PREPARING THE PRESSURE WASHER
1. Place the pressure washer on a secure, stable surface to prevent it from tipping during operation.
2. Check that all connections have been properly installed and secured according to the instructions on page 8.
• The high pressure hose is properly fastened to the machine water outlet and the gun hose connector.
• The spray lance is properly attached to the trigger gun.
• The garden hose is properly fastened to the pressure washer’s water inlet adapter.
CAUTION:
This unit is intended to be used with cold water only. Do not use hot water in this pressure washer.
3. Turn on the water supply to its maximum flow.
4. It is very important to bleed all the air out of the pressure washer before using it. Release the safety lock and
pull the trigger for a few seconds until the water flow is steady. This will allow air to escape and discharge any pre-
existing pressure from the gun and the hose. Then turn off the water.
AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUTOFF/ TTS (TOTAL STOP SYSTEM)
The pressure washer is equipped with an automatic pump shutoff function that senses the water flow in the pump.
The pump will only run when the power switch is in the ON position and the trigger pulled. When the trigger
is released and no water is flowing through the pump, the motor will automatically shut off to protect the pump
from overheating, thus saving energy and prolonging pump life.
So don’t worry if the pump shuts off when the trigger is released. Your pressure washer is still okay. Simply
squeeze the trigger again to resume pressure washing.
WARNING:
To prevent serious injury, make sure all the warnings and instructions have been read and
understood before operating this tool.

OPERATING THE PRESSURE WASHER
1. Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position. Plug the Ground Fault Cir-
cuit Interrupter (GFCI) into a matching receptacle (see page 6 for important electrical
information). We recommend that you test the GFCI as part of your startup proce-
dure each time you use your pressure washer as instructed below.
Press the RESET button (Fig. 9), and the power indication light should turn on. Press
the TEST button, and the power indication light should turn off. DO NOT use if the
test fails. Press the RESET button again after completing the test to enable operation.
2. Point the gun at a safe direction, aimed away from any bystanders or animals. Set
the ON/OFF switch to ON (Fig. 10).
3. Hold the gun firmly and pull the trigger to begin pressure washing. Beware of
kickback when pressing the trigger.
WARNING:
Never direct the water steam at people, animals or electrical
devices. The high-pressure spray can cause severe injury.
