INSTALLATION
Getting Started
IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment
will assure more satisfactory performance, longer
service life, and lower maintenance cost.
IMPORTANT: The use of a backfl ow preventer on
the water supply hose is recommended and may be
required by local code.
The pressure washer should be run on a level surface
and in a protected area where it is not readily infl uenced
by outside forces such as strong winds, freezing tem-
peratures, rain, etc. The pressure washer should be
located to assure easy access for fi lling of fl uids, adjust-

taken by the operator to prevent moisture from reaching
the pressure washer. It is recommended that a partition
be made between the wash area and the pressure washer
to prevent direct spray from the wand from coming in
contact with the pressure washer. Moisture reaching the
equipment will reduce the pressure washer’s service life.
All installations must comply with the local codes covering
such installations.
Venting
CAUTION: All venting must be in accordance
with applicable federal and state laws, and local
ordinances. Consult local heating contractors.
If the pressure washer is to be used in an enclosed area,
a fl ue must be installed to vent burner exhaust to the
outside atmosphere. Be sure the fl ue is the same size
as the burner exhaust vent on the pressure washer. See
Component Identifi cation
for location. Poor draft will
cause the pressure washer to soot and not operate prop-

of poorly ventilated locations or areas where exhaust
fans may cause an insuffi cient supply of oxygen. Proper
combustion can only be obtained when there is a suf-
