PREPARING THE UNIT
FOR STORAGE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and
"freeze" pump action. If you do not plan to use the pressure
washer for more than 30 days, follow this procedure:
1. Flush chemical injection hose by placing filter into pail of
clean water while running pressure washer in low
pressure mode (adjustable nozzle in forward position).
Flush for one to two minutes.
2. Shut off engine and let it cool, then remove high pressure
and garden hoses. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug.
3. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil handle
about 6 times.This should remove most of the liquid in
pump.
4. Use PumpSaver to prevent corrosion build up and
freezing of pump.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.

Protecting the Pump

deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver to treat pump.This
prevents freeze damage and lubricates pistons and seals.
