O-Ring Maintenance
Purchase an O-Ring/Maintenance Kit, model
6048, by contacting the nearest authorized
service center. It is not included with the
pressure washer. This kit includes replacement
o-rings, rubber washer and water inlet filter.
Refer to the instruction sheet provided in the kit
to service your unit’s o-rings.
Engine Oil
We recommend the use of Briggs & Stratton
Warranty Certified oils for best performance.
Other high-quality detergent oils are acceptable
if classified for service SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher.
DO NOT use special additives.
Outdoor temperatures determine the proper oil
viscosity for the engine. Use the chart shown
in Figure 19 to select the best viscosity for the
outdoor temperature range expected.
NOTE
: Synthetic oil meeting ILSAC
GF-2, API certification mark and API
service symbol with “SJ/CF ENERGY
CONSERVING” or higher, is an
acceptable oil at all temperatures. Use
of synthetic oil does not alter required oil
change intervals.

WARNiNG
: The high pressure stream of
water that this equipment produces
can cut through skin and its underlying
tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure,
even when engine is stopped and water is
disconnected, which can cause injury.
Keep high pressure hose connected to pump
•
and spray gun while system is pressurized.
ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction,
•
press red button and squeeze spray gun
trigger to release high pressure, every time
you stop engine.
NEVER repair leaking connections with
•
sealant of any kind. Replace o-ring or seal.

* Below 40°F (4°C) the use of SAE 30 will result in hard starting.
** Above 80°F (27°C) the use of 10W30 may cause increased oil consumption.
Check oil level more frequently.
