When adding gas to the pressure washer, make sure the unit is sitting on a flat, level surface and that the engine is not hot. If the engine is hot, let the pressure washer cool before adding gas. Always fill the fuel tank outdoors.

nInsert a clean funnel into the fuel tank.

nSlowly pour gasoline into the fuel tank (always use the fuel filter screen when filling the fuel tank). Wipe any spilled fuel off the machine before starting.

NOTE: Do not fill above the top of the fuel filter screen or the gas may overflow when it heats up later and expands.
