Pressure Washer Operation

1.IMPORTANT! NEVER allow the Pressure Washer to sit idle with the Engine running for longer than two minutes. The unit will build up heat when it is on standby mode.

2.Turn on the water supply, press in on the Safety on the Spray Gun (6) and squeeze its Trigger until water flows out of the Gun without sputtering.

This removes air from the system and allows the unit to properly perform.

Failure to follow this procedure can damage the Pump.

3.Hold the Spray Gun (6) firmly with both hands. Point the Nozzle (9) in a safe direction. Then, disengage the Safety and squeeze the Trigger. Make sure to turn off the Engine whenever the Spray Gun is not in use. Clean the area, following the tips contained in the “Operating Tips” section.

4.When finished spraying, press in to fully engage the Safety on the Spray Gun (6). Turn off the Engine, and turn off the water supply. WARNING!

Do not disconnect the High Pres- sure Hose (8) or water inlet hose until all pressure is discharged safely.

5.IMPORTANT! When turning off the unit after use, high pressure will remain inside the unit’s High Pressure Hose (8), and the water inlet hose. Point the Spray Gun (6) in a safe direction and hold the Trigger down for several seconds or until water stops flowing from the Spray

Gun. The High Pressure Hose and water inlet hose can be disconnected after the pressure is released.

6.Store the Pressure Washer and all accessories in accordance with the directions in the “Storage” section of this manual.

IF ANY UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS ARISE, PLEASE REFER TO THE “TROU- BLESHOOTING” SECTION AT THE END OF THIS MANUAL.

OPERATING TIPS

Adjusting The Spray Pattern

1.You have a choice of four different color-coded Nozzles (9) giving you different spray patterns.

2.0° Nozzle (colored red): This Noz- zle delivers a pinpoint stream and is extremely powerful. It covers a very small area of cleaning. This Nozzle should only be used on a surface that can withstand this high pressure such as metal or concrete. Do not use on wood. Do not use to clean vehicles.
