Connect Hose and Water Supply to
Pump
IMPORTANT: You must assemble the nozzle extension
and attach all hoses before you start the engine. Starting
engine without all hoses connected and water supplied will
damage the pump.
NOTE: Your pressure washer comes with a quick connect
that you can use to attach the high pressure hose to either
the pump or spray gun.
• Uncoil the high pressure hose and attach the female quick
connect to one end of the hose. Attach the male quick
connect to the high pressure fitting on the pump (Figure 8).
• Attach the high pressure hose to the high pressure outlet
on the pump (Figure 9). Pull down on the collar of the
quick connect, slide fitting into the pump and let go of
collar. Pull on hose to be sure of a tight connection.
NOTE: The quick connect is shown connecting the high
pressure hose to the pump. If you choose to use the quick
connect for the gun to hose connection, follow the same
directions to attach quick connect from gun to hose.
• Attach the other end of the hose to the base of the
spray gun (Figure 10). Tighten by hand.
• Before you connect your garden hose to the water inlet,
inspect the inlet screen (Figure 11). Clean the screen if it
contains debris, replace it if it is damaged. DO NOT
RUN THE PRESSURE WASHER IF THE SCREEN IS
DAMAGED. NEVER SIPHON INLET WATER.
• Run water through the garden hose for 30 seconds to
clean out any debris. Turn off water.
