1.Flush detergent siphoning tube/filter 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.Shut off engine and let it cool, then remove high pressure and garden hoses. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.

3.Place the spray gun, nozzle extension and high pressure hose in the accessory storage bag.

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

5.Use PumpSaver to prevent corrosion build up and freezing of pump.

6.Store unit in a clean, dry area.

NOTE: PumpSaver is available as an optional accessory. It is not included with the pressure washer. Contact the nearest authorized service center to purchase PumpSaver.

To use PumpSaver, make sure the pressure washer is turned off and disconnected from supply water. Read and follow all instructions and warnings given on the PumpSaver container.

CAUTION

You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.

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

•Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.

CAUTION

Read and follow all cautions and warnings on the PumpSaver can label.

• Always wear eye protection when using PumpSaver.

CAUTION

PumpSaver will drip from pump after treatment and will stain wood and concrete.
