THROTTLE

CONTROL

Simply shutting OFF engine will not release pres- sure in the system. After engine has stopped, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun for about 3 seconds to relieve pressure. Spray stream will decrease in length.

IMPORTANT: This unit is equipped with a thermal relief valve. If unit is allowed to run for several minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, several drops of water may be released through this valve to cool the unit. This small amount of water will drip from the bottom of the pump.

Before Starting The Engine

To operate the engine you will need to do the following.

Always check engine oil level before every start. Running engine

low of oil or out of oil could result in serious damage.

Engine Oil

Your unit has been shipped without oil in the engine. A bottle of SAE 30 weight oil is included in the carton. Remove oil dip stick located on top of the engine. Oil capacity is about 20 ounces of oil. The oil dip stick is clearly marked with a line that tells you when unit has enough oil. To check oil, place dipstick into oil fill. Tighten dipstick then remove. Do not fill above this point. Pour slowly.

NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use a high quality detergent oil classified “For Service SF, SG, SH”, rated SAE 30 weight. Use no special additives.

Select the oil’s viscosity grade according to your ex- pected operating temperatures.

colder <——-----———40°F——————> warmer

Synthetic 5W-30

l SAE 30

Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption when used above 40°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible damage from running low on oil. Oil sump capacity is 20 ounces.

Gasoline

Your pressure washer engine is 4 cycle. Use unleaded fuel only.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always allow room for fuel expansion.

Never fill fuel tank indoors. To avoid explosion and injury, never fill

fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke or have open flame when filling fuel tank.
