Surface wash pressure too high?

Hello. I have a 4200psi 4gpm machine.
Surface washer is rated at 4500 psi.
Cold water only. Concrete driveway, Residential, not overly dirty.
Should I cut back the psi of the machine, even if the surface cleaner is rated above the max psi? Please help!
Thank youđź‘Ť

Use tips to drop pressure don’t try to adjust you’re unloader.

That’s way too much pressure for Residential concrete! I go no more than 2,800psi with my surface cleaner in Residential Concrete

Take some time to read on here, You adjust the pressure by changing the nozzles not the unloader… if your new it’s pointless for me to explain you won’t understand…

Ok. That sounds great!
What tips do you recommend to get the correct pressure?
Where do I buy?
Thank youđź‘Ť
