OPERATION
GENERAL CLEANING TIPS
1.Apply the detergent so that it thoroughly covers the cleaning surface. Apply the detergent from bottom to top to prevent the detergent from sliding down and streaking. Wait a couple of minutes for the detergent to break down the dirt and grime. Use a brush to lightly scrub heavily soiled areas. NEVER allow the detergent to dry on the cleaning surface.
2.Replace black 65° quick connect tip with another color tip.
NEVER replace quick connect tip
! WARNING when gun is triggered.
3. After using detergents, flush the suction system
by placing the detergent suction tube into a bucket of clean water.
5. Cleaning Power
The easiest way to regulate the cleaning power of your pressure washer is by changing the distance from the surface you are cleaning. Begin spraying with a wide fan pattern while standing several feet from the surface. Slowly move closer to the object you are cleaning, adjusting the spray pattern as necessary, until you find the most effective cleaning technique.
NOTE: Some units also may have a pressure adjustment knob on the pump that can adjust the pressure (models 9032PW and 1340PW).
6. Final Rinse
The final rinse should start at the bottom and work upward. Make sure that you thoroughly rinse the surface and that you remove all detergent.
7. Shutdown
1.Be sure all detergent is flushed from system.
2.Turn the engine OFF.
3 Turn the water supply OFF.
4.After the engine and water supply are turned OFF, trigger the gun to depressurize the system.
NEVER turn the water supply
NOTICE off before turning the engine/motor off. Serious damage could occur to the pump and/or engine/motor.
NEVER disconnect the high pressure discharge hose from
the machine while the system is pressurized. To depressurize, turn engine/motor off, turn water supply off and squeeze gun trigger
PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE
To reduce the risk of bodily injury or property damage, ALWAYS follow this procedure whenever spraying is stopped, when work is completed, and before checking or repairing any part of the system.
1.Engage the trigger safety latch.
2.Turn the unit off.
3.Shut off the water supply.

5.
6.Before overnight storage, long term storage, or transporting unit, disconnect the water supply and turn off the fuel supply valve.
5.After each use, when engine has cooled, wipe all surfaces of the pressure washer with a clean, damp cloth.

8. Storage
LONG TERM STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS (MORE THAN 30 DAYS IN STORAGE)
1.Remove fuel from the tank and run the pressure washer in a normal operating mode until the engine stops from a lack of fuel. Normal operating mode means actually spraying water from the gun while the engine is running.
Alternate method – Add fuel stabilizer to gas in the tank and run in normal operating mode for at least five minutes.
2.Stop the engine, turn off the water supply, and trigger the gun to release pressure in the high- pressure hose.
