Landa pressure washer LT 4035-4000 psi. Why is it losing pressure and continually pulsating?

Motor runs strong, Pumps pressure is weak and pulsating. Water feed is fine. Could it be internal- Piston wear or easy fix like Check Valve replacement?

If the pump is pulsating rapidly most likely valves are leaking or debris under valve keeping one or more from closing. If the pump pulsates slowly, comes up to pressure then low pressure then repeats, problem is pressure regulator /bypass. Or you could have a combination of both. Try lowering the pressure to lowest setting to see if slow pulsation stops. As parts age within pump and debris hinder operation you can no longer operate at full pressure. To make the pump last, use highest pressure as needed and everyday work using only 60 to 75 percent of capacity.

SOURCE: Need to lower 1750 psi to 300 psi on my portable power washer.

Don't starve the inlet to the pump. It will detroy it.
Buy a pressure regulating valve and plumb it in line per the instructions. Do not use a relief valve because you will have to have a return line or you will heat the water up on the inlet side of the pump depending on how the pressure washer is set up. It should already have a safety relief valve. You might look and also find a pressure regulator that is adjustable and all you problems will be solved.

How do i fix a honda landa 3500 pressure washer, when the water doesn't come out when started?

Check out the trigger mechanism. Water should come out at any time, even when you do not have the unit started.

There are 2 different places to add oil to my 3500 Honda engine pressure washer (cold). Do I use SAE 30 for the motor oil and gear oil for the other oil?

you can use sae 30 in the motor and hydraulic oil or gear oil in the pump.
just note that there may be two oil filler holes on the motor.

Cuts off when you try to spray

The problem you are describing lies in the engine. In most cases this can be cleared up by doing a tune up. In the meantime you can try choking the engine slightly and see if that keeps it running under pressure. This will usually solve the problem with the smaller GC and GX series Honda engines until you can do the general maintenance.

13hp honda motor what is the right psi for it

It will depend on the pump that you have but the most common versions will be the 13HP PC4-35324 which is a direct drive unit or a PG4-35324 which is a belt drive unit. In both cases the machine would be 4GPM at 3500PSI.

Low pressure and pump pressure adjuster makes no difference

Replace the pressure adjuster and everything will work. When you lose pressure and the adjuster is not adjusting to allow more or less then you need to replace it. It has a valve in there that is most likely broken and the valve is not opening and closing anymore.

I have a landa hmp-4-3500 heated pressure washer and i am problems with the water heater. where can i find a trouble shooting guide for this machine

Landa does not have a model HMP so I am not sure which machine you have. If you can provide a full model and serial off of the model tag on the machine I can provide you with a digital copy of the manual you are looking for.

I need to buy a pressure washer for residential/commercial work

Were I to pick from one of those three, I would pick the Landa. The most reliable pumps are Hotsy and since Karcher bought Landa and Hotsy, those three brands now have Hotsy pumps, though it doesn't say it on the machines.
