To change the pump oil, place the bucket or pan you used for the engine oil under the pressure washer pump oil drain plug. For the location of the plug, refer to your pressure washer owner's manual. Remove both the oil drain plug and the pump oil filler cap, and allow the oil to drain. Replace the drain plug.
Considering this, what kind of oil do I put in my pressure washer?
All-purpose engine oils are mostly used in temperate conditions and are usually the SAE30 type is recommended for temperatures above 40ºF. However, if temperatures fall below 40 ºF, it is recommended that you use the 10W-30 oil to help your power washer start better.
Pressure Washer Pump Oil Change During normal service, replace the oil every 200 to 250 work hours, about every three months if you use your machine often, and at least every year if not.
