GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The pressure washer warranty does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or
negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the
operator must maintain the pressure washer as
instructed in this manual.
NOTE: Should you have questions about replacing
components on your Troy-hilt pressure washer, please
call 1-888-611-6708 for assistance.
• Some adjustments will need to be made periodically
to properly maintain your pressure washer. Check the
spray gun and nozzle extension assembly for wear.
• All maintenance in this manual and the engine
operator's manual should be made at least once
each season.
• Once a year you should clean or replace the spark
plug, clean or replace the air filter. A new spark plug
and clean air filter assure proper fuel-air mixture and
help your engine run better and last longer. Please
refer to your engine operator's manual for more details.
If equipped with inflatabletires, keep the air pressure
at the value marked on the tire or within 15 and 40 psi.

these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately.
WARNING
NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace it.
Replacement hose rating MUST exceed maximum
pressure rating of unit.
Check Detergent Siphoning Tube
Examine the filter on the detergent tube and clean if
clogged. The tube should fit tightly on the barbed
fitting. Examine the tube for leaks or tears. Replace the
filter or tube if either is damaged.

make sure it is secure. Test the trigger by pressing it and
making sure it "springs back" into place when you
