OPERATING TIPS
BECOME FAMILIAR WITH YOUR MACHINE
1. Before beginning work, set aside enough time to familiarize yourself with this
machine’s cleaning rate and capacity along with all instructions and precautions
contained in this section, along with the Operating Instruction and Operating Controls
sections.
2. This unit is intended for various light to moderate cleaning applications. If deeper
cleaning is desired, it can be attained at times, however this is done at the expense
of speed. This unit is not intended for paint stripping or deep concrete cleaning
applications.
3. Clean a test area to satisfaction before proceeding with the entire area, as stated in
Cleaning Recommendations on the next page. Use this area to approximate the
amount of time required for the project. Be certain to factor in time for touch-ups and
cleanup after the general cleaning is finished.
4. This unit has several settings and adjustments that effect the speed of cleaning and
the water force applied to cleaning. Good guidelines to keep in mind are:
USE PROPER PRESSURE WASHER OPERATION TECHNIQUES
The machine may suddenly stop and require a rest period from time to time;
this is normal and does not indicate a problem
(see Troubleshooting, page 22).
However, certain use techniques may help reduce or even prevent the need for such rest
periods, increasing efficiency:
a. SHUT OFF THE MACHINE IF THE UNIT IS TO SIT IDLE FOR MORE THAN 2
MINUTES. Heat will build up within the unit as it draws current while
recirculating the water. If left for long enough, it will overload the circuit it is
powered by and trip the circuit breaker.
b. Do not release the trigger between sweeps. Release the trigger as few times
as possible during use. Interrupted or sporadic spraying will cause the unit to
heat up quickly and will increase the need for rest periods.
c. Make sure that all obstacles have been moved and the entire area is ready before
starting.
d. For small jobs, try to finish an entire portion of the job before taking a break.
IMPORTANT!
NEVER ALLOW THE UNIT TO SIT IDLE WITH THE
SWITCH ON FOR LONGER THAN TWO MINUTES.
