HOW TO USE YOUR
PRESSURE WASHER
If you have any problems operating your pressure
washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-270-1408 .
You have assembled your high pressure washer and
have prepared the engine for starting. You are now
ready to clean your car, boat or the outside of a build-
ing or whatever you plan to clean.
How to Start Your Engine
The best way to start your engine-powered pressure
washer for the first time is to follow these instructions
step-by-step. This starting information also applies
whenever you start the engine after you have let the
pressure washer sit idle for at least a day.
• This pressure washer requires a water source that
flows at least 2 gallons per minute. Do not attempt
to siphon water from a non-pressurized con-
tainer. Place the pressure washer close enough to
an outside water source so that no more than 50' of
garden hose is needed.
• Check that the high pressure hose is tightly con-
nected to the spray gun and to the pump. See
ASSEMBLY section for illustrations.
• Connect the garden hose to water inlet on the pres-
sure washer pump and turn the water on all the
way.
IMPORTANT: Do not run pump without the water
supply connected and turned on. You must follow this
caution or the pump will be damaged.
• Set choke control to
“Choke” position. Note: This
is a multi-position choke.
• Move the throttle control to the ‘Fast’ position.
Note : For a warm engine, be sure the Throttle Con-
trol Lever is in the ‘Fast’ position and the Choke
Lever is in the “Run” position.
• Turn the fuel shut–off valve to the “On” position.
• Move the stop control to the “On” position.
• Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to relieve air
pressure caused by turning ON the water. Water
will spew out the gun in a thin stream. Continue to
hold trigger until you have a steady stream of water
and no air remains.This will make it easier to pull
start the engine. Release the trigger.
• Apply the safety latch to the spray gun trigger
(Figure 10).
• Grasp rope handle and pull slowly until you feel
some resistance. Then pull cord rapidly to over-
come compression, prevent kickback and start the
engine. Let rope return to starter slowly.
Note: Always keep the throttle control in the ‘Fast’
position when operating the pressure washer.
• When the engine starts, gradually move the choke
control from one position to the next until it is in the
“Run” position.
If after 3 pulls the engine fails to start, disengage the
spray gun safety latch, squeeze the trigger to relieve
water pressure, re-engage the spray gun safety latch,
move the choke control to the “Run” position and pull
the recoil starter handle rapidly (Max. 3 pulls).
How to Stop Your Pressure
Washer
Important: Do Not move the choke control to
“Choke” position to stop the engine. Backfire or
engine damage may occur.
• Move the throttle control to the
“Idle” or “Slow” posi-
tion.
• Wait for the engine to idle down.
• Move the stop control to the
‘Off’ position.
• Close the fuel shut–off valve.
•
Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to relieve
pressure in the hose. Simply shutting off the
engine will not release pressure in the system.
Note: A small amount of water will squirt out when
you release the pressure.
