Operations
To Stop
NOTE: If the machine is unplugged, the GFCI must
be reset prior to use. Always test GFCI before each
use.
1. If detergents were used, draw clean water through
the detergent inlet line to purge detergent. Failure
to do so may clog detergent injector valve.
2.
Turn burner switch off and continue spraying,
allowing the water to cool to below 100°F.
3. Turn OFF pump switch.
4. Turn OFF water supply.
5. Squeeze trigger gun open to relieve system
pressure.
6. Depress gas control knob slightly and turn to OFF
position.
7. Turn off main shut-off valve on gas supply.
Storage
DANGER: Do not store flammable liquids (gasoline,
diesel fuel, petroleum, solvents, etc.) near pressure
washer or in non-ventilated areas.
DANGER: Ne pas entreposer de liquides
inflammables (essence, mazout, pétrole, solvants,
etc.) à proximité de la laveuse à pression ou dans
des endroits non ventilés.
1. Protect from freezing by storing in a heated area,
or by flushing the system with antifreeze (use an
automotive engine antifreeze or windshield washer
solvent to antifreeze). To flush the system with
antifreeze, attach a short length of hose to the
garden hose connector, see Component Identifica-
tion for location. Place the other end of the hose
into a container of antifreeze. Start machine and
allow to run until antifreeze flows from the end of
the wand. Squeeze and release the trigger gun
several times to antifreeze the unloader system.
Also draw antifreeze through the detergent inlet
line to antifreeze the detergent system. For added
protection after antifreezing, disconnect the
pressure hose from machine and remove the coil
drain plug (refer to Component Identification for
location). After coil has drained, replace pressure
hose and coil drain plug. If the pressure washer is
not to be used for an extended length of time, it is
recommended that the system be flushed with anti-
freeze for rust protection.
