UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ruclips.net/user/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.
Great video. Thank you. This has helped me to better understand how to setup and properly start my first ever gas powered pressure washer, specifically, a Generac Model 7019 (3100PSI, 2.4GPM) which is very similar to the one in this video.
Thank you for the video because I was having issues starting my new PW which is the same model as this one. It is important to note that the manual shows the letters "on" and "off" on the switch but the actual machine has the symbols "o" and "/" so they don't match and created confusion. Also the choke does not say on or off position it only has a symbol. It started right up when I knew were the levers and switch needed to go.
Wishful thinking if you think it's going operate just like the company infomercial. Not so with mine. It's a fight to get it started and once it does start expect a choppy experience. Mine won't start again. Shop around - bells and whistles are just that.
I struggled with mine at first but I have to keep referring back to this video on how to turn it on. What I have done that is different is that I cut the fuel when I’m about to be done. Then I let it run out of gas by itself. That way there is nothing in the gas lines before storage. I saw that tip in another video. I’ve had my generac washer for two years and it’s been fine.
Same problem. Completely replaced carb. Worked fine first day. Next day will not start. Took apart carb again and cleaned new spark plug. No good. Very unreliable
@@visualcontrast I've got 75' of pressure washer hose. My garden hose doesn't need to be really long. That being said, unless your hose has sprung a major leak somewhere it should deliver the same amount of water no matter it's length. I have 150' of garden hose but when I'm using the pressure washer most of it stays on its reel. But the presenter was saying not to use more than 50 ft of garden hose, and like I said, I'm using 150 ft whether it's on its reel or not and I can't tell any difference.
I had the same issue. The manual is a bit vague here, referring to a "black hose," which I didn't see. Be sure siphon hose is attached as shown in this video. I stuck the other end directly into the gallon soap container and it began to draw soap right away. Hope this helps.
Just received new generac power washer with the same issue - unit does not siphon soap. I mean this can't be that difficult to resolve unless the unit has an issue. I contacted generac support and was advised to dilute detergent 20:1. Will try this tomorrow. I'm not convinced the detergent is the issue.

Starts after 1 pull. Guy cleaning a pristine brick walk way. I wish my pressure washer usage was like this.

What are the proper lever setting to start engine?
"O" is for off and "I" is for ignition
You will see these symbols on almost any on/off switch on a small engine
Which one is the on top or bottom
My machine starts up great all of a sudden it started smoking like crazy. What a guy to do.🤷🏽
Brand new?
You have to much oil in it
mine did too, you need to move the choke to the close position 1:31 1:36
Long overdue video.

I just got a 3200psi, It purrrrs out of the box.
Just watch out for the soap tube. I melted mine because of the asinine placement of the tube being to close to the hot elements
Does the soap only dispense on low pressure?? Or can you soap-wash on high pressure like at car wash?
Got your choke direction backwards.
Where would you put shock if using it?
What attachment do I use for siding on a house
On the back were you put the hose for the soap Minds stripped out what do I do
Why should it make any difference what length your garden hose is?
Rebel9668 I was wondering the same
Water pressure looses pressure . The longer the hose less pressure.
Maybe so you can move around when washing? Otherwise you want have much range when you need to move.

Good call, thanks for explaining. I guess the one or two I’ve used don’t have terribly long hoses. Thanks for clarifying.
These are instructions for the first year of use only...
Quiero comprar una maquina de esta como la obtengo
Won’t start
I can't get the unit to siphon the soap out of the dispenser... Is there an on or off switch?

I know these comments are old but if anyone else has this problem you need to use the black tip nozzle that is for soap use. Hope this helps.
You have to use the black tip is the onlyone that will syphon soap with
Such a gay tutorial
