Storage
PREPARING THE UNiT FOR
STORAGE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts
and "freeze" pump action. If you do not plan to use the
pressure washer for more than 30 days, follow this
procedure:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing 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 and let it cool, then remove high
pressure and garden hoses. Disconnect spark plug
wire from spark plug.
3. Empty pump of liquids by pulling engine recoil
handle about 6 times. This should remove most
liquid in pump.
4. Use pump saver to prevent corrosion build up and
freezing of pump.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
Protecting the Pump
To protect the pump from damage caused by mineral
deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver to treat pump.
This prevents freeze damage and lubricates pistons
and seals.
NOTE: PumpSaver is available as an optional accessory.
It is not included with the pressure washer. Contact the
nearest authorized service center or visit your local
Lowe's store to purchase PumpSaver.
CAUTION
,, Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump
and render your unit inoperable.
,, Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
CAUTION
Always wear eye protection when using PumpSaver.
CAUTION
,, Protect surfaces from dripping PumpSaver.
To use PumpSaver, make sure the pressure washer is
turned off and disconnected from supply water. Read
and follow all instructions and warnings given on the
PumpSaver container.
NOTE: If PumpSaver is not available, draw RV
antifreeze (non-alcohol) into the pump by pouring the
solution into a 3-foot section of garden hose connected
to inlet adapter and pulling recoil handle twice.
