GENERAL MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS

The pressure washer warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence.To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the pressure washer as instructed in this manual.

NOTE: Should you have questions about replacing components on your Snapper pressure washer, please call 1-800-317-7833for assistance.

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your pressure washer.

All maintenance in this manual and the engine operator’s manual should be made at least once each season.

MAINTENANCE

Check and Clean Inlet Screen

Examine the screen on the water inlet. Clean it if the screen is clogged or replace it if screen is damaged.

Check High Pressure Hose

The high pressure hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, or abuse. Inspect the hose each time before using it. Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of cover, damage or movement of couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately.

WARNING

The high pressure stream of water that this equipment produces can pierce skin and its underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation.

NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace it.

Replacement hose rating MUST exceed maximum pressure rating of unit.

Check Detergent Siphoning Tube

Examine the filter on the detergent tube and clean if clogged.The tube should fit tightly on the barbed fitting. Examine the tube for leaks or tears. Replace the filter or tube if either is damaged.

Check Gun and Nozzle Extension

Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and make sure it is secure.Test the trigger by squeezing it and making sure it “springs back” into place when you release it. Put the trigger lock in the ON position and test the trigger. You should not be able to squeeze the trigger.

Check In-Line Filter

Refer to Figure 16 and service the in-line filter if it becomes clogged, as follows:
