Shutdown, Flushing and Storage

Operation

NOTE: An anti±freeze flush kit 802±327 is available to make flushing easier.

CAUTION

If water does freeze in the pressure washer, thaw it in a warm room before trying to start it. Do not pour hot water on or into the pump; it may crack the ceramic plungers!

1.If the pressure washer will be exposed to freezing temperatures, drain all water out of the pump. If it must be stored in freezing temperatures, flush the unit with a 50% anti±freeze solution. Relieve pressure. Flush the pressure washer before using it again to remove the anti±freeze.

2.Before long-term (overnight) storage or transport- ing of unit, disconnect the water supply, and turn off the fuel supply valve.

3.After each use, wipe all surfaces of the pressure washer with a clean, damp cloth.

4.Perform the appropriate maintenance. See mainte- nance chart.

Maintenance

Observing regular maintenance intervals helps ensure that you get maximum performance and life from the pressure washer.

There is a break-in period for the engine, pump and gear reducer (if used). After changing the oil in these components following their respective break-in periods, the interval between required changes is longer.

If the unit is operating in dusty conditions, these main- tenance checks should be made more often.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on the skin or injury from moving parts, always follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 5 before proceeding.
