Quick Answer

If your cordless pressure washer is leaking water from the main body, this is usually caused by either a damaged internal seal or a seal that has come away from the motor. In most cases, this will require inspection and possible replacement of the product.


Before You Start

Before checking the machine:

  • Switch the pressure washer off
  • Remove the battery
  • Turn off the water supply
  • Squeeze the trigger to release any remaining pressure

Important: Do not operate the machine if water is leaking from the main body.


What Is Causing the Issue?

A leak from the main body of the pressure washer is typically caused by one of the following:

  • A crack in the internal seal around the product housing
  • The seal coming away from the motor assembly

1. Crack in the internal seal

If there is a crack in the internal seal:

  • Water may leak directly from the main body during operation
  • The seal can no longer contain water pressure effectively

This type of damage usually requires a replacement product.

2. Seal coming away from the motor

If the internal seal has detached from the motor:

  • Water may escape from the main housing of the unit
  • The machine will not be able to maintain proper pressure

This is not a user-serviceable repair and typically requires replacement support.
