General Recommendations

Regular maintenance will improve the performance and extend the life of the pressure washer. See any qualified dealer for service.

The pressure washer’s warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the pressure washer as instructed in this manual, including proper storage as detailed in Winter Storage and Long Term Storage.

NOTE: Should you have questions about replacing components on your pressure washer, please call

(800)743-4115for assistance.

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your pressure washer.

All service and adjustments should be made at least once each season. Follow the requirements in the Maintenance Schedule chart above.

NOTE: Once a year you should clean or replace the spark plug, clean or replace the air filter, and check the spray gun and nozzle extension assembly for wear. A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run better and last longer.
