SET-UP

WATER SUPPLY

  1. Select a water supply hose which is a quality grade of the hose measuring at least 3/4″ ID and no longer than 50 feet to the water tank.
  2. Attach a hose measuring 1/2″ ID and rated for 100PSI minimum to the bypass from the unloader valve to the water supply tank
  3. Connect the hose to the inlet of your high pressure pump. Ensure the connection is tight at both ends (at the pump inlet and at the water supply source).
  4. Install water inlet filter between pump and tank.
  5. Never allow the unit to operate without the water hose attached and the water supply opened all the way.

NOTICE

If there is a high mineral content in your water, it is highly recommended that a water softener and an additional water strainer be added to the water inlet. This will help prevent the possibility of excessive scale buildup inside the heat exchanger coil.

Pumps are water-cooled. When the machine is running, ensure the trigger of the gun is pressed to allow a constant flow of fresh water into and out of the pump. Do not let the machine run for more than 30 seconds without pulling the trigger.

Most pumps are protected by a thermal valve (1). The thermal valve releases water if a pump starts to run too hot. It will prevent catastrophic heat failure. However, the pump may have suffered damage and need maintenance, repair, or replacement. If it does not reset and continues to leak water, the thermal valve may need to be replaced.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot

HOW TO USE SPRAY TIPS
The quick–connect on the nozzle extension allows you to switch between five different quick-connect spray tips. Spray tips can be changed while the pressure washer is running once the spray gun trigger safety lock is engaged. The spray tips vary the spray pattern as shown above.

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS TO CHANGE SPRAY TIPS:

  1. Pull back collar on quick–connect coupler and pull the current spray tip off. Store the spray tips in the holder provided on the handle. Storing tips in the designated holder will help prevent any debris from clogging the tip.
  2. Select the desired spray tip:
    • For a gentle rinse, select the white 40° spray tip.
    • For light cleaning, select the green 25° spray tip.
    • For high pressure cleaning, select the yellow 15° spray tip.
    • To scour the surface, select the red 0° spray tip.
    • To apply detergent, select the black spray tip. No other spray tip will draw soap
  3. Pull back on collar, insert spray tip and release collar. Tug on spray tip to ensure it is securely in place.

USAGE TIPS

  • For most effective cleaning, keep spray tip 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning surface.
  • If the spray tip gets too close to the surface being cleaned, especially using a high pressure spray tip (red or yellow), it may be damaged. Do not use the red spray tip on glass. Doing so could result in broken or cracked glass.

OPERATION

PRE-OPERATION SAFETY

  1. This unit should only be placed on a level surface to ensure proper lubrication for the water pump while operating. Placing the unit on a level surface will also ensure that fuel, oil, and other fluids don’t spill during operation. NEVER spray water directly on the unit.

  2. Do not use unit in an area:

    • with insufficient ventilation.
    • where there is evidence of oil or fuel leaks.
    • where flammable gas vapors may be present.
      This unit has multiple ignition sources that could cause a fire or explosion.
  3. Do not allow the unit to be exposed to rain, snow, or freezing temperatures. If any part of the unit becomes frozen, excessive pressure may build up in the unit which could cause it to burst. This would result in possible serious injury to the operator or bystanders.

  4. Pump oil level should be checked before each use. Make certain the oil is on the “Full” mark on the dipstick or in the center of the oil sight glass. If the level appears to be low, fill with SAE30W non-detergent pump oil.

  5. Your pressure washer is equipped with an electric starter. On initial start-up, wear proper eye and skin protection when filling the battery with acid. Fully charge the battery to allow electric starter to function.

MANUAL & SAFETY REVIEW

  1. Review “Risk of Explosion or Fire” warnings, before fueling.
  2. Locate the Safety Decals on your unit and heed their warnings.
  3. Engines: See the included engine Owner’s Manual for fuel requirements.
  4. Burner Fuel: When filling tank, use No. 1 or No 2 fuel oil/diesel or kerosene.
  5. Check the engine oil level before starting the engine.
  6. Review the engine manual accompanying this pressure washer for correct engine start-up and maintenance procedures.

