How to Start Your Engine

The best way to start your pressure washer for the first time is to follow these instructions step–by–step. This starting information also applies if have let the pressure washer sit idle for at least a day.

•Place the pressure washer in an area close enough to an outside water source that can flow at a rate of

3.9 gallons per minute or more.

•Make sure the unit is in a level position.

•Check that the high pressure hose is connected to the spray gun and to the pump. See “Preparing Pressure Washer for Use” on page 5.

•Connect the garden hose to the water inlet on the pressure washer pump and turn on the water.

CAUTION! Do Not run the pump without the water supply connected and turned on. You must follow this caution or the pump will be damaged.

•Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to relieve the air pressure caused by turning ON the water. Water will discharge from the spray gun in a thin stream. Hold the trigger until a steady stream of water appears. This will make it easier to pull start the engine. Release the trigger.

•Apply the safety latch to the spray gun trigger (Figure 8).
