Operation
Important Guidelines
•Do leave the engine running without spraying water. If it is left on for more than three minutes without discharging the high pressure water, damage could occur to the internal pump and high pressure hose.
•The water hose should provide at least 3 gallons per minute for the Pressure Washer to operate at maximum performance. Use only 3/4 (dia.) inch water hose supply. A smaller diameter hose limits the amount of water to the pump. Test by filling a five gallon bucket with the water supply hose. It should fill the bucket in three minutes or less.
•Always use clean water through the Pressure Washer. Debris in dirty water could damage the internal pump.
Setup
1.Fill with engine oil. Never run this Pressure Washer with low or no oil.
With Pressure Washer on a flat surface, carefully unscrew the Oil Cap Dip Stick (A). Add oil. Carefully screw in the Oil Cap Dip Stick (A). If the (plastic) threads on the Oil Cap do not seat correctly with the (metal) threads on the oil fill neck, the plastic threads can be stripped. Refer to the Robin® Engine Maintenance Manual for the recommended oil weight.
2.Fill the gasoline tank (B) with unleaded gasoline. See engine photo on the next page.
Do not use leaded gasoline. Be careful not to spill any gasoline on the engine or pavement. Wash down any spilled gasoline.
3.Connect the 3/4 inch garden hose from a cold water garden faucet to the Water Inlet Connector (8A). Tighten securely. See photo to right. Turn on the water faucet valve all the way (counterclockwise).
