Spark Arrester Service
Your engine is not factory-equipped with a spark arrester. In
some areas, it is illegal to operate an engine without a spark
arrester. Check local laws and regulations. A spark arrester is
available from your nearest Sears service center. If you need
to order a spark arrester, please call 1-800-4-MY-HOME
(469-4663).
The spark arrester must be serviced every 50 hours to keep it
functioning as designed.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very hot.
Allow the muffler to cool before servicing the spark arrester.
WARNING
Contact with muffler area can result in serious
burns.
Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles,
structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire.
• DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases.
• Allow equipment to cool before touching.
• Keep at least 5 feet (152 cm) of clearance on all sides of
pressure washer including overhead.
• Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) Title 36 Parks, Forests, and
Public Property require equipment powered by an internal
combustion engine to have a spark arrester, maintained in
effective working order, complying to USDA Forest service
standard 5100-1C or later revision. In the State of California a
spark arrester is required under section 4442 of the California
Public resources code. Other states may have similar laws.
• Remove spark arrester screen for cleaning and inspection.
• Replace if screen is damaged.
Air Cooling System
Over time debris may accumulate in cylinder cooling fins and
cannot be observed without partial engine disassembly. For
this reason, we recommend you have a qualified Sears
service dealer clean the cooling system per recommended
intervals (see Maintenance Schedule). Equally important is to
keep top of engine free from debris. See Clean Debris.
Keep areas within heavy line clear of debris.
Clean Combustion Chamber
We recommend you have a qualified Sears service dealer
remove combustion deposits from the cylinder, cylinder head,
top of piston and around valves per recommended intervals
(see Maintenance Schedule).

AFTER EACH USE

Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of time.
Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and
"freeze" pump action. Follow these procedures after every
use:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter into
a pail of clean water while running pressure washer in
low pressure mode. Flush for one to two minutes.
2. Shut off engine, turn off water supply, point gun in a
safe direction and squeeze trigger to relieve trapped
pressure,
engage trigger lock on spray gun
cool.
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 and squeeze spray
gun trigger, to release high pressure, every time you stop
engine. Engage trigger lock when not in use.
3. Disconnect hose from spray gun and high pressure
outlet on pump. Drain water from hose, gun, and nozzle
extension. Use a rag to wipe off the hose.
4. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil
handle about 6 times. This should remove most liquid in
pump.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
6. If storing for more than 30 days see Long Term Storage
on next page.
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and
explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN TANK
• Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes
dryers, or other appliances that have pilot light or other ignition
source because they can ignite fuel vapors.
