in the gas tank indoors in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas where fumes may reach an open flame, a spark, or pilot light.

WINTER STORAGE

CAUTION

and render your unit inoperable.

Freeze damage is not covered Under warrar4y.

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.

4.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.

LONG TERM STORAGE

If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more than 30 days, you must prepare the engine for long term storage.

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcehol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.

Protect Fuel System

Draining Fuel Tank:

prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing possible malfunction of engine.
