Product Q&A

Ask a Question

The washer is a Karcher 411A Improved model '99. Its label also contains the numbers 1.141-153 after the 411A and also Nr 066991. The inlet filter broke up and debris has severely roughened the surface of both the spring loaded pink valve in the inlet passage and the white spring loaded valve in the centre passage of the cylinder head. Are these valves supplied with a new control head or are they available separately and if so how much are they and what are their part numbers? The control head high pressure passage has also cracked but I have mended this temporarily with epoxy resin and restored the pressure but the switch still hunts which I assume is due to the pink valve allowing the high pressure to leak away. Any advice would be appreciated -thanks

Hi, I had a pulsing KB9030, low pressure. Ordered a replacement cylinder head. Fixed the issue. Only problem, water comes out of the detergent hose where it didnt before. I tried messing around with the inlet pipe for the suction pipe. Any ideas what may have happened?

Answer this question

Hi, I have a Karcher K399 presure washer and it has recently started leaking from inside. I have traced the leak down to where the inlet elbow connects to the silver casing. I think it could be the o ring that seals the inlet elbow to the casing. Can you please tell me the part number for this o ring. I have attached an image showing the o ring. Thanks

Help...!!! my K4.99m started to pulse last year but I put up with it (I think its called lethagy) I then left it outside like an idiot (worst winter for years) ....Tried to use it and water poured out from underneath..did a bit of investigation and found that the see through plastic input pipe had cracked....I then found this site and bought a new pipe and an accessories holder clip (did I mention I broke this when it fell over..!) anyway fitted the above and I had a pressue washer again..! but it was still pulsing....I'd tried the air-lock solution but no joy so went down the new cylinder head route...arrived today and I fitted it...aghhhh...the machine is still pulsing..(by the way I can't see any crack hairline or otherwise in the cylinder head...) Any suggestion as to what I can try next would be appreciated...its had a new lance and wands....

I found a socket of just the right diameter to sit inside the plastic part (the round end). The socket protruded above the casting. Tap the socket gently & repeatedly until the plastic part is pushed out. Hope this helps

Answer this question

when switched on it leaks badly from around the control head but all o ring seals appear to be ok.could the control head possibly be cracked?

  • Yes, and you won't see the crack with the naked eye, but under pressure water will gush out. Replace the head. By UncleTom - Devon - 27 February 2010

the triangular seal & 3 small valve seals appear to be ok, could the control head be cracked. it has been working ok & i just swiched it on & it started to leak badly. it is a k 3.99

  • Sounds like it probably is the control head. A replacement should do the trick. Fairly easy to fit too. By thebooks - - 04 May 2010

    Hi Pwilliams, I'm afraid I can't tell you where your leak is coming from without being able to see your washer. I'd advise you take a look at this part diagram for your model, and see where you can go from there: http://www.espares.co.uk/diagram/pressure-washers/karcher/k3.91m/p/1315/877/14/507561?ed=4001