START-UP PROCEDURE PREPARATION
Before starting the unit, perform the following procedures:

  1. Check the oil level and condition for the pump and engine. We recommend SAE 10W30 oil for engines and SAE 30 mineral oil for pumps.
  2. Inspect the water inlet strainer. Clean or replace if necessary.
  3. Check all hose connections to ensure they are securely tightened.
  4. Inspect for system water leaks, oil leaks and fuel leaks. If a fuel leak is found, do not start the unit. Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit.
  5. Inspect high pressure hoses for kinking, cuts, and leaks. If a cut or leak is found, do not use the hose. Replace hose before starting unit. Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that the mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit.

START-UP (COLD WATER)
To start your pressure washer for the first time, follow these instructions step-by-step. This starting information also applies if you have let the pressure washer sit idle for at least a day.

  1. Make sure the unit is level and placed on solid surface.

  2. Connect garden hose to water inlet on pressure washer pump. To do this, thread the end of the hose into the inlet by hand until tight and secure.

  3. Attach wand extension to spray gun. Tighten by hand.
    NOTICE
    DO NOT run the pump without the water supply connected and turned on. Failure to follow this rule will result in damage to the pump. Damage caused by running the pump without water is not covered by warranty.

  4. Choose desired spray tip, pull back nozzle extension collar, insert spray tip and release collar. Tug on spray tip to make sure it is securely in place. See Spray Tips on page 9 for more information.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot Water Pressure Washer-fig-13

  5. Pull down on the collar of the quick-connect coupler, slide onto the gun connector and let go of collar. Pull on hose to ensure the connection is tight.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot Water Pressure Washer-fig-14

  6. Attach the other end of the high pressure hose to high pressure outlet (“A” on diagram below) on pump. Pull down on collar of quick-connect, slide onto pump and let go of collar. Note that some pumps require the hose to be threaded on. Tug on the hose to ensure connection is secure.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot Water Pressure Washer-fig-15

  7. Turn water supply on if you have not already done so. Point the gun in a safe direction and squeeze the trigger to purge the pump of air and debris. Do this until water flow is flowing at a steady rate. Continue to hold trigger of gun down while starting the machine to ensure there is no pressure build-up.

  8. Take a final look at all connections to make sure there are no leaks or loose connections. If there are any leaks in hoses, they must be replaced.
    IMPORTANT: DO NOT siphon standing water for the water supply. Make sure burner switch is OFF

  9. To start the machine, locate the electric ignition switch on the right side of the engine. Insert the key and turn it to the “ON” position” until the unit starts. Do not hold the switch to the “ON” position for more than 5 seconds as this can cause damage to the engine. Check to ensure fuel valve is in the ON position and if starting cold, move the choke lever to the “CLOSED” position. Reference the component diagram below for the location of these parts.

Remember to gradually move the choke lever back to the “open” position once the engine is running.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot Water Pressure
Washer-fig-16

HOT WATER OPERATION
Now that the unit is running, it is operating as a cold water pressure washer.
When you wish to switch to hot water, turn the burner switch to the “ON” position.

NOTICE: Upon initial start-up, water will begin heating up in approximately 20 seconds. It will reach maximum temperature within 2-1/2 minutes providing that the trigger is continuously pressed down. The burner will not fire when the trigger is released.

WARNING: The temperature of the water can become extremely hot during operation. Use caution when operating the spray gun.

APPLYING DETERGENT

NOTICE: This feature is designed for use with mild detergents only. Since the cleaning solution travels through the heat exchanger coil, DO NOT use corrosives as they will cause extensive damage as well as pose a considerable safety hazard.

