MAINTENANCE

Risk of burn hazard. When

performing maintenance, you may be exposed to hot surfaces, water pressure or moving parts that can cause serious injury or death.

Risk of fire hazard. Always disconnect,

spark plug wire, let the engine cool and release all water pressure before performing any maintenance or repair. The engine contains flammable fuel. Do not smoke

or work near open flames while performing maintenance.

To ensure efficient operation and longer life of your pressure washer, a routine maintenance schedule should be prepared and followed. If the pressure washer is used in unusual conditions, such as high-temperatures or dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance checks will be required.
