BREAK-IN PERIOD
Breaking-in the engine will help to ensure proper equipment and engine
operation. The operational break-in period will last about 3 hours of use.
During this period:
1. Do not apply a heavy load to the equipment.
2. Do not operate the engine at its maximum speed.
The maintenance break-in period will last about 20 hours of use.
Change the engine oil after this period.
USING THE PRESSURE WASHER
1. Unlock and hold down the Trigger to start the stream. Be aware
that when it is first started, the gun will kick.
2. Start with a low pressure nozzle and gradually use higher
pressures as needed.
2.1 Test spray the surface at an edge to make sure that the stream
is not too strong.
2.2 If the stream damages the surface, move farther away to
reduce the applied pressure.
2.3 If the stream is still too strong, lock the trigger in the safety
position and change to a lower pressure nozzle.
3. Hold the wand at about a 45° angle when cleaning; spraying the
surface directly could embed dirt into the surface (especially with the
high pressure nozzles). Spray at distance of about three to five feet.
4. Clean vertical and sloped surfaces from the top down.
5. When cleaning horizontal surfaces, occasionally use the stream to
clear the area of excess water.
6. Hold the Trigger down and move the wand back and forth slowly
and steadily to pressure wash the surface. Take special care when
spraying surfaces made of two different materials (brick and
mortar, for example), so as to not damage the softer of the two
materials during pressure washing.
7. If the surface is streaked or uneven at the end of a job, switch to a
Nozzle that has a wider spray pattern to blend the affected area.
