• Standing at the rear of the unit, insert the wire support

with the longer arm positioned on the left. From the
rear, the hook should resemble a “J”. (Figure 3)

Add Engine Oil

WARNING!

Any attempt to crank or start the

engine without adding the recommended oil may
result in an engine failure.

• Place pressure washer on a level surface.

• Refer to the engine owner’s manual for the method used

to fill the engine with the recommended oil.

NOTE: Check oil often during engine break–in.

Add Gasoline

DANGER!

Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill

fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do Not
smoke when filling fuel tank.

WARNING!

Never fill fuel tank completely full.

Fill tank to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe
away any fuel spillage from engine and equipment
before starting.

Use fresh, clean unleaded regular automotive gasoline.
Store fuel in approved, clean covered containers. Use clean
fill funnels. Never use “stale” gasoline left over from last
season or gasoline stored for long periods.

• Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

• Slowly add “UNLEADED” regular gasoline to fuel tank,

one inch below the lowest portion of the fuel fill neck.
Use a funnel to prevent spillage (Figure 4).

• Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.

Connect Hose and Water Supply to

Pump

IMPORTANT: You must attach all hoses before you start
engine. Starting engine without all hoses connected and
water supplied will damage pump.

• Uncoil high pressure hose and attach one end of hose to

the base of the spray gun (Figure 5). Tighten by hand.
