Problem Correction
Unit will not turn on. 1. Make sure the power washer is in the “OFF” position. Plug in the electrical
cord to a grounded 120 volt outlet (no electrical extension cord should
be used). If the electrical cord will not plug into your outlet, your electrical
outlet is not properly grounded and should not be used. Use another
electrical outlet. Turn the unit back “ON”.
2. If this did not correct the problem, try plugging into another electrical out-
let and repeat the above procedure. If it is still not working, call Customer
Service.
The unit is running
but there is no water
flow. 1. Check the water source. Unclog the nozzle on the lance. (See nozzle
cleaning instructions under “Cleaning nozzles”.) Or take off the nozzle and
just spray out of the spray gun and lance. This will indicate if the problem
is with the nozzle.
Why is water leaking
where the high
pressure hose
connects to the spray
gun?
1. Make sure there is an o-ring at the end of the metal tip of the high pres-
sure hose. If no o-ring is present, the connection between the hose and
spray gun will leak.
The power washer
turns on for
2 seconds, shuts
off, and will not turn
back on. Do I have a
defective unit? 1. When the water is connected, the accessories are assembled properly,
and the power switch is turned on, the power washer may turn on for 1 - 2
seconds to prime the pump. It automatically shuts off and waits for the
spray gun trigger to be pressed. When the trigger is pressed, water starts
flowing through the pump. The water sensor in the pump “senses” the
moving water and automatically turns the power washer on.
2. Turn the power switch to off, hold in the trigger on the spray gun, so that
you have a steady stream of water. While you are holding the trigger open
on the spray gun, at the same time, turn the power switch on.
