The UPS truck delivered my pressure washer today. I thought I would share some pics. I haven`t ran it yet but I will this weekend.

You`ll enjoy this washer. In addition to helping you wash your vehicles, it`s fantastic for lots of stuff around the house.
If you want to decrease the PSI but still keep the GPM, simply opt for nozzles (tips) with larger orifices. Consult a nozzle chart, like this one, to determine the orifice size required for the pressure you want. GPM will remain the same. When cleaning just tires, opt for the green nozzle, and if they`re off the vehicle, use a yellow nozzle for kicking butt and not taking names!
The washer will start more easily if you start it with the trigger pulled.
Don`t let it run in bypass mode (trigger not pulled) for more than about 60–90 seconds.
A chief noise offender on this one is caused by the vibration of the frame where the top portion and bottom portion connect. I believe if I could silence that noise, the washer would sound good.
Think of it more as a 3000 PSI washer than a 3100 PSI washer. Generac squeezes that extra 100 PSI from using a shorter 1/4" hose. You`ll probably want a 3/8" 50` hose, which will drop the PSI from 3100 to 2950–3000. GPM will remain the same.
Soaping with the black nozzle on things is not very effective or fun compared to using a foam cannon.
Enjoy and have fun!

Very nice. Blast away !!
I ended up buying a foam cannon and a turbo nozzle.
I used the search engine on the site to look at the reviews for a foam cannon.
Sure is high quality cannon based on the construction.

What do you plan to use the turbo nozzle for
Personally, for most applications - I don`t like the turbo nozzle IMO. Tendancy to do more harm than not...
For crete cleaning, a surface washer is far better...
The turbo nozzle isn`t for the cars. It`s for the driveway and barbecue. And I have lots of pavers too.

I know there is a huge $$ difference but a surface cleaner is way better than the turbo....
Pavers IMO don`t get dirty though.....
Crete, yes.
I would do a test spot hidden away with your turbo....
Water cleans. It`s all about the GPM`s...
Turbos IMO are over-rated and do more harm than good, even with trained hands !
Nice pressure washer, you will have many cleaning hours with that baby!
.
Pavers get a white film on them after so many years. And the turbo did a great job on them, Even the professional paver power wash companies use them out here. I even used it on a section of my drive way that had both rust and old oil stain that the previous owner left. Came off like nothing. Maybe you have the wrong type for your power washer...
