GENERAL MAINTENANCE
RECOMMENDATIONS
The pressure washer warranty does not cover items
that have been subjected to operator abuse or
negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the
operator must maintain the high pressure washer as
instructed in this manual.
Some adjustments will need to be made periodically
to properly maintain your high pressure washer.
All maintenance in this manual and the engine
owners manual should be made at least once each
season.
Once a year you should clean or replace the spark
plug, clean or replace the air filter and check the
spray gun and adjustable nozzle extension assembly
for wear. A new spark plug and clean air filter assure
proper fuel-air mixture and help your engine run
better and last longer. Please refer to your engine
owners manual for more details.

Check in-line filter for damage.

MAINTENANCE
Check and Clean Inlet Screen
Examine the screen on the water inlet. Clean it if the
screen is clogged or replace it if screen is damaged.
Check High Pressure Hose
The high pressure hose can develop leaks from wear,
kinking, or abuse. Inspect the hose each time before
using it. Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of
cover, damage or movement of couplings. If any of
these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately.
WARNING! Water spraying from a leak is
capable of injecting material into skin. Inspect
hose each time before using it. Never repair a
high pressure hose. Replace it with another
hose that exceeds the maximum pressure rating
of your pressure washer.
Check Detergent Siphoning Tube
Examine the filter on the detergent tube and clean if
clogged. The tube should fit tightly on the barbed
fitting. Examine the tube for leaks or tears. Replace
the filter or tube if either is damaged.
Check Gun and Adjustable Nozzle
Extension
Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and
make sure it is secure. Test the trigger by pressing it
and making sure it springs back into place when you
release it. Put the safety latch in the ON position and
test the trigger. You should not be able to press the
trigger.
Purge Pump of Air and
Contaminants
To remove air from the pump, follow these steps:
Set up the pressure washer as described in
Preparing Pressure Washer For Use (page 5).
Connect the water supply and turn water on.
Pull the trigger on the spray gun and hold.
