BEFORE EACH USE

The warranty of the high pressure washer does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, operator must maintain high pressure washer as instructedin this manual.

Some adjustments will need to be made periodically to properly maintain your high pressure washer.

All adjustments in the Service and Adjustments sec- tion of this manual should be made at least once each season.

oOnce a year you should clean or replace the spark plug and clean or replace the air filter and check the gun and wand assembly for wear. A new spark plug and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run better and last longer.

tor. Clean if it is clogged or replace if it is torn.

Check High Pressure Hose: High pressure hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking, abuse. Inspect hose each time before using it. Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of cover, or damage or move- ment of couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace hose immediately.

Check Detergent Hose: Examine the filter on the detergent hose and clean if clogged. Hose should fit tightly on barbed fitting. Examine hose for leaks or tears. Replace the filter or hose if either is damaged.

A DANGER: Water spraying from a leak is capable of injecting material into skin. NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace with hose that meets minimum pressure rating of your pressure washer.

Check Gun and Wand: Examine hose connection to gun and make sure it is secure. Test trigger by press- ing it and making sure it springs back into place when you release it. Put safety latch in UP position and test trigger. You should not be able to press trigger.
