OPERATION

PUMP LUBRICANT
The pressure washer pump has been filled with sufficient
lubricant at the factory and is maintenance free. You do not
need to check or add lubricant to the pump before initial use.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE PRESSURE
WASHER
See Figure 15.
NOTICE:
Do not run the pressure washer without water supply
connected and turned on, as this may damage the high
pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely
unwind the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the
hose is not being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other
objects that may lessen or prevent water flow to the
pressure washer.
Before starting the motor:
 Connect all hoses.
NOTE: Make sure the pressure washer's water intake
screen is in place and unclogged before connecting
garden hose.
 Turn on the garden hose then pull the trigger to relieve air
pressure; hold the trigger until a steady stream of water
appears.
NOTE: Make sure the faucet is turned on fully and that
there are no kinks or leaks in the hose.
To start the motor:
 With the on/off switch in the OFF position (O), connect
the pressure washer to the power supply.
NOTE: If using an extension cord, make sure to arrange
a drip loop as described on page 2.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all
connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug
with wet hands.
 Press the reset button on the pressure washer's plug to
make sure the unit is ready for operation.
 Put the on/off switch in the ON position (I) to start the
motor.
NOTICE:
Routinely make a visual inspection of the pump and
motor during use. If you notice any lubricant leaking
around the pump or motor seals, stop using the pres-
sure washer immediately. Contact customer service or
a qualified service center for repair. Failure to do so may
cause property damage.
