IMPORTANT: You must assemble the nozzle extension to the spray gun and attach all hoses before you start the engine. Starting engine without all hoses connected and water supplied will damage the pump.

•Uncoil high pressure hose and attach quick connect end of hose to the base of the spray gun (Figure 5). Pull down on the collar of the quick connect, slide onto the spray gun and let go of collar. Tug on hose to be sure of a tight connection.

•Before you connect your garden hose to the water inlet, inspect the inlet screen (Figure 6). Clean the screen if it contains debris, replace if damaged. DO NOT RUN THE PRESSURE WASHER IF THE SCREEN IS DAMAGED.

•Run water through your garden hose for 30 seconds to clean out any debris. Turn off water.

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 6).

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. Damage to pressure washer resulting from disregarding this warning will not be covered by the warranty.

•Turn ON the water.

•Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun until you have a steady stream of water. This purges the pump of air and impurities.

CAUTION! Before starting the pressure washer, be sure you are wearing adequate eye protection.
