3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
THIS UNIT IS INTENDED TO BE USED WITH COLD WATER ONLY! DO NOT USE HOT WATER IN
THIS PRESSURE CLEANER!
STARTING UP
After connecting the pressure cleaner to your cold water supply, proceed as follows:
- Make sure that the on/off switch is in the off position.
- Connect the garden hose to the inlet fitting.
- Attach the hose to the gun as per assembly instruction step #1.
- Insert the adjustable spray nozzle into the gun as per assembly step #2
- Connect the high pressure hose to the high pressure outlet fitting as per assembly step #3
- Connect the garden hose to the high pressure washer inlet fitting as per assembly step#4
- Open the water supply valve completely.
- Before turning the unit on, press the gun trigger to bleed all the remaining air out of the pump and
hose.
- Start the pressure cleaner by turning the on/off switch to the on position and squeeze the trigger.
REMINDER: Motor does not run continuously, only when the trigger is squeezed.
WARNING – RISK OF INJECTION! Unit will start spraying when trigger is squeezed. When turning
the unit off after use, high pressure still exists inside the hose and unit. Point the gun in a safe
direction and discharge the excess pressure. NEVER direct the high pressure water stream at
people or animals.
Automatic On/Off
The pressure cleaner is equipped with an automatic on/off switch. The pressure cleaner will only
run when the power switch is in the ON position and the trigger on the gun is squeezed. When you
release the trigger to stop spraying water through the gun, the motor on the pressure cleaner will
automatically shut off. Simply squeeze the trigger again to resume using the cleaner. To stop using
the pressure cleaner, release the trigger and switch the unit to the OFF position. The unit should be
turned completely OFF while not in use or while unattended.
Bleeding the Gun
It is very important to bleed the gun before using the pressure cleaner. Refer to the “Assembly
Instructions” to assemble the pressure cleaner. To bleed the gun, simply connect the garden hose
to the pressure cleaner and squeeze the trigger BEFORE turning the electrical supply on. This
allows any air trapped inside the pressure cleaner and gun to be removed before using the unit.
Continue holding trigger for approximately one minute to allow any excess air out of the unit. Water
will flow through the gun at low pressure during this procedure. For more bleeding tips, see the
section titled “Operating Instructions.”
Gun Safety Lock
This pressure cleaner is equipped with a gun trigger safety lock. When not using the pressure
cleaner, use the safety lock to keep from accidentally engaging the high pressure spray.
