GETTING STARTED:
If your dealer has not
prepared the machine for startup, you may need to
connect the hose to the pressure outlet on the
washer and connect the other end of the hose that
swivels to the trigger gun inlet and tighten. Mobile
Wash Skids are engine powered and shipped from
the factory with the fuel tanks empty and without
the battery. Fill the battery to the fill line with
electrolyte (available through your dealer or a local
auto parts store). Connect the battery cables, and
follow the operation instructions for starting.
Pressure Steamers are electric powered and will
require an appropriate electric outlet or disconnect
box and an electric plug that is rated for your
machine’s voltage and amperage and matches to
your electrical socket. Smaller machines are
equipped with a ground fault interrupter on the
electrical cord and you will need to press the reset
button after it is plugged in. (See Operating
Instruction
section
and
enclosed
page
on
Installation Guidelines).
