WINTERIZING
1. For storage and transportation purposes in subfreezing ambient tem-
peratures, it will be necessary to winterize this unit. This unit must be
protected to the lowest incurred temperature for the following reasons:
a. If any part of the pumping system becomes frozen; excessive
pressure may build up in the unit which could cause the unit to burst
resulting in possible serious injury to the operator or bystanders.
b. The pumping system in this unit may be permanently damaged if
frozen. FREEZE DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
If you must store your unit in an area where the temperature may fall
below 32°F, you can protect your unit by following the procedure outlined
below.

a. Two 5 gallon containers.
b. One gallon of antifreeze. (Use an environmentally safe antifreeze.)
c. Water supply.
d. Three foot hose, 1/2-3/4 I.D. with a 3/4 inch male garden hose fit-
ting.
2. Procedure:
a. To start winterizing, unit must be run according to the “Start-up
Cold Water Operation”.
b. After running, shut off the unit and water supply.
c. Relieve system pressure by pointing the trigger gun in a safe direc-
tion and squeezing the trigger until water flow ceases to exit the Lance
Assy.
d. Lock the trigger gun in the OFF position and adjust the Lance to the
low pressure mode.
e. Remove the water supply hose from the unit and attach the 3 foot
hose securely to the inlet connection.
f. Shut off the detergent injector (if applicable).
