LOW OIL SENSOR
To prevent the engine damage caused by an insufficient amount of oil in the crankcase,
engine is equipped with a low oil sensor. If the oil is below the safe amount, the sensor
will activate and will prevent engine start-up or will stop the running engine.
If Pressure Washer shuts off and the oil level is within specifications, check to see
if Pressure Washer is sitting at an angle that forces oil to shift.
Place on an even surface to correct this. If engine fails to start, the oil level may not
be sufficient to deactivate low oil level sensor. Add oil as described above.
ADDING FUEL
1. Move the Pressure Washer
OUTSIDE
and place on a flat and level
surface.
2. Remove the gas tank cap. Carefully add 87 Octane (or higher)
grade
unleaded
gasoline to the tank. DO NOT OVERFILL. Leave
room for the gasoline to expand.
3. Replace and hand tighten gas cap and wipe off any spilled fuel.
Fuel and fuel vapor are extremely flammable and explosive.
Fire or explosion from misuse of fuel can cause severe burns
and even death.
Failure to use fuel as recommended in this manual will void the warranty.
WHEN ADDING FUEL TO PRESSURE WASHER, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
•
DO NOT
use unapproved gasoline such as E85 (85% ethanol/15% gasoline).
•
DO NOT
mix oil with gasoline.
•
DO NOT
modify engine to run on alternate fuels.
• Turn Pressure Washer
OFF
and let it cool for at least two minutes before
removing fuel cap. Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat and other ignition
sources.
•
DO NOT
light a cigarette or smoke near open fuel tank or container.
• Clean area around fuel fill cap and slowly remove cap to allow any pressure to
escape.
• Install fuel cap and allow any spilled fuel to evaporate before starting engine.
