I got the parts list from Russ. 1,544.08 is what he gave me for all the parts on the list. Is that what you got? Did you get everything on the list? How much did you get the predator 670 for? I know they're currently back at 999 but last week Google came up with a link to HF website with a couple code and had them at 855 I think.
how has the engine been? thinking about getting one but hearing they can be headaches as well. thinking I just might get a honda and take the purchase pain for a bit.
That pipe nipple you used to connect the unloader to the pump will see full outlet pressure all the time, plus the vibration and the weight of the unloader. I would strongly recommend you consider making sure that is a heavy duty part, like a stainless Sch80 part. They are $13 from McMaster.
The only thing I would recommend is to run the engine for 3 hrs on idle before assembling it to break it in. At least it was that way for my 13hp build.
I just ordered that same pump, it's 7gpm/3600psi but can go up to 8gpm with a bigger engine, but I mean, it Maxes out at 8gpm. It's a 2-gunner and/or gun/surface cleaner. And it comes right handed from Italy but when it comes to the US, they switch some to left. So the machine is ambidextrous 😂😂
Nice set up, just put together a 420cc with 4000psi 4gpm. I like your set up, where did you get pulleys, belt(size), mounting plate. I'm planning on building on like yours. Let us know how it works.
Just got my stuff from Russ. Geez that water pump is huge, weighs like 60 or 70 lb, I wear a size 16 shoe and it's about the length of my foot. The water pump and the unloader are a lot bigger than what they seem on TH-cam or websites. I got the GP YU21405 unloader. Everything else looks about what it appear size-wise.
These videos are good Very hard to forgive out everything that is needed. No parts listed on these videos. When you go to the recommended website I can’t find a kit
to remove the second pulley, remove the two setscrews then insert it into the hole 90 degrees from the other two screw holes. and it will push the sheave off the bushing
So where did u get the skid plate and pulley’s? I’m trying to do the same thing for my next rig. Help would be great. Thank you! Love the videos. Looked through the links and the skid isn’t in there or the belt. Plz help
That's what I need to know, I am replacing my dead Honda for the Pedator. The shaft is smaller on the Predator. Googling for it is worthless.Help! Please!

Hey mike how did you tensioned the belt without getting the pump misaligned when I tighten down the alignment bolt on the side the belt tensions but my pump gets misaligned and pulls to one side
Hi, Hey just wanted to say "Thank You" for the is video. You explained how to install and take off the belts on these types of pressure washers. I couldn't find a good video on how to install or change belts. Didn't know about the bolt under the pump to add and release the tension on the pulley. Just to make sure. So basically can i just release the bolt then change the belt without taking off the pulley? Or do i still need to take off the pulley first, then loosen the tension? Let me know if that correct. Again, THANK YOU! Michael C - (WA)
and. how the heck did you get the bolt in and tightened that is back side bolt of pump that is behind the shield? the bolts are totally blocked by shield, you got to bolt from bottom of skid right? but how you hold bolt on top of skid plate under pump that is behind shield? thanks!
on the outlet side of the unloader, I'd put a stainless steel sched 80 tee in there and attach a 5000psi liquid filled pressure gauge so you can adjust down the pressure if you like.
I'm new to the industry - I was wondering how you could adjust down the pressure if I wanted to. Do you have recommendation for where to get stainless steel sched 80 tee?
Southside equipment in kentucky call them they shipp all across us his mame is russ johnsom. Tell mike from Oleyn's Pressure washing sent you hell know exactly wht u need
@@vincesmith5846 I ended up buying a pulley that was close to the correct size and am having a machinist bore it and fabricate the bushing. Since I started this process I have found some kits online. envirospec.com/catalog/pulleys-bushings/ I would call the company above to ensure compatibility but that should do it.
What’s up mike! Just checking in to see how the engine is holding up? Any recommendations since having it for a while? I’m thinking about building me a 4gpm
showing that cash man! fat wallet, man you make that looks so easy, hardest part in this whole plan for finding parts and knowing ratios, was for me, the pulleys, sizes, where to buy, and the belts,
Here is your formula you need to know.......PSI X GPM / pump rpm x 1.5= hp needed. So. In other words. 3500x8 =28000. ...... 28000/1460? =19.17 The 19.17 is what you need for HP using electric motor..Check documents for pump rpm .. but for gas power you multiply the electric horsepower x 1.5 to get the horsepower needed for gas engine..... in your case it’s 28.76 hp....
You can do all that math you want but if that’s true then clearly NONE of the Honda gx690 Motors would be big enough yet they all run them pumps good so
@@Oleynspressurewashing Thanks for the vid!! Back in early 90's I had 2 honda 13 hp machines, one with a 4 gpm and one with an 8 gpm, both Cat pumps. Yes, 8 gpm on 13 hp honda motor. A rolling outfit in kent, WA sold these 8 gpm machines as roof cleaners. The rinse power was great, little softer wash for cedar roof. I washed similar age roofs side by side with each machine. I used both of them for years. The 4 gpm got about 3500 psi, ran for 2 1/2 hours one tank. The 8 gpm machine got about 1800 psi and ran for 1 1/2 hours same size gas tank. My friend had 2 machines, 18 hp hondas with 8 gpm pump, and that 18 hp was just way better than my 13 hp 8gpm, but my machine worked great for many years, no complaints, when washing roofs or houses of dark cedar or moss etc, (1800 psi not enough for serious peeling/cleaning). I can tell you, 22 hp on 8gmp is way more than enough hp imo
Hey I am currently doing the exact same thing u are , I have same motor and kit from Russ , worked on it for about 6 hours today and I’m having some problems could u give me ur number ? , I have some questions, thanks
Hey know problem brother.. I just wanted a parts list on the pressure washer build.. if possible can you email it to me at decapressurewashing@gmail.com
Atomic935 don’t mess with the belt drive stuff, go to Envirospec and get a gear reducer ! I had belt driven units when I first started then sold that trailer and built a new one with gear reduced units and I will never look back! So much easier and safer , never have to worry about belt tension and if you have a problem with the engine you don’t have to fight getting the pulleys off and fighting the belt guard, space saving too
I don't know about that 1 I'm pushing close to 10 gallons per minute I've been using it for 6 months flawlessly so I don't know where you get your information but it's working out great for me.
This pump requires 1,750 RPM for 8.8 GPM. At the engine's maximum torque, it's at 2,500 RPM. It's more than enough. I know guys running this same pump on small Honda gx390's and they get around 5.6 GPM. This pump says it pushes a max of 8.8 GPM but going even higher, with the right parts, seems achievable.

(not for serious peeling/stripping power, but for washing cedar roofs or washing houses) I used both of them for years. The 4 gpm got about 3500 psi, ran for 2 1/2 hours one tank. The 8 gpm machine got about 1800 psi and ran for 1 1/2 hours same size gas tank (just lack of hp to get more psi, and worked harder, how long a tank of gas lasted was big difference).
