How much oil do i have to put in the machine
You should never have to change the oil on this machine, if you did take it apart and the oil spilled out you would fill the oil back up to the middle of the wobble plate. The wobble plate looks like a large fender washer that has a groove cut in the back where the bearing rides.
Using detergent
The first thing to do is check the nozzle setting on your spray lance. The nozzle setting is adjustable (by twisting it) and, if it's set to high pressure, cleaning fluid will not be drawn up from the reservoir. Cleaning fluid will only be drawn from the reservoir when the nozzle is set at low pressure. (Even at the low pressure setting, this problem can occur if you use an extension high-pressure hose.)
You say the machine has never been used, so the nozzle setting is the most likely cause of your problem. Other possible causes are highly unlikely to occur in a new machine. If adjusting the nozzle doesn't help, I suggest you contact the dealer from whom you bought the machine.
I hope this helps. Your feedback is valuable to me so please remember to rate this response.
Karcher dirtblaster leaking at the end
If it's leaking it obviously has a bad seal or is broken. I would try to disassemble and see if it has a seal or not. Sounds like you could have a bad "O" Ring or some other type of seal leaking but I'd bet on an "0" Ring damaged or wore out. Dissemble it and see what is sealing it and proceed accordingly.Gillight
Wobble end of pressure washer stuck
If you are referring to a rotary nozzle this is normally caused by the ceramic seat inside the nozzle becoming warn to the point that the tip can no longer freely spin against it. Depending on the nozzle that you have you either need to rebuild it or replace it. If you can send me a picture of it I can tell you what your options are and what it would cost to do so. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me using the information below.Sincerely,Aron KerrLanda Northwest,Inc.www.landanw.com[email protected]800.247.8103
