IMPORTANT: Do Not siphon standing water for the water supply. Use ONLY cold water (less than 100°F).

Connect the garden hose to the water inlet. Tighten by hand (Figure 7).

CAUTION! There MUST be at least ten feet of unrestricted garden hose between the pressure washer inlet and any flow shut off device, such as a ‘Y’ shut-off connector or other convenience-type water shut-off valve.