  1. Prepare detergent solution according to label directions. Never pump acids, alkaline, abrasive fluids or solvents through the unit. Due to the unknown and often corrosive characteristics of many detergents commonly used in the pressure washer cleaning industry, it is recommended to use only mild detergents with this unit.
  2. Fully immerse the detergent strainer into the detergent solution.
  3. To apply solution, install the black soap nozzle to the tip of the spray gun, unlock the gun, and squeeze the trigger. After a few moments, a detergent/water mixture will exit the nozzle. Start spraying the lower portion of the surface being cleaned and move up, using long overlapping strokes. Applying from the bottom up helps avoid streaking. Allow everything to soak briefly.
  4. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight to minimize the chances of the detergent drying, which may result in damaged surfaces. Be certain to rinse a small section at a time.
  5. To rinse, lock the trigger gun in the “OFF” position. From here, securely place the white or green spray tip in the end of the spray gun. Unlock the trigger and spray. It will take about 30 seconds to purge all detergent from the line. For best rinsing results, start at the top and work down.
  6. Siphon a gallon of water through the low-pressure detergent injection system after each use. This prevents the possibility of corrosion or detergent residue causing mechanical problems during the next use.

SHUTTING THE UNIT DOWN

  1. Move the burner switch to the “OFF” position.
  2. Squeeze the trigger and discharge the water for three minutes to cool the heat exchanger and high pressure hose. Insufficient cool-down periods for the high pressure hose will cause excessive wear and eventual rupture of the hose.
  3. Do not close the choke to stop the engine. Backfire or engine damage may occur.
  4. Move the engine key switch to the OFF position.
  5. Turn off the water supply and pull the trigger of the gun to relieve trapped pressure.

Disconnect and drain the high pressure hose, gun, and lance. Wipe the unit clean and store in a non-
freezing environment.

STORAGE AND WINTERIZING

If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more than 30 days, you must prepare the engine and pump for long term storage. See the engine user manual for specific instructions regarding this.
When storing the unit for winter, it is important to ensure it is stored in the right environment. Ensure the storage area stays above freezing during cold weather, and try to limit the amount of dust gathered on the unit via a cover.

  WARNING

| Storage covers can be flammable.
•       DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot pressure washer.

•       Let equipment cool for at least 30 minutes before placing the cover on the equipment.

You will need to ensure that the fuel is drained from the engine prior to storage. For the steps required to do this, see the engine user manual.
Once the unit has been stored and the gasoline has been drained, the last thing to do is to winterize your pump. This can be done in one of two ways:

  • BE “Pump Saver” Solution (P/N: 85.490.046). This is an anti-freeze solution that is used before storing the unit. It coats to inside of the pump to ensure that any residual water doesn’t freeze. To use BE Pump Saver, follow the instructions written on the bottle. Water freezing in the pump will damage seals and other internal parts. Freezing damage is not covered by warranty.

    CAUTION

Be certain the hoses and spray gun are not attached to the pump during application of pump saver or use of the blowout tool. Having a hose attached greatly reduces the amount of water/debris removed from the pump and coil.
NOTICE

You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.
1.  Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and render your unit inoperable.

2.  Freezing damage is not covered under warranty.

MAINTENANCE

SPECIFIC MAINTENANCE

ENGINE: The engine instructions that accompany your unit detail specific procedures for the maintenance of the engine. Following the engine manufacturer’s recommendations will extend the engine’s life and ensure
the best possible performance.

PUMP: Change the pump oil after the first 50 hours of operation. After the initial change, every 3 months or 250-hour intervals are recommended. If oil appears dirty or milky, changes may be required in greater frequency. Use SAE 30 non-detergent pump oil and fill only to the center of the oil sight glass. DO NOT overfill.BE POWER EQUIPMENT HW3524HG12V Hot Water Pressure
Washer-fig-18

NOZZLE: Water flow through the spray nozzle will erode the orifice over time, making it larger. This will result in a reduction of pressure. Nozzles should be replaced whenever pressure is less than 85% of the maximum. The frequency of replacement will depend upon such variables as mineral content in the water and number of hours the nozzle is used. Every 3-6 months tends to be a standard interval for replacement.
