soap dipencer problem

Most people make the mistake of using a high pressure tip on their power washer while trying to get the soap dispenser to work. These tips are usually red, green, white or yellow and they cause too much back pressure at the dispenser for it to work. You need to use the soap tip, they're usually black, for the dispenser to work properly.

I have a SIMONIZ S2000 electric. I bought the unit about 8 weeks ago used it once. On the second use yesterday the unit didn't work as well, the pressure seemed only a bit better than hose pressure and soap did not dispense at any pressure. SO.... after much thought I turned the hose/tap pressure down so that I only got about 2-3 GPM instead of the typical 5-6GPM normally coming out of my hose....... it worked! Soap dispenses and spay is way better! It seems that if if the inlet hose pressure is high the pump doesn't work as well... go figure.

the unit will only **** up solution when the pressure is low, thats how they all work so you cant use pressure at the same time. You will notice that the pressure drops when using the solution ****..
soap 1st the pressure wash.

You will need to adjust the nozzle on the end to low pressure.

Hello awseibel:

1. attach your garden hose to the inlet (at the back I believe)
2. Attach high pressure hose with gun wand/nozzle
3. turn on the water
4. plug into electrical outlet
5. turn on/off switch on
6. spray away
7. Any non-caustic soap can be used
8. You must set the machine on low pressure to apply soap.
   

you need to put black tip on cause it wont siphon under pressure

Hi,

I had the same problem on the same unit. All you need to do is pull out the front tip of the gun nozzle to engage the soap dispenser. It's as simple as that, but because there is only a tiny footprint mention of this in the instructions, it turns out to be a long drawn out problem for many of us. Hope this helps.

You have to use the SOAP nozzle (Black Tip)  It is a low pressure nozzle.  The venturi effect prevents the psiphon under high pressure
