Just bought a new pump. I am assuming that I am referring to a pressure regulator on the 308653045. There was no manual with the pump and I have no idea if the regulator (if it is a pressure regulator) is now set at the max or the min pressure AND if a breakdown will occur if the pumpt is over adjusted . . . either way..
Would start and get the pressure up, if it seems sufficient would leave alone if not would screw clockwise (believe this would increase press) until you think it is sufficient, always remember to hold pressure switch on wand in when starting as this helps relieve work on engine.

you should be able to remove the lower acess panel, and the tension springs are on both sides, cant really picture how to adjust tension( font or back), but there should be enough room to get a flashlight and you hands under there to make the adjustment
SOURCE: high/low pressure spring settings
Generally, the pressure switch is not adjusted more than once or twice in the life of the compressor since the discharge pressure can be adjusted with pressure regulator. However the life of the compressor can be increased if lower pressure settings are maintained. Your pressure switch was set at the factory to a setting of about 120 - 150. If your cutout pressure is higher than 150 surely lower.
STEP 1: Turn Main Calibration Screw ( center screw with large spring) clockwise to increase pressure and turn counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.
STEP 2: Turn Differential Pressure Screw (small spring) clockwise to decrease cut-in pressure and
turn counter-clockwise to increase cut-in pressure.
Differential Pressure is defined as the difference between cut-out and cut-in pressure. There should be about 7 to 12 psi difference between cut-out and cut-in.
In our shop we rarely adjust more than a couple of turns because these switches are sensitive.
Good Luck and please post again if you have other concerns about your compressor.

if you bought a new pump make sure its the correct type
then check for a unloader the adjustment part like a handle or an Allen screw on the head of the pump
dismantle grease up and replace
SOURCE: i have a pressure washer with a faip 3 piston
I think your main problem is that the unloader valve needs to be lubricated. Use the very best water resistant bearing grease you can find. If you can e-mail me a pic of your unloader assembly I can try to explain how to set it up. [email protected]

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.
