attaching the wheel assembly

See Figure 2.

To attach the wheels to the pressure washer base:

Locate the axle, axle sleeves, hitch pins, washers, and wheels. Remove the hitch pin from the axle.

Slide the axle through the axle sleeve, then slide both through the hole in the center of the wheel.

Slide the washer onto the axle.

Lift the machine and slide the axle into the wheel mount- ing hole in the machine base as shown.

Push the hitch pin into the hole on the end of the axle to secure the wheel assembly.

NOTE: The hitch pin should be pushed into the axle until the center of the pin rests on top of the axle.

Repeat with the second wheel.

INSTALLing the handle

See Figure 3.

To install the handle:

Push and hold the button on the handle as you slide the handle into the holes in the frame.

NOTE: Before use, pull the handle up until the lock button snaps through the locking slot to secure the handle in place.

adding LUBRICANT to the engine

See Figure 4.

NOTE: This machine has been shipped with approximately 2 oz. of lubricant in the engine from testing. You must add lubricant to the engine before starting it the first time.

CAUTION:

Any attempt to start the engine without adding lubricant will result in engine failure.

Place pressure washer on a flat, level surface.

Unscrew the oil cap / dipstick by turning counter- clockwise.

Using 4-stroke engine lubricant (SAE 30 or SAE 10W30), fill to the upper level of the oil filter neck (18 oz., 4-cycle engine lubricant provided).

Replace the oil cap / dipstick and securely tighten.

NOTE: This engine has a total lubricant capacity of 20 oz. (.6 liters).

adding gasoline to THE FUEL tank

See Figure 5.

WARNING:

Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and prop- erty damage, handle gasoline with care. Keep away from ignition sources, handle outdoors only, do not smoke while adding fuel, and wipe up spills immediately.

When adding gas to the pressure washer, make sure the unit is sitting on a flat, level surface. If the engine is hot, let the pressure washer cool before adding gas. Always fill the fuel tank outdoors with the machine turned off.

Before removing the fuel cap, clean the area around it. Remove the fuel cap.

Insert a clean funnel into the fuel tank then slowly pour gasoline into the tank. Fill tank to approximately 1-1/2 in. below the top of the tank neck (this allows for fuel expansion).

Replace fuel cap and tighten until the cap “clicks”.

Clean up any spills before starting the engine.

NOTE: Always use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. Never use old, stale, or contaminated gasoline, and do not use an oil/gas mixture. Do not allow dirt or water into the fuel tank.
