ASSEMBLY

CAUTION:

Do not run the pressure washer pump without water sup- ply connected and turned on, as this may damage the high pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely unwind the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the hose is not being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other objects that may lessen or prevent water flow to the pressure washer.

CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE TO THE PRESSURE WASHER

See Figure 8.

CAUTION:

Always observe all local regulations when connnecting hoses to the water main. Some areas have restrictions against connecting directly to public drinking water sup- ply to prevent the feedback of chemicals into the drinking water supply. Direct connection through a receiver tank or backflow preventer is usually permitted.

The water supply must come from a water main. NEVER use hot water or water from pools, lakes, etc. Before connecting the garden hose to the pressure washer:

nRun water through the hose for 30 seconds to clean any debris from the hose.

nInspect the screen in the water intake.

nIf the screen is damaged, do not use the machine until the screen has been replaced.

nIf the screen is dirty, clean it before connecting the garden hose to the machine.

To connect the garden hose to the machine:

nUncoil the garden hose.

NOTE: There must be a minimum of 10 feet of unrestricted hose between the pressure washer intake and the hose faucet or shut off valve (such as a “Y” shut off connector).

nWith the hose faucet turned completely off, attach the end of the garden hose to the water intake. Tighten by hand.

ATTACHING INJECTION HOSE

See Figures 9 - 10.

Before detergent can be used with this machine, the injection hose must be attached.

nPush the open end of the clear injection hose securely over the fitting on the back of the unit.

NOTE: Keep injection hose away from hot surfaces.

nOpen the cap on the detergent tank.

nFrom the top of the cap, slide the injection hose through the hole in the cap.

nPush the injection hose filter onto the end of the injec- tion hose and pull enough hose through the cap so the injection hose filter will rest at the bottom of the detergent tank.

nClose the cap on the detergent tank.
