Chemicals and Cleaning Solvents
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 AND SOLVENTS
1. Press chemical hose (S) onto barbed
S
fitting located near high pressure hose
connection of pump as shown.
2. Place the other end of chemical hose
with filter on it into the container holding
chemical/cleaning solution.
NOTE: For every 7 gallons of water
pumped 1 gallon of chemical/cleaning solution will be used.
3. Install low-pressure (black) nozzle into quick connect fitting of spray
wand, refer Spray Wand Nozzles.
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.
Starting
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, read the pressure washer
instruction manual and the engine instruction manual before starting
pressure washer.
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.
Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high
enough to penetrate human and animal flesh, which could result
in amputation or other serious injury. Leaks caused by loose fit-
tings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection injuries.
DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a
physician immediately!
WARNING: Risk of fire, asphyxiation and burning. NEVER fill fuel tank
when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when filling fuel tank.
NEVER
fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" (12.7 mm) below
bottom of filler neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any
fuel spillage from engine and equipment before starting engine.
NEVER run engine indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated
areas. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless
and deadly gas.
DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine
muffler during or immediately after use of your pressure
washer. Damage to hoses from contact with hot engine
surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.
CAUTION: NEVER pull water supply hose to move pressure washer.
This could damage hose and/or pump inlet.
DO NOT use hot water, use cold water only.
