GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The pressure washer warranty does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or
negligence. To receive the full value from the warranty,
the operator must maintain the pressure washer as
instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically
to properly maintain your high pressure washer.
All adjustments in the Maintenance section of this
manual should be made at least once each season.
Once each year you should clean or replace the
spark plug and clean or replace the air filter and
check the spray gun and nozzle extension
assemblies for wear. A new spark plug and clean air
filter assure proper fuelair mixture and help your
engine run better and last longer.

Check water inlet screen for damage.
Check high pressure hose for leaks.
Check chemical injection tube and filter for damage.

for leaks.

MAINTENANCE
Check and Clean Inlet Screen
Examine the screen on the water inlet. Clean it if the
screen is clogged or replace it if screen is damaged.
Check High Pressure Hose
The high pressure hose can develop leaks from wear,
kinking, or abuse. Inspect the hose each time before
using it. Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of
cover, damage or movement of couplings. If any of
these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately.
DANGER!
Water spraying from a leak is
capable of injecting material into skin. Inspect
hose each time before using it.
Never
repair a
high pressure hose. Replace it with another
hose that exceeds the maximum pressure rating
of your pressure washer.
Check Chemical Injection Tube
Examine the filter on the detergent hose and clean if
clogged. The tube should fit tightly on the barbed
fitting. Examine the tube for leaks or tears. Replace
the filter or tube if either is damaged.
