KNOW YOUR PRESSURE WASHER
Read this owner’s manual and safety rules before operating your high pressure washer.
Compare the illustrations with your high pressure washer to familiarize yourself with the locations of various
controls and adjustments. Save this manual for future reference.
Adjustable Nozzle Extension — You must attach this
to the spray gun to provide high pressure stream. The
adjustable nozzle allows you to adjust the spray pattern
which, in turn, adjusts the force of spray.
Air Cleaner — Dry type filter element limits the amount
of dirt and dust that gets in the engine.
Automatic Cool Down System — Cycles water
through pump when water reaches 140°-145°F. Warm
water will discharge from pump onto ground. This
system prevents internal pump damage.

Goggles — Always use the enclosed goggles or other
eye protection when running your pressure washer.

pump and the other end to spray wand.
