MAINTENANCE
wARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard
or cause product damage.
wARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shields during power tool operation or when
blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a
dust mask.
wARNING:
Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the ma-
chine, shut off engine, wait for all moving parts to
stop, and disconnect spark plug wire and move
it away from spark plug. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious personal injury
or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
wARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can
damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may
result in serious personal injury.
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should
be replaced at an authorized service center.
CLEANING ThE AIR FILTER
See Figure 20.
A dirty air filter will cause starting difficulty, loss of
performance, and shorten the life span of the engine. Check
the air filter monthly. For best performance, replace the air
filter at least once a year.

Push the tab on the air filter cover to open, then remove
the air filter cover.

Lift the edge of the air filter carefully and pull it out.

Wash the air filter with warm, soapy water.

Rinse and squeeze to dry.

Put small amount of motor oil (SAE 30, orSAE 10W30) on
the filter sponge. Squeeze out the excess oil then reinstall
the air filter.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is seated properly inside the
cover. Installing the filter incorrectly will allow dirt to enter
the engine, causing rapid engine wear.

Reinstall the air filter cover.
ChANGING ThE OIL
See Figure 21.

Place a container under the pressure washer.

Remove th e oil drain plug and drain the old oil.
NOTE: Drain the oil while the engine is still warm but not
hot. Warm oil will drain quickly and more completely.

Replace the oil drain plug.

Replace the oil with new, clean oil. This engine will hold
20 oz. or .6 liters of oil (SAE 30 or SAE 10W30).
NOTE: Consult hazardous waste management guidelines
in your area for the proper way to dispose of used oil.
ChECKING A FOULED SPARK PLUG
See Figure 22.

Clean carbon deposits off the spark plug electrode using
a plug cleaner or wire brush.

Check electrode gap. The gap should be .6 mm - .7 mm.
Adjust the gap, if necessary, by carefully bending the side
electrode.
Replacement spark plug: NKG E6RC or equivalent
