Use clean, fresh, regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum of 85 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

If unleaded fuel is unavailable leaded fuel may be used.

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol) can attract mois- ture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Never use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel tank or perma- nent damage may occur.

Never start pressure washer without water source turned on

and connected to pressure washer. Failure to do so will cause pump damage.

To Start Your Pressure Washer

Remove gas cap.

Add unleaded gasoline, slowly, to fuel tank.

Do not overfill.

Connect garden hose to the water inlet on the pressure washer. Tighten by turning counterclock- wise.

PUMP

DISCHARGE

Connect high pressure hose to discharge on pump.

Connect the garden hose to the water spout and turn water supply on.

Squeeze trigger on pressure washer wand to relieve air pressure caused by turning on the water. Water will spew out of the gun in a thin stream. This will make it easier to start the engine.

Engage the safety latch on the spray gun. This locks the trigger in place and keeps you from accidentally spraying a high pressure stream.

SAFETY

LATCH

On the engine there is a choke/run lever. Place lever to the choke position.

On the engine there is a throttle control lever. Place throttle to the rabbit position. Always start engine with throttle in the rabbit (high speed) position.

CHOKE

THROTTLE

CONTROL (In Rabbit position)

Grasp the starter grip and pull slowly until resis- tance is felt, then pull firmly to start engine.

NOTE: If engine does not start right away, squeeze the trigger on the gun to relieve air pressure caused by turning on the water. Water will spew out of the gun in a thin stream. This will make it easier to pull start the engine. If more than five pulls, place choke lever back to run position.

When engine starts, gradually move choke lever to RUN position.

For hot engine restarts, make sure throttle is in the rabbit (high speed) position and the choke lever is in the RUN position.

Grasp the starter grip and pull slowly until resistance is felt, then pull firmly to start engine.

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.
