OPERATION
■ Place the injection hose (2) in the bottom of the
detergent.
■ Install the black nozzle on the spray wand.
■ Spray the detergent on a dry surface using long,
even, overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking,
do not allow the detergent to dry on the surface.
Before shutting the engine:
■ Place the injection hose in a bucket of clean water.
■ Flush for 1 – 2 minutes (spray clear water through the
spray wand).
■ Shut off the engine.
NOTE: Shutting OFF ( O ) the engine will not relieve
pressure in the system. Pull trigger to release water
pressure.
RINSING WITH THE PRESSURE WASHER
■ Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
■ Engage the lock out on the wand by pushing up on
the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
■ Pull back and hold the collar.
■ Remove the nozzle by pulling it from the collar.
■ Select the right nozzle for the job:
- Use lower pressure nozzle (green) to wash items
such as a car or boat.
- Use higher pressure nozzle (red) for jobs such as
stripping paint and degreasing the driveway.
When using these nozzles, test a small area first to
avoid surface damage.
■ Start at the top of the area to be rinsed and work
down overlapping the strokes.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
When servicing, use only identical replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a
hazard or cause product damage.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields during power machine
operation or when blowing dust. If operation is
dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING
Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the
machine, shut off engine, wait for all moving
parts to stop, and disconnect spark plug wire and
move it away from spark plug. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in serious personal
injury or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by
their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil,
grease, etc.
WARNING
Do not at any time let brake fluids, petrol,
petroleumbased products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can
damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may
result in serious personal injury.
Before running the engine, perform the following
pre-operation steps:
■ Check that all bolts, nuts, etc. are securely tightened.
■ Make sure the air filter (25) is clean.
■ Check both the engine oil level and the fuel tank
level; refill as needed.
■ Inspect the work area for hazards.
■ If there is excessive noise or vibration, stop the unit
immediately.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER (Fig. 16)
A dirty air filter will cause starting difficulty, loss of
performance, and shorten the life span of the engine.
Check the air filter monthly. If working in dusty soil,
clean the air filter after each refueling. For best
performance, replace the air filter at least once a year.
■ Remove the shroud screws holding the shroud in
place as shown in figure 16.
■ Remove the air filter cover.
■ Lift the edge of the air filter carefully and pull it out.
■ Wash the air filter with warm, soapy water.
■ Rinse and squeeze to dry.
■ Put small amount of 10W30 motor oil on the filter
sponge. Squeeze out the excess oil then reinstall the
air filter.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is seated properly inside
the cover. Installing the filter incorrectly will allow dirt
to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
