4.9 ASSEMBLY FOR ITEM 8093262 (ref. pages 44-45)
1. Remove the wooden carton supports that are fastened to the base of the pressure washer sub-
assembly by removing the screws (2 per support).
2. Install rubber feet (6) to rear leg (5) using nuts (7).
Prior to steps 4 through 6, place the base (1) consisting of the pump/engine on a stool or bench for
ease of assembly.
CAUTION
, the sub-assembly is very heavy.
3. Install rear leg (5) to base (1) using bolts (8) and nuts (7).
4. Place axle (18) through holes on base (1). Place spacers (17) on axle on either side of the base.
Place wheels (54) on the axle so the spacers are snug against the flanges of the base. Center the
axle so an equal amount of threads are exposed from the hub of each wheel.
5. Install washers (46) and lock nuts (45) on the threaded ends of axle. Note that the axle has right hand
threads on both ends. Using a 1-1/16 wrench on each end, as one nut is tightened the opposite will
tighten. Tighten the nuts enough so the washers are flush with the bearing/hub (i.e. do not rattle), but
avoid over-tightening as the washer will press against the bearing and prevent the wheel from turning.
The lock nuts will be close to their proper installed position once the ends of the axle threads become
flush with the top face of the lock nuts.
If it is necessary to remove the wheels, loosen one nut - holding the opposite nut with a wrench. Once
the nut is off, use a pair of vice-grips to lock the axle (place grips somewhere along the middle of the
axle underneath the base, and avoid gouging the metal) and then remove the opposite nut. An
alternative is to remove the axle from the base once the nut is off and use a vice to take off the
remaining wheel.
6. Install front frame (4) to base (1) using bolts (10), washers (9) and nuts (30).
7. Install rear handle assembly (3) to base (1) using bolts (10), washers (9) and nuts (30).
8. Install jug holder (19) to belt guard (15) using bolts (8) and nuts (7).
9. Install belt guard (15) to base (1) using bolts (8) and nuts (7).
10. Install rubber grommets (20) to rear handle assembly (3).
11. Install quick-change nozzles (21, 23, 24) to rubber grommets (20).
12. Install male quick coupler (28) to the spray gun (11).
13. Install lance (26) to spray gun (11).
14. Install quick-change nozzle (27) to lance (26).
15. Install female quick-coupler (29) to hose (61).
16. Connect hose (61) to spray gun (11).
17. Install coupler (56) to free-end of hose (61).
18. Connect hose/coupler (61/56) to the coupler (38) at the discharge end of the pump (35).
19. If you are using detergent:
a) Attach clear hose (60) to chemical injector on pump (35).

c) Insert strainer end into detergent container (not supplied).
