1. Verify that the RED vented plug is installed in pressure washer pump
as shown in Fig 1.
2. Before first use, check engine and pump oil levels.
Note: For shipping purposes, engine oil has not been added.
Before each use, check engine oil level by unscrewing the oil dipstick.
Add motor oil (consult Honda manual for correct oil grade) as required
to bring to proper level, approximately mid-way on dipstick.
3. Check water supply volume. To operate correctly, the unit requires a
water supply 25% greater than the units output.
( i.e. Model 3000 = 5 GPM, 2700 = 3 GPM,
2500 = 4.5 GPM, 2000 = 3.75 GPM of water flow ).
To test water supply output;
a) Turn water flow to full maximum output.
b) Place a 5 gallon pail or container under water flow for exactly 1 minute
( 60 seconds).
c) Measure contents to determine water flow.
4. Connect a standard garden hose to the water inlet or
bottom connection on the pump head ( Female hose
connector ). Fig. 2.
5. Connect the high pressure hose to the water “Outlet”
or upper connection on the pump head.
( Male quick connect nipple). Fig. 2.
6. Turn the unloader knob on top of the pump head counter- clockwise to
reduce the pressure prior to starting the machine.
7. Select the desired tip for the job. Insert tip into wand ( quick-connect
fittings ). See page 6.
