Engine Oil type for Pressure Washer

[Krazy_Knuck]

Hello,

I'm looking at purchasing a Black and Decker gas pressure washer BDP3100 and I'm looking at the engine manual and it states "Note: Synthetic oil not recommended". It recommends a 10w-30 oil for the engine.

Why not recommend a synthetic oil? I use a good quality synthetic in my Snowblower and gas generator and have no problems.

Thanks,

Krazy
