PRESSURE WASHER

MAINTENANCE

Check and Clean Inlet Screen

Examine the screen on the water inlet.Clean it if the

screen isclogged or replace it if screen is damaged.

Check High Pressure Hose

The high pressure hose can develop leaksfrom wear,

kinking,or abuse.Inspect the hose each time before using

it.Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of cover,

damageor movement of couplings. If any of these

conditions exist, replacethe hose immediately.

_IL WARNING

NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace Ft.

Replacement hose rating MUST exceed maximum pressure

rating of unit.

Check Detergent Siphoning Tube

clogged.The tube should fit tightly on the barbed fitting.

Examinethe tube for leaks or tears. Replacethe filter or

tube if either isdamaged.

Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube

If you usedthe detergent siphoning tube, you must flush it

with clean water before stopping the engine.

I. Placechemical injection slphon/filter in a bucket full of

dean water.

2. Attach black low pressure spray tip.

3. Flushfor I-2 minutes.

4. Shut off engine.

IMPORTANT: Simply shutting OFF engine will not

releasepressure in the system.When the engine has

shut down, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to

relieve the pressure in the hose.

Check Gun and Nozzle Extension

Examinethe hose connection to the spray gun and make

sure it issecure.Test the trigger by pressing it and making

sure it"springs back" into placewhen you releaseit. Put

the safety latch in the ON position and test the trigger.You

should not be able to press the trigger.

Check In-Line Filter

Refer to Figure 10and service the in-linefilter if it

becomes clogged,asfollows:

Purge Pump of Air and

Contaminants

To remove air from the pump, follow these steps:

I. Set up pressure washer asdescribed in"Preparing

PressureWasher For Use". Connect water supply and

turn water on.

2. Putltrigger on spray gun and hold.

3. When water supply issteadyand constant, engage

safety latch.

To remove contaminants from the pump, follow

these steps:

I. Set up pressure washer asdescribed in"Preparing

turn water on.

2. Start engine according to instructions in "To Start

PressureWasher".

3. Removenozzle extension from spraygun.

4. Squeezetrigger on spray gun and hold.

5. When water supply is steadyand constant,engage

safety latch and reattach nozzle extension.

Nozzle Maintenance

A pulsing sensationfelt while squeezingthe spray gun

trigger may be caused by excessivepump pressure.The

principal cause of excessivepump pressure is a spray tip

dogged or restricted with foreign materials,such asdirt,

etc.To correct the problem, immediately dean the spray tip

usingthe tools included with your pressure washer and

follow these instructions:

I. Shut off engine and turn off water supply.

2. Remove spray tip from end of nozzle extension.

3. Remove in-line filter from other end of nozzle

extension.

4. Use wire included in kit or a small paper clip to free

any foreign material clogging or restricting spray tip

(Figure II).

5. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by back

flushing water through nozzle extension (Figure 12).

Back flush between 30 to 60 seconds.

6. Reinstall spray tip and in-line filter into nozzle

extension.

7. Reconnect nozzle extension to spray gun.

8. Reconnect water supply, turn on water, and start

engine.

9. Test pressure washer by operating with each Quick

Connect spray tips.

O-Ring Maintenance

Throughthe normal operation of your pressure washer,

o-rings, which keep the connections of the hoses and spray

gun tight and leak-free,may become worn or damaged.

An O-Ring MaintenanceKit is provided with your pressure

washer which includesreplacement o-rings, rubber washer

and water inlet filter. Refer to the instructionsheet provided

in the kit to service your unit's o-rings.Note that not atl of

the parts inthe kit witl be usedon your unit.

To remove a worn or damagedo-ring; usea small flathead

screwdriver to get underneath the o-ring and pry it off.

Section 5: Maintenance

Pump Maintenance

Changing Pump Oil

PREPARING THE UNIT

FOR STORAGE

Water should not remain inthe unitfor longperiods of

time. Sedimentsor minerals candeposit on pump parts and

"freeze" pump action. If you do not plan to usethe pressure

washer for more than 30 days,follow this procedure:

I. Flushdetergent siphoningtube by placingfilter into pail

of cleanwater while running pressure washer in low

pressure mode. Flushfor one to two minutes.

2. Shut off engineand let it cool, then remove high

pressure and garden hoses.Disconnect spark plug wire

from spark plug.

Empty pump of liquidsby pulling engine recoil handle

about 6 times.This should remove most liquidin pump.

Use pump saverto prevent corrosion build up and

freezing of pump.

Store unit in a clean,dry area.

Protecting the Pump

To protect the pump from damagecaused by mineral

deposits or freezing,use PumpSaverto treat pump.This

prevents freeze damageand lubricatespistons and seals.

NOTE: PumpSaveris availableasan optional accessory.It

is not includedwith the pressure washer.Contact the

nearest authorized servicecenter to purchasePumpSaver.

CAUTION

• Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and

renderyour unit inoperable.

• Freezedamageisnot coveredunderwarranty.

CAUTION

AlwaysweareyeprotectionwhenusingPumpSaver.

To use PumpSaver,make sure the pressure washeris

turned off and disconnected from supply water.Readand

follow all instructionsand warnings given on the PumpSaver

container.

NOTE: PumpSaverwill drip from pump after treatment

and will stain wood and concrete.

NOTE: If PumpSaveris not available,draw RVantifreeze

(non-alcohol) into the pump by pouring the solution into a

3-foot section of garden hose connected to inlet adapter

and pulling recoil handle twice.
