K.E.W Service & Repair Forum

I have recently acquired a K.E.W. Pressure washer and am trying to find information about it. It appears to be from Denmark and in the Model box it just says Hobby. Another box on the ID plate says 62 bar. The gauge on the machine reads 0 to 150 and on the face of the dial it says X 1000. THAT WOULD BE A LOT OF PRESSURE! Let me know if you can help.
