back (open) position.

• High velocity fluid spray can cause

objects to break, propelling particles at

high speed.

• Light or unsecured objects can become

hazardous projectiles.

The powerful spray from your pressure washer is capable of causing

damage to surfaces such as wood, glass, automobile paint, auto

striping and trim, and delicate objects such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying,

check the item to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage

from the force of the spray. Avoid the use of the concentrated spray stream except for

very strong surfaces like concrete and steel.

Operating without flow of water will result in equipment damage. Operating the pressure

washer with water supply shutoff will void your warranty. You should never run this pres-

sure washer for more than 2 minutes without pulling the trigger to allow cool water to

enter the pump and the heated (recirculated) water to exit.

TO ADJUST PRESSURE

PRESSURE WASHER

TERMINOLOGY

PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit

of measure for water pressure. Also

used for air pressure, hydraulic

pressure, etc.

The pressure setting is preset at the

factory to achieve optimum pressure

and cleaning. If you need to lower the

pressure, it can be accomplished by

these methods.

1. Back away from the surface to be

cleaned. The further away you are,

the less the pressure will be on

the surface to be cleaned.

GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of

measure for the flow rate of water.

CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by

PSI.

2. Rotate the nozzle at the end of

the multi-adjustable spray wand

to widen the fan spray. The wider

fan spray will minimize the

pressure on the surface to be

cleaned.

Bypass Mode: In Bypass Mode, the

pump is recirculating water because

the trigger of the spray gun is not

pulled. If unit is left in bypass mode for

more than two (2) minutes, the water

temperature will rise to a dangerous

level and could damage internal

damage to pump due to these causes

will not be covered under warranty.

DO NOT allow your

unit to operate in

bypass mode for more than two

minutes at any time. Overheating of

pump can cause damage to pump.

Thermal Relief Valve: In an effort to

prevent extreme damage, pumps are

equipped with a thermal relief valve.

This valve will open when the

temperature inside the pump rises too

high. This valve will then release a

gush of water in an effort to lower the

temperature inside the pump.

Immediately after this occurs, the

valve will close. The thermal relief

valve is part of the pump and is not

visible to the user.

Chemical Injection System: Mixes

cleaners or cleaning solvents with the

water to improve cleaning

effectiveness.

Water Supply: All pressure washers

must have a source of water. The

minimum requirements for a water

supply are 20 PSI and 5 gallons per

minute.

HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND:

Your pressure washer is equipped with

a multi-adjustable spray wand with

both high and low pressure settings.

The high pressure setting is for

cleaning and rinsing, the low pressure

setting is for applying chemicals or

cleaning solutions to surfaces.

When using the high

pressure setting, DO

NOT allow the jet-like spray to come

in contact with unprotected skin,

eyes, or with any pets or animals.

Serious injury can occur.

Risk of injection or

injury to person. DO

NOT direct discharge stream toward

persons.

For high pressure operation, pull back

the nozzle of the multi-adjustable

spray wand as shown.

HOW TO USE

IMPORTANT: Read and understand

how to use the pressure washer

before operating.

D28236

STORAGE

PUMP

ENGINE

1. Drain all water from high pressure

hose, coil it, and store it in cradle

of the pressure washer handle.

IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent

gum deposits from forming in essential

fuel system parts such as the

carburetor, fuel filter, hose or tank

during storage. Also, experience

indicates that alcohol-blended fuels

(called gasohol or using ethanol or

methanol) can attract moisture which

leads to separation and formation of

acids during storage. Acidic gas can

damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage. To avoid engine

problems, the fuel system should be

emptied before storage of 30 days or

longer. Never use engine or carburetor

cleaner products in the fuel tank or per-

manent damage may occur.

2. Drain all water from spray gun and

spray wand by holding spray gun

in a vertical position with nozzle

end pointing down and squeezing

trigger. Store in gun/hose holder.

3. Store chemical hose, high pressure

hose, spray gun, and spray wand

so they are protected from dam-

age, such as being run over.

It is recommended that you follow

these steps to protect the internal seals

of the pressure washer when STORING

THE UNIT FOR MORE THAN 30 DAYS

AND/OR WHEN FREEZING

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED.

RENSEIGNEMENTS SUR LA SÉCURITÉ DU CONSOMMATEUR

Il se peut que ce produit ne soit pas équipé d’un silencieux

à pare-étincelles. Si le produit n’en est pas équipé, et s’il

est utilisé près de matériaux inflammables ou sur de la terre couverte de produits

agricoles, forêts, broussailles, gazon ou autres articles semblables, un pare-étincelles

approuvé doit être posé, et est exigé par la loi en Californie. Selon la section 130050

de la loi de la Californie, et les sections 4442 et 4443 du Code sur les ressources

publiques de la Californie, ce produit ne peut pas être utilisé en Californie, à moins

que le moteur ne soit équipé d’un pare-étincelles, tel que décrit dans la section 4442,

et à moins que l’appareil ne soit maintenu en bon état de fonctionnement. Des pare-

étincelles sont également requis sur certaines terres forestières des États-Unis et

peuvent être exigés légalement sous certains autres lois et arrêtés.

Les gaz d’échappement du moteur contiennent des

produits chimiques qui, dans certaines quantités, peuvent

causer le cancer, les anomalies congénitales ou d’autres maux de reproduction.
