NOTICE:
Do not run the pressure washer without water supply
connected and turned on, as this may damage the high
pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely
unwind the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the
hose is not being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other
objects that may lessen or prevent water flow to the
pressure washer.
Before starting the engine:

Connect all hoses.
NOTE:
Make sure the pressure washer’s water intake
screen is in place and unclogged before connecting
garden hose.

Check all fluids (lubricant and gas).
 Turn on the garden hose then squeeze the trigger to
relieve air pressure; hold the trigger until a steady stream
of water appears.
NOTE: Make sure the faucet is turned on fully and that
there are no kinks or leaks in the hose.
To start the engine:

Place the ON/OFF switch in the ON ( I ) position.

Turn the fuel valve to the OPEN position.
 Pull choke out to the START position.
NOTE: If restarting after a brief stop (i.e., after refueling
or moving), leave the choke in the RUN position.

Grasp the starter grip and rope and pull slowly until
resistance is felt. Give the starter grip and rope a short,
brisk pull to start the engine.
NOTE:
Do not allow the starter grip and rope to snap
back after starting; return it gently to its original place.

Let the engine run for 5 seconds, then push the choke in
