•When the water supply is steady and constant, engage the safety latch and refasten the nozzle extension.

Nozzle Maintenance

A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun trigger may be caused by excessive pump pressure. The principal cause of excessive pump pressure is a nozzle clogged or restricted with foreign materials, such as dirt, etc. To correct the problem, immediately clean the nozzle using the tools included with your pressure washer and follow these instructions:

1.Shut off the engine and turn off the water supply.

2.Remove the nozzle from the end of the nozzle extension. Separate the nozzle extension from the spray gun. Twist the nozzle clockwise to the stream position. Using the supplied 2mm (5/64) allen wrench, remove the nozzle from the end of the nozzle extension.

3.Remove the in-line filter from the other end of the nozzle extension.

4.Use the wire included in the kit (or a small paper clip) to free any foreign material clogging or restricting the nozzle.

Insert wire into nozzle and turn back and forth to clear obstruction.

5.Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by

back flushing water through the nozzle extension. Back flush between 30 to 60 seconds. Turn the

adjustable nozzle extension to stream spray and move the nozzle from low to high while flushing.

O-Ring Maintenance

Your pressure washer uses o-rings to keep hose and spray gun connections tight and leak-free. Through the normal operation of your unit, these o-rings may become worn or damaged.

Provided with your pressure washer is an O-Ring Maintenance Kit which includes replacement o-rings, rubber washer and water inlet filter. Refer to the instruction sheet provided in the kit to service your unit'so-rings. Note that not all of the parts in the kit will be used on your unit.

Parts in the O-Ring Kit include:

1 o-ring, yellow, (p/n B2264) for the end of the high pressure hose.

NOTE: The above two o-rings are close in size. Please match carefully to assure proper o-ring usage.

•1 rubber washer, (p/n B2385) for the inside of the garden hose connector.

extension. Do Not overtighten the nozzle with the allen wrench.
