Check Gun and Spray Tip Extension
Examine hose connection to spray gun and make sure it is
secure. Test trigger by pressing it and making sure it springs
back into place when you release it. Do not depress red button
and test trigger. You should not be able to press trigger. Replace
spray gun immediately if it fails any of these tests.

Spray Tip Maintenance

A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun trigger
may be caused by excessive pump pressure. The principal
cause of excessive pump pressure is a spray tip clogged or
restricted with foreign materials, such as dirt, etc. To correct
the problem, immediately clean the spray tip following these
instructions:
1. Shut off engine and turn off water supply.
2. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction, press red
button and and squeeze spray gun trigger to release
retained high water pressure.
WARNING The high pressure stream of water that
this equipment produces can cut through skin
and its underlying tissues, leading to serious
injury and possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when engine is
stopped and water is disconnected, which can cause
injury.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray gun
while system is pressurized.
• ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction, press red button
and squeeze spray gun trigger to release high pressure, every
time you stop engine.
3. Remove spray tip from end of spray tip extension.
4. Use a small paper clip to free any foreign material
clogging or restricting spray tip (A).

is not included with the pressure washer. This kit includes
replacement o-rings, rubber washer and water inlet filter. Refer to
the instruction sheet provided in the kit to service your unit's
o-rings.

this equipment produces can cut through skin
and its underlying tissues, leading to serious
injury and possible amputation.
• NEVER repair leaking connections with sealant of any kind.
Replace o-ring or seal.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Oil
Oil Recommendations
We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton Warranty
Certified oils for best performance. Other high-quality
detergent oils are acceptable if classified for service SF, SG,
SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil viscosity for
the engine. Use the chart to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
* Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W30 may cause increased oil
consumption. Check oil level more frequently.
NOTE: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC GF-2, API
certification mark and API service symbol with
"SJ/CF ENERGY CONSERVING" or higher, is an
acceptable oil at all temperatures. Use of synthetic oil
does not alter required oil change intervals.
