LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more than
30 days, you must prepare the engine and pump for long
term storage.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter,
fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates
that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or
methanol) can attract moisture, which leads to separation
and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can
damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
Protect Fuel System
Fuel Additive:
If adding a fuel additive, fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel. If
only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel
deterioration during storage. Engine and fuel can be stored
up to 24 months with additive.
•
Add fuel additive following manufacturer's instructions.
•
Make sure you have water supply to pump inlet
connected and turned ON.
•
Run the engine outdoors for several minutes to be sure
that treated fuel has replaced the untreated fuel in the
carburetor.
If fuel additive is not used, remove all fuel from tank and run
engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
Change Engine Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase. Refill
with recommended grade. See Changing Engine Oil.
Oil Cylinder Bore
•
Remove spark plug. Squirt about a tablespoon of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. Cover spark plug hole with
rag. Pull recoil handle slowly to distribute oil. Avoid spray
from spark plug hole.
•
Install spark plug. DO NOT connect spark plug wire.
Protect Pump
To protect the pump from damage caused by mineral
deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver, Sears retail item
7174403GS, to treat pump. This prevents freeze damage and
lubricates pistons and seals.
NOTE: PumpSaver is available as an optional accessory. It is
not included with the pressure washer. Contact your local
Sears service center to purchase PumpSaver.
You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.
• Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and
render your unit inoperable.
• Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
To use PumpSaver, make sure the pressure washer is turned
off and disconnected from supply water. Read and follow all
instructions and warnings given on the PumpSaver
container.
Other Storage Tips
1.
DO NOT store fuel from one season to another unless it
has been treated as described in Protect Fuel System.
2. Replace fuel container if it starts to rust. Rust and/or dirt
in fuel can cause problems if it's used with this unit.
3. Cover unit with a suitable protective cover that does not
retain moisture.
Storage covers can be flammable.
• DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot pressure washer.
• Let equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the
cover on the equipment.
4. Store unit in a clean and dry area.
