This  operator’s  manual 

was  compiled  for  your  benefit.    By  studying  and 
following 

the 

safety, 

installation, 

operation, 

maintenance, 

and 

troubleshooting 

information 

contained within,  you can look forward to many years 
of  trouble-free  service  from  your  equipment.    Every 
person who will operate the equipment must read and 
follow  the  safety  warning  and  operating  instruction 
sections of this owner’s manual prior to use.  You are 
responsible  for  operating  the  product  properly  and 
safely.    You  are  also  responsible  to  follow  the 
maintenance  schedule  on  the  back  page  of  this 
manual to keep your warranty active.

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  manufacturer  with  the 
fuel tanks empty and without the battery.  Connect the 
battery  cables  (positive  lead  first)  and  follow  the 
operation  instructions  for  starting.    High  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).
