MAINTENANCE

Check and Clean Inlet Screen

Examine the screen on the water inlet. Clean it if the screen is clogged or replace it if screen is damaged.

Check High Pressure Hose

The high pressure hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, or abuse. Inspect the hose each time before using it. Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of cover, damage or movement of couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately.

WARNING

The high pressure stream of water that this equipment produces can pierce skin and its underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and possible amputation.

•NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace it.

•Replacement hose rating MUST exceed maximum pressure rating of unit.

Check Chemical Injection Hose

Examine the filter on the detergent tube and clean if clogged.The tube should fit tightly on the barbed fitting. Examine the tube for leaks or tears. Replace the filter or tube if either is damaged.

Check Gun and Nozzle Extension

Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and make sure it is secure.Test the trigger by pressing it and making sure it “springs back” into place when you release it. Put the trigger lock in the ON position and test the trigger. You should not be able to press the trigger.

Before Each Use

•Check engine oil level.

•Check water inlet screen for damage.

•Check in-line filter for damage.

•Check high pressure hose for leaks.

•Check chemical injection hose and filter for damage.

•Check spray gun and nozzle extension for leaks.

•Rinse out garden hose to flush out debris.
