MAINTENANCE & CARE
AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance of the air cleaner helps maintain proper airflow to the carburetor. Occasionally check that
the air cleaner is free of excessive dirt. Refer to Recommended Maintenance Schedule in Fig. 17.
1. Unscrew the cover bolt, then remove the air cleaner cover.
2. Remove the air cleaner element from the casing.
3. Check and clean the air cleaner element. Replace with a new one if the element is damaged. Good element can
be washed in soapy water, dried and reused. There is no need to add oil to the element.
4. Wipe off excessive oil from the air cleaner case. Small amount of oil in the element is normal and necessary for
the engine to work properly.
5. Reinstall the air cleaner element and cover.
CAUTION: running the engine with dirty, damaged or missing air cleaner element will cause the engine to wear
out prematurely.
DRAINING THE FUEL TANK
Clean fuel tank each year or before storing the pressure washer for extended periods of time. To drain the fuel
tank and carburetor:
1. Turn the fuel valve to the “OFF” position. Remove the fuel line between the fuel valve and carburetor.
CAUTION
: a small amount of fuel may leak from the hose during removal.
2. Attach a fuel line (not included with the pressure washer) to the exposed end of the fuel valve. Position fuel line
into an appropriate container and open the fuel valve allowing fuel to flow into the container.
3. Once fuel is drained, shut off the fuel valve. Start and run the engine until fuel runs out.
CAUTION:
Store the emptied gasoline in a safe place. Do not store fuel for more than 3 months.
DRAINING THE SOAP
To drain the soap, unplug the hose highlighted in Figure 20.
Use a container to hold the draining soap. Once the soap is
done draining, reconnect the hose.
