PREPARING THE UNIT
FOR STORAGE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump parts and
“freeze” pump action. If you do not plan to use the
pressure washer for more than 30 days, follow this
procedure:
1. Flush chemical injection hose by placing filter into a pail
of clean water while running pressure washer in low
pressure mode. Flush for one to two minutes.
2. Shut off engine and let it cool, then remove high
pressure and garden hoses. Disconnect spark plug wire
from spark plug.
3. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil
handle about 6 times.This should remove most liquid
from pump.
4. Draw RV antifreeze (non-alcohol) into pump by
pouring the solution into a 3-foot section of garden
hose connected to inlet adapter and pulling recoil
handle twice.
If available, use PumpSaver in place of RV antifreeze and
follow package instructions.
5. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
