PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY

Following are common terms associated with the use of Pressure Washers:
PSI: Pounds per square inch – common unit measure used for water pressure, air
pressure, hydraulic pressure and pounds of force.
GPM: Gallons per minute (liters per minute [metric]) – common unit measure used
for flow rate of water.
This Pressure Washer requires some assembly. If you have any problems with the
assembly of your Pressure Washer, please call the Pressure Washer helpline at
1-888-278-8092. If calling for assistance, please have the model, revision, and seri-
al number from the data tag available.

2. Carefully remove all items from the box and inspect for completeness (see
Functional Description).

PRESSURE HOSE/GUN CONNECTION

Unpack the high pressure hose and
connect the hose connector to the gun
inlet. Ensure that the threads are
aligned properly and that the connec-
tion is secure. Securely tighten the con-
nector by hand.

PRESSURE HOSE/WASHER CONNECTION

1. Remove and discard the protective
plastic plug from the high pressure outlet.
2. Connect the high pressure hose
connector to the high pressure
outlet at the lower back of the unit.
Ensure that the threads are aligned
properly and that the connection is
secure. Securely tighten the connector by hand.

GARDEN HOSE/WASHER CONNECTION

DO NOT run the pump without the water supply connect-
ed and turned on. Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void warranty.
1. Before connecting the garden hose to
the Pressure Washer, connect the
garden hose to the water source and
run water through the hose to flush
out any debris. Shut off the water at
the source.
2. Attach garden hose to the pressure washer water inlet. Ensure that the threads
are aligned properly and that the connection is secure. Securely tighten the nut
by hand.
3. Turn on the water source.
For best result, use a short garden hose (30 ft. or less
length), cold water (less than 100 F) and adequate pressure (no less than 50 PSI).
