Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

1.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Pressure Washer. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged electrical wiring, damaged High Pressure Hose, damaged accessories, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use damaged equipment.

2.To clean, remove excess water from the Pump by tipping the unit to drain any remaining water from the inlet and outlet fittings. Drain the Detergent Dispenser and flush with running water. Use only a clean cloth and mild detergent to clean the body of the Pressure Washer. Do not use solvents.

Do not immerse any part of the tool in liquid. Dry off

any remaining water on all parts and fittings. Remove mineral deposits from the nozzle using a thin, stiff wire. The more minerals that are dissolved in the water (the harder the water) you use, the more often mineral buildup will need to be cleaned out from inside nozzle.

3.In areas that have hard water (water rich in minerals such as calcium) the unit will need to be cleaned periodically to remove calcium buildup which can clog the system. To clean off calcium buildup: Unplug the unit and lay it face down. Fill the body at the water inlet fitting with calcium remover and allow at least 5 hrs for calcium deposit to break down. Rinse and dry.

4.STORAGE: When storing, empty the Pressure Washer of water. Frost will damage the Pressure Washer if the unit contains water. Store the Pressure Washer in a dry, frost-free room. Flush the unit with automotive antifreeze prior to long-term storage. Dispose of antifreeze according to local ordinances.

5.WARNING! If the supply cord or GFCI unit of this power tool is damaged, it must be replaced only by a qualified service technician.
