rubber washer and water inlet filter. Refer to the
instruction sheet provided in the kit to service your unit's
o-rings. Note that not all of the parts in the kit will be used
on your unit.
To remove a worn or damaged o-ring:
• Use a small flathead screwdriver to get underneath the
o-ring and pry it off.

pressure washer for more than 30 days,follow this
procedure:

a pail of clean water while running pressure washer in
low pressure mode (adjustable nozzle in the forward
position). Flushfor one to two minutes.
2. Shutoff the engineand let it cool, then remove all
hoses.Disconnect spark plugwire from spark plug.
3. Empty the pump of all pumped liquids by pulling the
recoil handle about 6 times. This should remove most
of the liquid in the pump.

draw RVantifreeze (non-alcohol) into the pump by pouring
the solution into a 3-foot section of garden hose connected
to inlet adapter and pulling recoil handle twice.
