MAINTENANCE

When performing maintenance, you may be exposed to hot surfaces, water pressure, or moving parts that can cause

serious injury or death!

Before performing any maintenance or repair, unplug unit from power source, let motor cool and release all water pressure.

To ensure efficient operation and longer life of your pressure washer, a routine maintenance schedule should be prepared and followed. If the pressure washer is used in unusual conditions, such as high-temperatures or dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance checks will be required.

Any maintenance or repair not listed should be performed by an Authorized Warranty Service Center.
