OPERATION
MOVING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 17.
Loosen the pivot knob located halfway down the spray wand storage tube.
Grasp the handle at the rear of the pressure washer. Turn the top section of the pressure washer until it is fully ex- tended as shown in figure 17. Retighten the pivot knob.
Grasp the moving handle and lift the machine off the resting foot. Roll the machine to the desired position.
STORING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 17.
�����Allow 30 minutes of “cool down” time before placing the storage handle in the “store” position. Store machine in a dry, covered area where the weather can’t damage it.
WASHING WITH DETERGENT
See Figure 18.
Use only detergents designed for pressure washers; house- hold detergents can damage the pump. Many detergents require mixing prior to use. Prepare cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle.
Place the injection hose in the bottom of the detergent bucket.
�Carefully pour the cleaning solution into the bucket taking care not to splash the solution or place the bottle in the bucket.
Install the black nozzle on the spray wand.
Spray the detergent on a dry surface using long, even, overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow the detergent to dry on the surface.
Before shutting off the engine:
Place the injection hose in a bucket of clean water.
Flush for 1 - 2 minutes (spray clear water through the spray wand).
Shut off the engine.
NOTE: Shutting OFF ( O ) the engine will not relieve pressure in the system. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
