HOW TO USE YOUR

PRESSURE WASHER

If you have any problems operating your pressure

washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at

1-800-2 0-1408.

How to Start Your Engine

The best way to start your engine-powere pressure

washer for the first time is to follow these instructions

step-by-step. This starting information also applies

whenever you start the engine after you have let the

pressure washer sit i le for at least a ay.

 This pressure washer requires a water source that

flows at least 2.5 gallons per minute. Do not attempt

to siphon water from a non-pressurize container.

Place the pressure washer close enough to an

outsi e water source so that no more than 50' of

gar en hose is nee e .

 Check that the high pressure hose is tightly

connecte to the spray gun an to the pump. See

ASSEMBLY section for illustrations.

 Connect the gar en hose to water inlet on the

pressure washer pump an turn the water valve on

all the way.

IMPORTANT: Do not run pump without the water

supply connecte an turne on. You must follow this

caution or the pump will be amage .

 Place the Run/Stop switch to Run.

 Press the primer bulb 3 times, waiting 2 secon s

between each push

Note: For a warm engine, o not prime.

 Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to relieve air

pressure cause by turning on the water. Water will

spew out the gun in a thin stream. Continue to hol

trigger until you have a stea y stream of water an

no air remains.This will make it easier to pull start

the engine. Release the trigger.

 Apply the safety latch to the spray gun trigger

(Figure 11).

 Grasp rope han le an pull slowly until you feel

some resistance. Then pull cor rapi ly to

overcome compression, prevent kickback an start

the engine. Let rope return to starter slowly.

If after 3 pulls the engine fails to start, isengage the

spray gun safety latch, squeeze the trigger to relieve

water pressure, re-engage the spray gun safety latch

an pull the recoil starter han le rapi ly (Max. 3

pulls).

How to Stop Your Pressure

Washer

 Move the Run/Stop switch to Stop.

 Simply shutting off the engine will not release

pressure in the system. Squeeze trigger on the

spray gun to relieve pressure in the hose.

Note: A small amount of water will squirt out when

you release the pressure.
