This pressure washer is equipped 
with a microswitch sensitive 
to water flow.  This Total Stop 
System (TSS) senses water flow 
in the pump.  When the trigger 
is released, water stops flowing 
through the pump.  The TSS then 
automatically turns the motor 
off to protect the pump from 
overheating.
