3000 PSI Pressure Washer

PREPARING THE UNIT FOR STORAGE

Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and “freeze” pump action. If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more than 30 days, follow this procedure:

1.Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter into a pail of clean water while running pressure washer in low pressure mode. Flush for one to two minutes.

2.Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove high pressure and garden hoses. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.

3.Empty the pump of liquids by pulling the engine recoil handle about 6 times.This should remove most of the liquid in the pump.

4.Use pump saver to prevent corrosion build up and freezing of pump.

5.Store unit in a clean, dry area.

Protecting the Pump

To protect the pump from damage caused by mineral deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver to treat pump.This prevents freeze damage and lubricates pistons and seals.

NOTE: PumpSaver is available as an optional accessory. It is not included with the pressure washer. Contact the nearest authorized service center to purchase PumpSaver.

CAUTION

You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.

•Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and render your unit inoperable.

•Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.

CAUTION

Read and follow all cautions and warnings on the PumpSaver can label.

• Always wear eye protection when using PumpSaver.

CAUTION

PumpSaver will drip from pump after treatment and will stain wood and concrete.
