Check specs. Maybe it is designed to be run on a single spur 16amp supply. If so you will have a lot of trouble with 13 amp fuses blowing, especially at start up.

I'm afraid to say that I used to sell pressure washers in the big DIY chain I worked in, we stocked several makes over the years i worked there and Bosch ones were the worst by a long way. I love Bosch stuff but someone else makes their pressure washers and I would never buy one now - we got nearly every single one back faulty.

I think they had some at work. They seems to think holding the trigger to release pressure when switching it on helped. Not a convenient solution if the switch is in the garage though!

The 150 is not a 16amp fuse.

I have the same pressurewasher.

Agree, they are shite.
