CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Connections
CAUTION:
If the screen is not kept clean, the flow of water to the pressure washer will be
restricted and the pump may be damaged.
Connections on pressure washer hose, gun and spray wand should be cleaned regularly and
lubricated with non-water soluble grease to prevent leakage and damage to the o-rings.
Nozzles
The nozzles should be lubricated with non-water soluble grease or light oil regularly.
Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump pressure to build up too high and cleaning is immediately
required.
1) Clear blockage in nozzle by forcing stiff wire through center hole.
2) Backflush the nozzle with water. Restart the pressure washer and depress the trigger on the
spray gun. If the pressure is still too high, repeat above items 1-2.
Lubrication
The pressure washer is designed with a permanent lubrication system. Conventional oil check and
oil changes are not necessary.
NOTE: In case of oil leakage, contact our customer service department.
Water Screen
To clean inner water screen, remove garden hose connector and remove the filter screen from the
inlet. Backflush screen to clean. Replace screen and garden hose connector immediately to
prevent any foreign matter from entering the pump.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the screen while removing or cleaning. Any foreign particles
entering the pump may damage the pump.
