empty. Usefresh fuel next season.See Storagefor additional

information.

NEVERuse engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel

tank as permanent damagemay occur.

LubricateO-Rings

Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation

and operation. The useof a lubricant (petroleum or synthetic

grease)during assembly helps seat o-rings properly and

provides an improved seal. It alsohelps protect the o-ring

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 assemblingthe garden hoseto the pump (A),

high pressurehose (B),spray gun (C), and nozzle

extension(D).

Lubricateall connectionsshownbelow, following these

instructions:

1. inspect and clean connecting surfaces prior to

lubrication and assembly.

2. Uselubricants sparingly during assembly;a light film is

all that is required.

3. Usea small brush or cotton swab to applygrease

directly to o-rings wherethey are not accessible (QC

fitting, M22 fitting).
