CAUTION
Be certain the hoses and spray gun are not attached to the pump during application
of pump saver or use of the blowout tool. Having a hose attached greatly reduces the
amount of water/debris removed from the pump and coil.
SHUTTING THE UNIT DOWN
1.
Move the burner switch to the “OFF” position.
2.
Squeeze the trigger and discharge the water for three minutes to cool the heat
exchanger and high pressure hose. Insufficient cool-down periods for the high
pressure hose will cause excessive wear and eventual rupture of the hose.
3.
Do not close the choke to stop the engine. Backfire or engine damage may occur.
4.
Move the engine key switch to the OFF position.
5.
Turn off the water supply and pull the trigger of the gun to relieve trapped pressure.
Disconnect and drain the high pressure hose, gun, and lance. Wipe the unit clean and
store in a non-freezing environment.
SHUTTING DOWN & STORAGE
STORAGE & WINTERIZING
When storing the unit for winter, it is important to ensure it is stored in the right
environment. Ensure the storage area stays above freezing during cold weather, and try
to limit the amount of dust gathered on the unit via a cover.
You will need to ensure that the fuel is drained from the engine prior to storage. For the
steps required to do this, see the engine user manual.
Once the unit has been stored and the gasoline has been drained, the last thing to do is
to winterize your pump. This can be done in one of two ways:
• “Pump Saver”
Solution
(P/N: 85.490.046)
. This is an anti-freeze solution that is used
before storing the unit. It coats to inside of the pump to ensure that any residual
water doesn’t freeze. To use BE Pump Saver, follow the instructions written on
the bottle. Water freezing in the pump will damage seals and other internal parts.
Freezing damage is not covered by warranty.
• “Pump & Coil Blowout Tool”
(P/N: 59.400.000)
. This tool utilizes compressed air to
forcefully remove any water left in the pump. One end of the tool attaches to an air
compressor, while the other attaches to the inlet of your water pump via an adapter.
Follow the instructions on the back of the packaging to use the Pump and Coil
Blowout Tool.
