MAINTENANCE
2. Clear the nozzle with a small rigid piece of wire such as a paper clip.
3. Flush the nozzle backwards with water.
4. Reconnect the wand to the gun.
Restart the pressure washer and depress the trigger on the spray gun. If the nozzle is still plugged or partially
plugged, repeat above instructions 1-4.
If the previous procedure does not clear the nozzle, replace with a new nozzle.
WATER SCREEN
The pressure washer is equiped with a water inlet screen to protect the pump. If the screen is not kept clean,
it will restrict the flow of water to the pressure washer and may cause damage to the pump. Do not damage
screen when cleaning it. Any foreign particles entering the pump may damage the pump. Do not operate
pressure washer without the screen in place. Remove the screen and backflush to remove impurities from
screen. Replace immediately.
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
During the winter months, rare atmospheric conditions may develope which will cause an icing condition in
the carburetor. If this develops, the engine may run rough, lose power and may stall. This temporary
condition can be overcome by deflecting some of the hot air from the engine over the carburetor area.
STORAGE
Pump Storage
If you must store your pressure washer in a location where the temperature is below 32° F, you can minimize
the chance of damage to your machine by utilizing the following procedure:
1. Shut off water supply and relieve pressure to the spray gun by depressing the trigger.
Disconnect the garden hose from the pressure washer, but leave the high pressure hose connected.
2. Tip the unit on its side with the inlet connection pointing up.
3. Insert a small funnel (to prevent spilling) into the inlet and pour in approximately 1/4 cup of antifreeze.
4. Disconnect spark plug wire.
5. Without connecting garden hose pull the recoil several times to criculate the antifreeze in the pump system.
6. Disconnect spark plug wire.
CAUTION!
Prior to starting, thaw out any possible ice from the pressure washer hoses, spray gun
and wand.
