•Never turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or damage to pump will result.
• DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two |
| |
minutes at a time. Pump operates in bypass |
| |
mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. |
| |
When the temperature inside the pump rises |
| |
too high the thermal relief valve (T) will open |
| |
and release a gush of water in an effort to lower | T | |
the temperature inside the pump. The thermal | ||
|
relief valve will then close. If pump is left in bypass mode for more than two minutes internal components of the pump can be damaged.
Start-up Procedure
1.In a
2.Check engine oil level. Refer to the engine instruction manual for correct procedure.

9.Remove all air from the pump and high pressure hose by depress- ing trigger until a steady stream of water is present.
10.Start engine. Refer to the engine instruction manual for correct procedure.
Warning: Risk of unsafe operation. If engine does not start after two pulls, squeeze trigger of gun to relieve pump pressure. Pull starter cord slowly until resistance is felt. Then pull cord rapidly to avoid kickback and prevent hand or arm injury.
11. Depress trigger on gun to start water flow.
Warning: Risk of unsafe operation. Stand on a stable surface and grip gun/wand firmly with both hands. Expect the gun to kickback when triggered.
