Troubleshooting
Brush not rotating
Ensure the pressure washer is operating at the correct pressure (100-150 Bar) and that the brush is securely attached. Check for any blockages in the bristles or within the rotating mechanism.
Poor cleaning performance

Bristles are bending or deforming
Reduce the pressure applied to the surface. Avoid scrubbing at sharp angles. Clean and dry the brush thoroughly after use to maintain bristle shape.
