WATER SUPPLY

1.Connect the water supply to the 3/4” female garden hose swivel on the water inlet port of the unit. Connect the other end of the hose to the pressurized water supply. The supply hose should have a 3/4” inside diameter (ID) and be no longer than 50 feet.

2.The water supply pressure must be a minimum of 20 pounds per square inch (PSI) and a maximum of 125 PSI. The flow rate must be at least 3 gallons per minute (GPM).

3.Use a water softener if there is high mineral content in the water of your area. High mineral content causes excessive scale build-up in the coil/heat exchanger.

4.Un-roll the hose reel and then connect one end of the high pressure discharge hose to the water- gun assembly.

Be sure all connections are securely tightened.
