MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK, ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PLUG FROM THE ELECTRICAL

SUPPLY BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE IS STARTED.

MAINTENANCE

1.WATER SCREEN:

Inspect the water screen before attaching water supply. Clean water screen if dirty. (Quick Connect Coupler)

2.NOZZLE CLOGGED:

A clogged nozzle will cause a distorted spray pattern and/or low pressure output.

1.Unplug power supply, pull trigger on gun handle to relieve pressure, remove wand assembly from gun assembly.

2.Clean the nozzle with the nozzle cleaning tool.

3.Flush wand assembly backwards with water or compressed air.

4.If problems still exist, repeat steps 1-3.

3.LUBRICATION:

No lubrication is required for this pump.

HIGH PRESSURE HOSE: Damaged high pressure hoses can burst which can cause a potentially hazardous situation. High pressure hoses should not be kinked, crushed, twisted, or damaged in any way. Replace high pressure hose should this occur.

WINTER STORAGE

This pressure washer should be stored in such a way to protect it from freezing. Do not store this unit outdoors or in an area where temperatures will fall below 32ºF. This can cause extensive damage to this unit. Drain as much water as possible.

If unit has to be stored under freezing conditions a non-toxic R.V. anti-freeze can be used to protect from freezing.

Add anti-freeze as follows:

1.Be sure the unit is turned off, the water supply hose is disconnected, and the pressure has been relieved from the gun.

2.Remove gun/hose assembly from the pressure washer.

3.Tip the unit on end with the water inlet fitting pointing upward, and start the motor.

4.Quickly pour approx. 1/4 cup of non-toxic R.V. anti- freeze down the plastic fitting where the water hose attaches while the motor is running (See Figure 1 below). Let unit run for a few seconds.

5.Turn the unit off .
