OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4
Step 1
Check oil level. Oil level should be level with the
bottom of the oil filler neck. Be sure the machine is level when
checking the oil level. (Refer to the engine’s operating manual
for seasonal grades.) We recommend that the oil be changed
after the first 5 hours of use, then once every 50 hours. Note:
Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor to shut off engine.
Step 2
Fill gas tank
with unleaded gasoline.
Do not use leaded gasoline.
Never use hot water.
Step 3
Connect
garden hose to the cold
water source and turn water
on completely.
Never use hot water.
Step 4
Trigger the gun
to eliminate trapped air, wait
for a steady flow of water to
emerge from the spray
nozzle.
Step 5
Slide the choke
lever out to the closed
position (on a warm engine,
leave the choke lever in the
open position).
Step 6
Slide the
throttle lever up about
1/3 of the way toward the
fast position.
Step 7
Pull the starter
handle. If the engine fails to
start after 3 pulls, squeeze
the trigger gun to release
pressure, and repeat step.
After the engine warms up
enough to run smoothly,
move choke to open position
and throttle to fast position.
Important!
Do not run the engine
with a high or low oil
level as this can cause
engine damage.
If you have further
questions regarding the
engine, please refer to
the engine’s operating
manual included with
the unit.
