10. Small parts should be washed in a basket so the pres-
sure does not push them away. Larger, light weight
parts should be clamped down so the pressure does
not push them away.
11. Turn the side detergent control knob clockwise (CW)
for detergent decrease. Wait for detergent to clear.
Always rinse with cold water after using detergent.
Rinse from the top to the bottom to prevent detergent
from dripping onto a rinsed area. For the best results,
contact your Hotsy dealer to help you select the best
detergent for your application.
To Stop
NOTE: If the machine is unplugged, the GFCI must be
reset prior to use. Always test GFCI before each use.
1. If detergents were used, draw clean water through
the detergent inlet line to purge detergent. Failure to
do so may clog detergent injector valve.
2. If burner was used, turn OFF burner switch and allow
pump to run cold water through coil for several
minutes.
3. Turn OFF pump switch.
4. Turn OFF water supply.
5. Squeeze trigger gun open to relieve system pressure.
6. Depress gas control knob slightly and turn to OFF
position.
7. Turn off main shut-off valve on gas supply.
STORAGE
DANGER: Do not store flammable liquids (gasoline,
diesel fuel, petroleum, solvents, etc.) near pressure
washer or in non-ventilated areas.
1. Protect from freezing by storing in a heated area,
or by flushing the system with antifreeze (use an
automotive engine antifreeze or windshield washer
solvent to antifreeze). To flush the system with anti-
freeze, attach a short length of hose to the garden
hose connector, see Figure 1 for location. Place the
other end of the hose into a container of antifreeze.
Start machine and allow to run until antifreeze flows
from the end of the wand. Squeeze and release the
trigger gun several times to antifreeze the unloader
system. Also draw antifreeze through the detergent
inlet line to antifreeze the detergent system. For added
protection after antifreezing, disconnect the pressure
hose from machine and remove the coil drain plug
(refer to Figure 1 for location). After coil has drained,
replace pressure hose and coil drain plug. If the pres-
sure washer is not to be used for an extended length
of time, it is recommended that the system be flushed
with antifreeze for rust protection.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Unauthorized machine modification or
use of non-approved replacement parts may cause
personal injury and/or property damage and will void
the manufacturer warranty.
Pump
Lubrication: To lubricate pump, use 30W non-detergent
oil for pump crankcase. Crankcase must be filled to center
of sight glass window found on the side of the pump, refer
to Figure 7. During the break-in-period, make sure the
oil is changed after the first 25 hours of operation. After
that, replace oil every 3 months or 300 hours of operation,
whichever comes first.
Proper Pump Care
• DO NOT pump acids.
• DO NOT allow pump to run dry.
• Winterize if storing in freezing temperatures, refer
to Storage for details.
• Use a water softener on the water system if known
to be high in mineral content.
• Use only high quality detergents and follow manu-
facturer’s mix recommendations.
• Flush the system with clean water immediately
after using detergent solutions.
• Clean filter screen on detergent inlet line periodi-
cally.
• Flush the pressure washer system with antifreeze
if storing for an extended period of time, refer to
Storage for details.
