from damageby abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends

the life of the o-ring.

NOTICE ALWAYSapply a small amount of lubricant on

o-rings prior to assembling the garden hoseto the pump

(A), high pressure hose(pump end) (B), high pressure hose

of wire tip cleaner(IVl)into small opening repeatedlyto

removeany clog or sediment buildup. Thewire tip cleaner

is stored at the lower back left of the unit.

SprayTip Maintenance

Excessivepump pressure cancause a pulsing sensationfelt

while squeezingthe spray gun trigger. Theprincipal causeof

excessivepump pressure is a spray tip clogged or restricted

with foreign materials such as dirt, etc.A clogged spray tip

could leadto pump cycling ON/OFFor not turning on even

when there is some flow.

To correct the problem, immediatelycleanthe spraytip by

following theseinstructions:

1. Pressthe master ON/OFFswitch to the OFF(0) center

position. Removepower cord plug from electricaloutlet.

2. Disconnectwater supply at the electric pressurewasher.

3. ALWAYSpoint spray gun in a safedirection, presstrigger

lock button and squeezespray gun trigger to release

retainedhigh water pressure.

_, WARNING The high pressure stream of water that

this equipment produces could cut through skin

and its underlying tissues, resulting in serious

injuryand possible amputation.

Spraygun traps high water pressure, evenwhen motor is

stopped and water is disconnected,which could result in

serious injury.

• Keephigh pressure hoseconnected to pump and spray

gun while system is pressurized.

• ALWAYSpoint spray gun in safe direction, squeeze

spray gun trigger to releasehigh pressure,every time

you turn off pressure washer.
