Care and Maintenance

PROTECTING THE PUMP

To protect the pump from damage caused by mineral
deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver or RV-antifreeze to
treat the pump. This prevents freeze damage and lubricates
pistons and seals.
• Failure to do so will permanently damage the pump and
render the unit inoperable.
• Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
To protect the unit from freezing temperatures:
1. Follow steps 1-3 in the previous section After Each Use.
2. Use a pump saver to treat pump. This minimizes freeze
damage and lubricates pistons and seals.
3. If a pump saver is not available, connect a 3-foot section
of garden hose to the water inlet adapter. Pour RV-
antifreeze (antifreeze without alcohol) into the hose. Pull
the recoil handle twice. Disconnect the 3-foot hose.
WARNING

• Let the equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing
the cover on the equipment.
