WARNING:
To prevent accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury, always disconnect the engine spark plug
wire from the spark plug when assembling parts.
INSTALLING THE HANDLE
See Figure 2.
CAUTION:
Be careful to avoid pinching your fingers or hands when
installing the handle onto the frame.
Push and hold the push-pin button on the side of the handle
as you slide the handle onto the frame.
NOTE: Before use, pull the handle up until the push-pin button
snaps through the locking slots to secure the handle in place.
CONNECTING THE SPRAY WAND TO THE
TRIGGER HANDLE
See Figure 3.
 Place the threaded end of the spray wand in the connec-
tor on the end of the trigger handle.
 Turn the connector clockwise until it stops. This secures
the spray wand in place.
CONNECTING THE BATTERY
See Figure 4.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or explosion, do not
short circuit the battery terminals or charge in a sealed
container. Keep sparks and flame away. Do not use metal
tools for connections and keep metal objects away from
the battery terminals. Metal objects can make a connec-
tion from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together can cause sparks, burns, or a fire.
The battery cable on the battery must be connected to
the pressure washer before the electric start feature of the
pressure washer can be operated. Remove the cap from the
battery side of the cable. Plug the two ends of the battery
cable together as shown to connect.
ASSEMBLY
CONNECTING HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO
TRIGGER HANDLE
See Figure 5.
 Screw the collar on the non-sleeved end of the high pres-
sure hose into the trigger handle inlet coupler by turning

 Pull on the hose to be certain it is properly secured.
CONNECTING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
TO THE PUMP
See Figure 6.
 Completely uncoil and straighten the high pressure hose
to prevent kinks.

for more information about using the high pressure hose.
 Align the collar on the sleeved end of the hose to the
threaded outlet on the pump.
 Insert the high pressure hose collar onto the threaded
outlet.
 Turn the collar clockwise to tighten the hose securely to
the pump.
NOTE: Be careful to avoid cross-threading, which can

CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE TO THE
PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 7.
NOTICE:
Always observe all local regulations when connecting
hoses to the water main. Some areas have restrictions
against connecting directly to public drinking water sup-
ply to prevent the feedback of chemicals into the drinking
water supply. Direct connection through a receiver tank
or backflow preventer is usually permitted.
