STORAGE
ENGINE
Consult the Engine Owners Manual for
the manufacturer's recommendations for
storage.
PUMP
The manufacturer recommends using
a pump protector/winterizer when
storing the unit for more than 30 days
and/or when freezing temperatures are
expected. If a pump
protector/winterizer is not available,
*RV antifreeze needs to be run through
the pump as outlined in the steps
below.
NOTE: Using a pump
protector/winterizer or *RV antifreeze is
to provide proper lubrication to the
internal seals of the pump regardless
of temperature or environment.
1. Obtain a funnel, six ounces of
*RV antifreeze, and 16 - 36 inches
of garden hose with a male hose
connector attached to one end.
Use only RV
antifreeze. Any other
antifreeze is corrosive and can
damage pump.
2. Disconnect spark plug wire.
3. Connect length of garden hose
to water inlet of pump.
4. Add *RV antifreeze to hose as
shown.
5. Pull engine starter rope slowly
several times until antifreeze
comes out of high pressure hose
connection of pump.
6. Remove garden hose from water
inlet of pump.
7. Reconnect spark plug wire.
*Windshield washer fluid may also be
used
PRESSURE WASHER
1. Drain all water from high pressure
hose, coil it, and store it in cradle
of the pressure washer handle.
2. Drain all water from spray gun and
wand by holding spray gun in a
vertical position with nozzle end
pointing down and squeezing
trigger. Store in gun holder.
3. Store chemical hose so it is
protected from damage.
4. If space is needed, remove
handles and replace as shown.
