Pressure washer help

I have an old WAP DX820 diesel fired hot water pressure washer, the burner fires ok, but it's not making pressure.

Just wondered if anyone on here knows much about them, and could give me some pointers of where to start looking.

There doesn't seem to be much info available online for WAP and i can't find a manual anywhere.

Cheers

Al.

Cheers, is that like a bypass valve ? i'm guessing you mean it might be stuck open, so no pressure can build ?

Is it supposed to close when you press the trigger.
