CHECKING PRESSURE PUMP OIL:
The pressure pump is maintenance free. If you notice any sign of oil leakage in and
around the pump, DO NOT operate the pressure washer. Please call the pressure
washer helpline at 1-888-278-8092.
CLEANING NOZZLE:
Occasionally, the spray wand can become clogged with foreign materials such as
dirt. When this happens, excessive pressure can develop. Whenever the pressure
nozzle becomes partially clogged, the pump pressure will pulsate. It should be
immediately cleaned.
1. Make sure Pressure Washer is shut off and spray gun
trigger is locked.
2. Remove high pressure spray nozzle from the spray wand.
Using the nozzle cleaning needle (provided), remove any
obstructions by inserting and carefully moving the pin
back-and-forth through nozzle hole under clean running
water.
3. After cleaning, remove the needle from nozzle and store for future use.
4. Reassemble pressure nozzle to spray wand.
CLEANING WATER INLET SCREEN FILTER:
The water inlet screen filter should be checked periodically and
cleaned if necessary.
1. Disconnect inlet water hose.
2. Remove filter by grasping end and pull straight back. See
3. Clean screen filter by flushing both sides with water.
4. Insert screen filter back inside water inlet port.
Do not operate Pressure Washer without screen filter in
place. Impurities entering pressure pump can cause internal damage.
CLEANING PRESSURE WASHER:
Daily or before use inspections should include areas around and underneath
Pressure Washer looking for signs of fuel or oil leaks. Preventative maintenance
should be taken if leaks are found. Clean accumulated debris from outside and
inside Pressure Washer. Ensure all linkages, springs and other engine controls are
kept clean. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on Pressure Washer. Openings
must be kept clean and unobstructed for peak performance of Pressure Washer.
Engine components should be kept clean reducing risk of overheating and ignition
of accumulated debris.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
• Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt or oil.
• Use a shop-vacuum to pick up any loose dirt and debris.
Never turn off water supply with engine running. This will
cause the pressure pump to overheat resulting in internal damage.
