BASIC ELEMENTS OF A PRESSURE WASHER

  • High Pressure Pump (located inside the shroud): Increases the pressure of the water supply.

  • Engine: Drives the high pressure pump.
    High Pressure Hose: Carries the pressurized water from the pump to the gun and spray wand.

  • Spray Gun: Connects with spray wand to control water flow rate, direction, and pressure.

  • Multi-Adjustable Spray Wand: Allows the user to use high or low pressure and adjusts from a pencil stream (0°) to a wide angle fan
    spray (40°). See How To Use Wand instructions in this section.

  • Chemical Hose (not shown): Feeds cleaning agents into the pump to mix with the water. See How To Apply Chemicals/Cleaning Solvents instructions in this section.

BASIC ELEMENTS OF AN ENGINE
Refer to the engine manual for location and operation of engine controls.

  • Choke Control: Opens and closes carburetor choke valve.
  • Starter Grip: Pulling starter grip operates recoil starter to crank engine.
  • Fuel Valve Lever: Opens/closes connection between fuel tank and carburetor.
  • Engine Switch: Enables and disables ignition system.

PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY

  • PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.

  • GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of measure for the fl ow rate of water.

  • CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by PSI. GPM x PSI = CU

  • Bypass Mode : Allows water to recirculate within pump when the gun trigger is not pulled.
    CAUTION : Allowing the unit to run for more than two minutes without the gun trigger pulled could cause overheating and damage to the pump.

  • Chemical Injection System: Mixes cleaners or cleaning solvents with the water to improve cleaning effectiveness.

  • Water Supply: All pressure washers must have a source of water. The minimum requirements for a water supply are 20 PSI and 5 gallons per minute.

PRESSURE WASHER OPERATING FEATURES PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
The pressure setting is preset at the factory to achieve optimum pressure and cleaning. If you need to lower the pressure, it can be accomplished by these methods.

  1. Back away from the sur face to be cleaned. The further away you are, the less the pressure will be on the surface to be cleaned.
  2. Rotate the nozzle at the end of the multi-adjustable spray wand to widen the fan spray. The wider fan spray will minimize the pressure on the surface to be cleaned.

CAUTION : DO NOT attempt to increase pump pressure. A higher pressure setting than the factory set pressure may damage pump.
HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND
Your pressure washer is equipped with a multi-adjustable spray wand with both high and low pressure settings. The high pressure setting is for cleaning and rinsing, the low pressure setting is for applying chemicals or cleaning solutions to surfaces.
DANGER : Risk of fluid injection. Do not direct discharge stream toward persons, unprotected skin, eyes or any pets or animals. Serious injury will occur.
For high pressure operation, pull back the nozzle of the multi-adjustable spray wand as shown.

The nozzle at the end of the multi-adjustable spray wand can be rotated to change the high pressure spray pattern from a 0º pencil stream to a 40º fan spray, as shown. Markings have been placed on the nozzle to help you select the spray pattern.
For low pressure operation, extend the nozzle of the multi-adjustable spray wand as shown.

CAUTION :
The powerful spray from your pressure washer is capable of causing damage to surfaces such as wood, glass, automobile paint, auto striping and trim, and delicate objects such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check the item to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage from the force of the spray.
HOW TO APPLYCHEMICALS/CLEANINGSOLVENTS
Applying chemicals or cleaning solvents is a low pressure operation.
NOTE : Use only soaps and chemicals designed for pressure washer use. Do not use bleach.
To Apply chemicals:

  1. Press chemical hose onto barbed fitting located near high pressure hose connection of pump as shown.

  2. Place other end of chemical hose with filter on it into container holding chemical/cleaning solution.
    NOTE : For every 7 gallons of water pumped 1 gallon of chemical/cleaning solution will be used.

  3. Set multi-adjustable nozzle to low pressure setting. See How To Use Wand paragraph in this section.

  4. After use of chemicals, place chemical hose into container of clean water and draw
    clean water through chemical injection system to rinse system thoroughly. If chemicals remain in the pump it could be damaged. Pumps damaged due to chemicals will not be covered under warranty.
    NOTE : Chemicals and soaps will not siphon when spray wand is in the high pressure setting.

WARNING:
