Operating Instructions

Read and understand the entire manual before operating the pressure washer.

Follow these instructions every time you use the pressure washer.

I.) Pre-Operation

Read entire manual, especially the important safety instructions.

1.) Check hoses, fittings, wand, trigger gun and fuel connections for signs of wear, cracks and looseness, and replace as required.

2.) Check and clean the nozzle orifice.

3.) Check and clean the water inlet screen and filter. (see Maintenance section).

4.) Check and maintain proper oil levels in the pump and engine (see Maintenance section).

III.) Attach High Pressure Hose

Attach the high pressure hose to the water outlet. See Machine Component Identification section for location of the water outlet

Your pressure washer hose is equipped with quick couplers. Simply pull the collar back and push the coupler onto the nipple. Make sure the collar slides over the ball bearings. Once the connection is made, pull on the hose to assure a positive connection.

1.) Make sure the water supply is clean. Debris can cause excess pump wear and reduce performance.

2.) An insufficient water supply will damage your pump. Make sure the water supply is steady and is 20% over the rated flow of your pump. Use a stopwatch to time how long it takes to fill a 5-gallon bucket with your garden hose. It should take less than 62 seconds.

3.) The water supply garden hose must have an inside diameter of at least 5/8”. If the hose is more than 100 ft. long, the diameter must be at least 3/4”.

4.) Always use a flexible rubber hose for your water supply. Do not use rigid piping.
