AFTER EACH USE

Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and "freeze" pump action. Follow these procedures after every use:

1.Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter into a pail of clean water while running pressure washer in low pressure mode (adjustable nozzle in

the forward position). Flush for one to two minutes.

2.Shut off engine, let it cool, then remove all hoses.

3.Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.

4.Empty pump of all liquids by pulling recoil handle about 6 times. This should remove most liquid in pump.

5.If storing for more than 30 days see "Long Term Storage" on next page.

6.Coil high pressure hose and inspect it for damage. Cuts in hose or fraying could result in leaks and loss of pressure. Should any damage be found, replace hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a damaged hose. Replace hose with genuine Sears part.

7.Disconnect hose from spray gun and high pressure outlet on pump. Drain water from hose,

gun, and nozzle extension. Use a rag to wipe off hose.

8.Coil hose and properly hang it on hook provided.

9.Reconnect spark plug wire to spark plug.

10.Store unit in a clean, dry area.

WARNING

WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK

Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes dryers or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition source because they can ignite fuel vapors.

WHEN DRAINING FUEL

Turn pressure washer OFF and let it cool at least 2 minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve pressure in tank.

Drain fuel tank outdoors.

Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and other ignition sources.

DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.

WINTER STORAGE

CAUTION

•Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and render your unit inoperable.

•Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.

To protect the unit from freezing temperatures:

1.Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing filter into a pail of clean water while running pressure washer in low pressure mode (adjustable nozzle in forward position). Flush for one to two minutes.

2.Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil handle about 6 times. This should remove most liquid in pump.

3.Use pump saver, available at Sears retail item 71-74403, to treat pump. This minimizes freeze damage and lubricates pistons and seals.

4.If pump saver is not available, connect a 3-foot section of garden hose to water inlet adapter. Pour

RV-antifreeze (antifreeze without alcohol) into hose. Pull recoil handle twice. Disconnect 3-foot

hose.
