INSTALLATION & PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS
Attire
Proper attire is essential to your safety. It is advised to utilize whatever means necessary to protect eyes, ears, and skin. Additional safety attire (such as respiratory mask) may be required when using detergent cleaning agents with this washer.
Setup
This unit should only be placed on a level surface to en- sure proper lubrication for the engine and water pump while operating.
Do not use unit in an area:
•with insufficient ventilation.
•where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
•where flammable gas vapors may be present.
Be certain to block the wheels to prevent the unit from moving while operating.
Do not allow the unit to be exposed to rain, snow or freezing temperatures. If any part of the unit becomes frozen, excessive pressure may build up in the unit which could cause it to burst resulting in possible seri- ous injury to the operator or bystanders.
Before initial use, ensure the oil cap/dipstick is inserted into the pump. Because of varying shipping require- ments, the pump may need to be shipped with an oil travel plug instead of the dipstick in the pump. If your pump has been shipped with an oil travel plug, you will need to remove it and replace the plug with the oil dipstick provided with the unit.
Once properly installed, check the oil sight glass on the pump crankcase. Be certain the oil level is in the center of the sight glass before each use. If the level appears to be low, add pump oil and fill only to the center of the oil sight glass. (Refer to the parts listing for the correct pump oil) do not overfill!
