Operation
1. SURFACE PREPARATION
The following cleaning procedure will
help you organize your cleaning task
and ensures that you will achieve the
best results in the shortest amount of
time. Remember to use the spraying /
cleaning techniques mentioned in the
following section.
Before starting a pressure washer
cleaning job, prepare the surface
you intend to clean. Clear furniture
from the area and make sure that all
windows and doors are closed tightly.
Also, protect all plants and trees near
the cleaning area with a drop cloth. A
covering ensures that your plants won’t
be sprayed by the detergents.
2. START UP
ALWAYS use the following start up
procedure to ensure that the unit is
started safely and properly.
If water has
frozen in the
pressure washer, thaw the pressure
washer in a warm room before
starting. DO NOT pour hot water
on or into the pump; internal parts
will be damaged.
1. Check engine oil levels. Add oil as
necessary.
2. Check fuel level. Add unleaded
gasoline (rated 86 octane or higher)
as required.
DO NOT refuel a
hot engine.

a fire. Use only fresh, clean regular
or unleaded gasoline. Close the
fuel shutoff valve during refueling.

when connecting to a fresh water
supply. Install a backflow preventer
upstream from the pump if
necessary.
