Operation

1. Surface Preparation

The following cleaning procedure will help you organize your cleaning task and ensures that you will achieve the best results in the shortest amount of time.. Remember to use the spraying / cleaning techniques mentioned in the following section..

If water has frozen in the pressure washer, thaw the pressure washer in a

warm room before starting. DO NOT pour hot water on or into the pump; internal parts will be damaged.

1..Check engine oil levels.. Add oil as necessary..

2..Check fuel level.. Add unleaded gasoline (rated 86 octane or higher) as required..

Before starting a pressure washer cleaning job, prepare the surface you intend to clean.. Clear furniture from the area and make sure that all windows and doors are closed tightly.. Also, protect all plants and trees near the cleaning area with a drop cloth.. A covering ensures that your plants won’t be sprayed by the detergents..

2. Start Up

do NOT refuel a hot engine. Refueling a hot engine could cause a fire. Use

only fresh, clean regular or unleaded gasoline. Close the fuel shutoff valve during refueling.

3..Attach a garden hose to the inlet side of the pump and connect it to the water supply.. Use a hose with an internal diameter (I..D..) of 5/8 inch (1..58 cm) and a length of 50 ft.. (15 m) or less..

ALWAYS use the following start up procedure to ensure that the unit is started safely and properly..

some local plumbing codes require backflow prevention when connecting to

a fresh water supply. Install a backflow preventer upstream from the pump if necessary.
