WARNING: Make sure the nozzle is correctly inserted. The nozzle may become a projectile if not inserted correctly. Do not attempt to use different types of nozzles that may not fit the coupler.

VI.) Turn the pump switch ON.

1.Make sure the hose is not kinked. A kinked hose will provide insufficient water supply to the pump and will reduce its life. Make sure the hose remains unkinked after moving the pressure washer.

VII.) For Hot Water

1.If HOT water is desired, make sure there is fuel in the fuel tank, turn the heat switch ON, and adjust the thermostat to the desired temperature. The burner will fire when the trigger is squeezed. You may need to initially adjust your burner for peak performance. See the “Oil Burner” section under INSTALLATION. When the trigger is released or the temperature setting is reached, the burner will automatically turn off.

IMPORTANT: Do not run the machine in hot mode without any fuel in the fuel tank. The fuel pump will be damaged if it is run dry.

To Clean

WARNING: Wear eye, ear, hand, foot and skin protection at all times while operating this pressure washer.

DANGER: Do not point the spray wand at yourself or at any person. Bodily injury may result from water under high pressure.

CAUTION: Be careful on painted or delicate surfaces. The pressure may damage the surface if the nozzle is too close.

IMPORTANT: Your spray gun is equipped with a built-in trigger safety latch to guard against accidental trigger actuation and potentially dangerous high pressure spray. Rotate the safety latch to the locked position when not spraying.

NOTE: Your pressure washer is equipped with a low pressure chemical injector. You do not need to use chemicals for every job, however, the proper chemical used for the proper application can speed up cleaning jobs tremendously.

WARNING: Only use North Star pressure washer chemicals or chemicals specifically formulated for pressure washers. Follow the chemical manufacturer’s recommendations. Understand all safety precautions and first aid for all chemicals.

1.Press the braided chemical hose over the chemical injector on the pump and submerge the suction strainer connected to the braided chemical hose into the chemical solution.
