If you are going to wash plant and machinery then the best way would be to put a large water tank, or plastic 200 litre drum, in the shed. Connect your water supply to it via a ball-cock. You could also divert rain water from gutters into the drum as well, just free flowing into it. Have a connection at the bottom of the tank with a filter / strainer and connect a hose to a power washer from it.
You could go a step further and have a connection at the start of the hose from the tank for connecting up a detergent feed.
