• Move the throttle lever to the “Fast” position
(Figure 8).
• To start a cold engine, move the choke lever to the
“Closed” position. To restart a warm engine, leave
the choke lever in the “Open” position (Figure 9).
• Set the engine switch to the “On” position (Figure 10).
• Grasp starter grip and pull slowly until you feel some
resistance. Then pull cord out with rapid full arm stroke.
Let rope return slowly. Do Not let rope “snap back”
against starter.
• If the choke lever has been moved to the “Closed”
position to start the engine, gradually move it to the
“Open” position as the engine warms up.
• Select and insert a quick-connect nozzle into the nozzle
extension.
How to Stop Your Pressure Washer
• Move the throttle lever to the “Slow” position.
• Wait for the engine to idle down.
• Move the engine switch to the “Off” position.
• Simply shutting off the engine will not release pressure in
the system. Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to
relieve pressure in the hose.
How to Use the Nozzles
If you have any problems operating your pressure washer,
please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-270-1408.
DANGER! Never exchange nozzles without
locking the safety latch on the trigger.
The quick–connect on the nozzle extension allows you to
switch between five different nozzles. The nozzles vary the
spray pattern as shown on the next page (Figure 11).
Follow these instructions to change nozzles:
• Engage the safety latch on the spray gun.
• Pull back the collar on the quick–connect and pull the
current nozzle off. Store the nozzle in the space
provided on the handles storage panel.
NOTE: For a more gentle rinse, select the white 40° or
green 25° nozzle. To scour the surface, select the yellow
15° or red 0° nozzle. To apply chemical, select the black
nozzle.
