  SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Please read this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate, or install the product.
WARNING: This unit was designed for specific applications. It should not be modified and/or used for any application other than that which it was designed.
NOTICE: Always store your pressure washer in a location where the temperature will not fall below 4 °C. Freeze damage is not covered by the warranty.

WARNING: This product and its exhaust can expose you to chemicals including lead and lead compounds, and carbon monoxide, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

1. Do not touch plug or outlet with wet hands.

2. Avoid accidental starts. Move the switch on unit to OFF position before connecting or disconnecting the cord to the electrical outlets.

3. Water spray must never be directed towards any electric wiring or directly towards the pressure washer machine itself or fatal electric shock may occur.

4. Never carry your pressure washer by the cord. Do not pull on the cord to disconnect from the outlet.

5. To prevent damage, the cord should not be crushed, or placed next to sharp objects or near a heat source.

6. Check power cords before using. Damaged cords can reduce the performance of the pressure washer or cause a fatal electrical shock

7. The narrow pin point stream is very powerful. It is not recommended for use on painted surfaces, wood surfaces or items attached with an adhesive backing.

SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCE
In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double- insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated product is marked with the words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED.” The symbol may also be marked on the product .

Additional Safety Information

WARNING: Never modify the power tool or any part of it. Damage or personal injury could result.
WARNING: ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED

SAFETY EQUIPMENT:

• ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3),

• ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection,

• NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection.
  WARNING: Some dust contains chemicals known to State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

  • compounds in fertilizers,
  • compounds in insecticides, herbicides and pesticides,
  • arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
    To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, wear approved safety equipment such as dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
    WARNING: Use of this tool can generate and/ or disperse dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH /OSHA-approved respiratory protection appropriate for dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
    WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss.

• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is, 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The lower the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Pressure Washing

Preparing Surfaces for Cleaning

• Remove objects from the area which could create a hazard such as children’s toys or outdoor furniture.
• Ensure that all doors and windows are closed tight. Protect all plants and trees in the adjacent area with a drop cloth ensuring that they will not be harmed by any overspray.
• Pre-rinse the cleaning area with fresh water.
• Use only detergents formulated for pressure washers.
• Always test detergent in an inconspicuous area before use.

Preparing Pressure Washer Unit for Use (Fig. A)
DANGER: Risk of fluid injection and laceration. When using the high- pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high-pressure spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with any pets or animals. Serious injury will occur.

CAUTION: Before operation:

• Connect the water supply to the pressure washer. For instructions on connecting the water supply to the pressure washer, please refer to Attaching Garden Hose under Assembly and Adjustments.
• Connect the high-pressure hose to the pressure washer and the pressure wand. For instructions on connecting the high-pressure hose to the pressure washer and pressure wand, please refer to Attaching High-Pressure Hose under Assembly and Adjustments.

Preparing Spray Handle
IMPORTANT: Before turning on the pressure washer unit, disengage the trigger lock-off 6 and squeeze the trigger 7 .
Hold the trigger for 30 seconds to purge the system of air. If air is still found in the water stream, continue to run water through the spray handle.

1. Disengage the trigger lock-off 6.
2. Squeeze the trigger 7.

Cleaning a Surface

• To start the pressure washer, press the ON button 9 .
• The best angle for spraying water against a cleaning surface is 45°.

Spraying head on tends to cause dirt particles to imbed in the surface. When working on vertical surfaces, it is best to apply detergent starting at the bottom and working upwards which will prevent the detergent from sliding down and causing streaks.
To disengage the spray handle, release the trigger.
NOTE: Excessive pump pressure may be the result of a clogged nozzle or brass coupling. Always turn OFF the pressure washer unit and unplug the unit before attempting to unclog a nozzle or brass coupler.

Moving the Pressure Washer (Fig. A)

1. Shut OFF the pressure washer unit 8 and turn OFF the water supply.
2. Point the spray wand 2 in a safe direction and pull the trigger 7 to release remaining water pressure.
3. When the spray wand is completely empty, carry the pressure washer by the handle 11 . Shutdown (Fig. A)
4. To stop the pressure washer, press the OFF button 10 and unplug the cord from the outlet.
5. Turn OFF water at the faucet.
6. Discharge residual pressure by squeezing the trigger 7 until no more water comes out of the spray wand 2 .
7. Engage the spray handle lock-off 6 .
8. Disconnect the garden hose from the water intake 17 .
9. Disconnect the high pressure hose 1 from the high pressure water outlet 16 and drain hose.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from power source before making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.

Cleaning
WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when performing this procedure.

Use a cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
Nozzle (Fig. A)
If the nozzle becomes clogged with foreign materials, such as dirt, excessive pressure may develop. If the nozzle becomes partially clogged or restricted, the pump pressure will pulsate. Clean the nozzle immediately using the nozzle cleaner.

1. Shut OFF the pressure washer unit 8 and turn OFF the water supply.
2. Pull trigger 7 on spray handle 4 to relieve any water pressure.
3. Remove the nozzle from the spray wand 2 by pulling the quick connect collar 3 toward the spray wand.
4. Using the spray tip cleaning tool, unclog any debris from the nozzle.
5. Run water from a faucet or garden hose through the nozzle. Soap Bottle (Fig. A, H)
