USING PUMP PROTECTOR
See Figure 16.
Regular use of a commercially available pump protector
prolongs the life of the pressure washer by removing hard
water mineral deposits, lubricating pump seals and pistons,
and preventing freeze damage. Pump protector should be
added to the unit after every use and before storage. Pump
protector can be purchased at the retailer where you pur-
chased your pressure washer, or by calling customer service.
