Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of time. Sediments of minerals can deposit on pump parts and "freeze" pump action. Follow these procedures after every use:

Flush the chemical system by selecting the System Rinse tank and run the Pressure Washer with

nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush for one minute or until the chemical is cleared from the system.

Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove all hoses.

LONG TERM STORAGE

If you do not plan to use the Pressure Washer for more than 30 days, you must prepare the engine for long term storage.

It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank dudng storage. Also, ex_padencoindicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids

dudng storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
