Connect the garden hose tightly to water inlet opening on the pressure washer pump and turn the water ON,

tBe sure fuei shut-off valve is open.

iSet RUN/STOP switch to RUN position.

oSqueeze trigger on pressure washer wand to relieve the 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.

Engage safety latch on spray gun to the ON position.

This disables the trigger so you cannot inadvertently actuate a high pressure spray.

ON

OFF

Press the primer bulb three (3) times.

-%,

Turn pressure control knob counterclockwise, two turns from maximum pressure.

Grasp the starter grip and pull slowly until you feet resistance. Then pull rapidly three (3) times,

if engine fails to start, repeat the priming process and press the trigger to relieve water pressure then pull starter handle slowly until you again feel resistance and then pull rapidly up to three (3) times.

NOTE: A small amount of water will squirt out when you release the pressure.

°Allow engine to run for two minutes before using, IMPORTANT: An internal thermal relief valve has a maxi-

mum temperature setting of !40°F (60°0). If you run the

.pump for 5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, 1/2 to 1 ounce of water is released through the valve to cool the unit. The small amount of water will drip out the bottom of pump.

LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUTDOWN SYSTEM

The engine is equipped with a low oil pressure sensor that shuts down the engine automatically when the oil pressure drops below 6 psi. If the engine shuts down by itself and the fuel tank has enough gasoline, check engine oil level.

• r====:

INITIAL STARTUP

A delay built in the tow oil shutdown system allows oil pressure to build during starting. The delay allbws the engine to run for about 10 seconds before sensing oil pressure.

SENSING LOW PRESSURE

If the system senses low oi! pressure during operation, -the engine shuts down. As the system shuts down, the tow oil light comes ON. However, once the engine has stopped rotating, this lig5t will go OFF.

RESTARTING

If you try to restart the engine within 10 seconds after it shuts down, the engine may NOT start. The system needs 5 to 10 seconds to reset.

If you do restart the engine after such a shutdown and have not corrected the low oil pressure, the engine runs for about t0 seconds as described above and then stops.

SIPHONING

We recommend that you DO NOT siphon your water sup- ply. Connect only to household water suppfy.

TIPS

Never use the garden hose inlet to siphon detergent or

wax,

If you have the spray nozzle too far away, the cleaning will not be as effective.
