CONNECTING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE TO
THE PUMP
See Figure 8.
Align the collar on the threaded nipple on the pump.
Turn the collar clockwise to tighten the hose securely to
the pump.
Pull on the hose to be certain it is properly secured.
CAUTION:
Do not run the pressure washer pump without water sup-
ply connected and turned on, as this may damage the
high pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely
unwind the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the
hose is not being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other
objects that may lessen or prevent water flow to the
pressure washer.
CONNECTING THE GARDEN HOSE TO THE
PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 9.
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:
Straighten the garden hose.
NOTE: There must be a minimum of 10 feet of unrestricted
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.
Wrap the garden hose hanger strap around the garden
hose to keep it close to the handle and out of the way.
INSTALLING SURFACE CLEANER
See Figures 10 - 11.
To install the surface cleaner on the pressure washer:
Connect the lower end of the high pressure water supply
hose to the surface cleaner by inserting the deck inlet plug
into the quick connect coupler on the water supply hose.
Push ends together until coupler snaps into position.
Slide surface cleaner and pressure washer housing
together until the connection is secure.
Remove trigger handle from the holders. Feed high pres-
sure water hose through bottom trigger handle holder.
Attach upper end of high pressure water supply hose into
trigger handle outlet couple.
Secure hose with hook and loop strap.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injection injury, only use the surface
cleaner on flat, horizontal surfaces. Never lift the surface
cleaner from the cleaning surface while operating the
pressure washer.
