Q: Which AR Pump is it exactly. Since there's one AR pump I've been advised to steer clear of, I'm especially curious. Thanks. by Troy Stevens from Oregon on January 14, 2015
A: The pump used on this unit is a RSV4G40. It is a industrial grade AR triplex plunger pump. by Brian, Product Expert
Q: Hello Bill, Also I want to ask, Does the Briggs & Stratton Elite Prosumer 4000 PSI able to reduce the water pressure down to around 2800 psi? Because some of the time I need to work with very delicate stuff and some time I need the power to degrease heavy machinery. Thanks for you answers Victor by Victor on September 17, 2012
A: Yes, this model 20507 does have an adjustable unloader valve installed on the pump. You can lower the psi rating ouput of this machine all the way down to approximately 200-300 psi if needed. by Brian, Product Expert

5 Of These In This Family
I'm retired and it is a little heavy for 60 yr olds plus but I think it's a great machine. I use it for my driveway and deck cleaning.
My son tried mine out and bought 4 more for his business and they run them all day. This is the 2nd yr and still all working great.

Still Hasn't Arrived!
Ordered this two weeks ago and still has not arrived. contacted Pressure washers direct to see where it was and all they told me was to call the shipping company. Terrible customer support. Got my money, now they don't care. Wouldn't recommend buying from them.

Roy,
I'm sorry you misunderstood the reason your tracking information tells you "Please contact customer service @ 1-800-448-4389". That is the number of R&L Carriers, the freight company that will deliver your pressure washer.
Unlike UPS or FedEX, they do not "dump and run" with your order. Freight carriers need to talk to you to set up a day and time for delivery since they are going to load several orders on a semi-truck. Usually the folks at the freight company will try several times to contact you by phone as well.
I will re-email your PRO number (tracking number for the freight company) to you again through your account so you can contact R&L and get your pressure washer delivered as quickly as possible.
I purchased this pressure washer a couple of months ago. And I absolutely love it.
I also purchased a rotary nozzle which makes this thing rock. I have cleaned concrete without using degreaser or any soaps and it ate grime and grease like no tomorrow.
I highly recommend this machine for the price.

Good Machine
I use it for my pressure washing business, it is a smaller operation, I run the machine for about 12 hours every week.
I've been doing this for about 3 months now. Zero problems, I do maintain it at the scheduled intervals. It has a ton of power, I'd recommend it to the homeowner who wants the biggest, baddest pressure washer they can reasonably handle or to anyone starting out a pressure washing business.
It can be tough to start if you aren't strong, keep in mind, it's loud as hell! If you have neighbors prone to noise complaints, look for another machine. It sounds as loud as a train.

Carlos,
Please remember that gas-powered pressure washers are easier to start if you squeeze the trigger gun and let the water run for a minute or two before you try to start the engine. The gets all the air out of the pump and makes it easier for the engine to turn over.
This should be done every time you try to start the engine.
Excellent Pressure Washer But Takes A Little Muscle To Start
Really like this pressure washer and it's features. One and only downside seems to be starting of the generator, which seems to require a bit of muscle to start. I have no problem starting it but my wife cannot.
Pros:Features, Easy To Use, High Quality, I'd Buy It Again

Dan,
I'm thinking you meant that the engine is hard to start... You may want to squeeze the trigger gun and let the water run for a minute or two before you try to start the engine. This drives out any air in the pump, making it easier to start.
Since the pump and the engine are directly connected, air in the pump can cause "vapor lock" making the engine very hard to turn over.
I LOVE my pressure washer. The "How to choose a pressure washer" tool was what really made my purchase perfect.
We have a huge patio around the pool, huge driveway plus side walk, patio furniture, etc.. so I needed something "bigger" than the last one bought at a box-hardware store. I cleaned the patio with it in 3 days whereas my old one it took a week. The power and nozzle allowed the work to be done quickly and more efficiently.
The fact that the tips click into their own little spots on the machine is great so you don't lose them. The ease of switching tips is great so you can do multiple tasks without having to go find the tips. The gas tank is large enough to run for several hours. The machine moves easily and has good turning radius. The hose from the machine to the sprayer is long enough that I can work my way around the pool without having to pull the machine with. The control buttons are easy to reach and marked clearly. The safety button on the spray handle is great so you don't accidentally start the sprayer as the dog or husband walks by.
I've been able to get so much more spring work done with this machine and I'm still enjoying doing it. I would buy this one again in a heart beat.
Also, when they delivered it to my house I used the lift office service and figured I was getting taken, but he took it off the truck and dollied it up my hill to the garage! That was totally unexpected and appreciated.

Briggs And Stratton Power House
You really can't go wrong with a Briggs & Stratton 2100 Series 420 cc OHV Engine.
This 4000 PSI pressure washer made by Briggs & Stratton packs plenty of punch for chores around the house or work on the job site.
It's perfect for the entrepreneur starting a pressure washer business or the high-end homeowner who insists on the best equipment available.
The durability of the AR triplex plunger pump on this machine makes it an overall great choice for pretty much all applications.

Reliable
This review is as legit as it gets. I've had this pressure washer for 4 years and use it at making extra money on weekends. This is the most simple professional grade pressure washer that you can buy.
Follow manufacturer's guidelines and this will be possibly the last washer you'll buy.
Yes its a little heavy, but 2 people can lift with ease. When you start it, enjoy all that you can clean. Oh, by the way, it's perfect with rotary surface cleaners.
HAPPY WASHING.
Pros:Durable, Price, Exceeded Expectations, I'd Buy It Again
Cons:Heavy

Glad to hear that your pressure washer is performing year after year and you are able to use it to assist others along the way! We couldn't agree more that it works great with a surface cleaner!
