STARTING AND STOPPING THE PRESSURE
WASHER
See Figure 11.
CAUTION:
Do not run the pump without the water supply connected
and turned on.
 Connect the garden hose.
 Turn the garden hose on then squeeze the trigger to relieve
air pressure. Once a steady stream of water appears,
release the trigger.
 After ensuring the On/Off switch is in the OFF ( O ) posi-
tion, connect the pressure washer to the power supply.
 Press the reset button on the pressure washer's plug to
make sure the unit is ready for operation.
 Press ON ( I ) on the switch to start the motor.
 To stop the motor, release the trigger and press OFF
( O ) on the switch.
NOTE: The pressure washer may be on and the sytem
may have pressure even when the pump and/or motor
cannot be heard running. Always use caution around the
pressure washer.
WARNING:
Hold the trigger handle securely with both hands. Expect
the trigger handle to move when the trigger is pulled due
to reaction forces. Failure to do so could cause loss of
control and injury to yourself and others.
USING THE TRIGGER AND LOCK-OUT
See Figure 12.
For greater control and safety, keep both hands on the
trigger handle at all times.
 Pull back and hold the trigger to operate the pressure
washer.
 Release the trigger to stop the flow of water through the
nozzle.
To engage the lock-out:
 Pull the lock-out lever toward the grip on the handle until
it snaps into place in the groove.
To disengage the lock-out:
 Push the trigger forward slightly to free the lock-out lever
from the groove. Put the lever back into place on the trig-
ger.
For the most effective cleaning, the nozzle end of the spray
wand should be between 8 in. and 24 in. from the surface
to be cleaned. If the spray is too close it can damage the
cleaning surface.
