines in freezing conditions without draining

Mixing incompatible detergents

The aim is not only to supply the right machinery and accessories, but also to make sure customers understand how to use and maintain everything correctly, safely and efficiently.
