CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE TO THE
PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 7.
CAUTION:
Always observe all local regulations when connnecting
hoses to the water main. Some areas have restrictions
against connecting directly to public drinking water sup-
ply to prevent the feedback of chemicals into the drinking
water supply. Direct connection through a receiver tank
or backflow preventer is usually permitted.
The water supply must come from a water main. NEVER
use hot water or water from pools, lakes, etc. Before
connectingthegardenhosetothepressurewasher:
Run water through the hose for 30 seconds to clean any
debris from the hose.
Inspect the screen in the water intake.
If the screen is damaged, do not use the machine until
the screen has been replaced.
If the screen is dirty, clean it before connecting the garden
hose to the machine.
To connect the garden hose to the machine:
Uncoil the garden hose.
NOTE: There must be a minimum of 10 feet of unre-
stricted hose between the pressure washer intake and
the hose faucet or shut off valve (such as a “Y” shut off
connector).
With the hose faucet turned completely off, attach the
end of the garden hose to the water intake. Tighten by
hand.

See Figure 8.
Before detergent can be used with this machine, the injection
hose must be attached.
