OPERATING YOUR PRESSURE WASHER 
 

1. How to Pre-start your pressure washer 

 

To start your pressure washer for the first time, follow these instructions. This 

information also applies if you let the pressure washer sit idle for at least a day. 

1.1 Place pressure washer near an outside water source capable of supplying 

water at a flow rate at least 5 gallons/19L per minute and no less than 20 psi 

at pressure washer end of garden hose.  

1.2 Check all high pressure hose connections are tightly connected to the pump, 

valve, spray gun and Roto-Clean.  

1.3 Make sure there are no kinks on hoses 

1.4 Make sure the unit is in a levelled position. 

 

 

2. Attaching High pressure hose to spray gun 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.1 The spray gun is preassembled to a swivel M22 Male nipple.  

2.2 Connect the M22 female twist knob from the high pressure hose to the 

spray gun as shown by hand, make sure it’s a tight fit and the threads 

are not cross threaded (the connection is a self-sealed one, hence no 

plumbing is needed)
