MAINTENANCE
STORING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 27.
Store the pressure washer with the gas tank empty by either
draining the tank or running the pressure washer until the
gas runs out. Allow 30 minutes of “cool down” time before
storing the machine. Store in a dry, covered area where the
weather can’t damage it.
It is important to store this product in a frost-free area. Always
empty water from all hoses, the pump, and the detergent
container before storing.
NOTE: Use of a fuel stabilizer and pump saver will give you
better performance and increase the life of the machine.
Trigger and auxiliary handles:
Remove the auxiliary handle from the trigger handle and
store the auxiliary handle in the storage hole on the side of
the trigger handle.
Remove the spray wand from the trigger handle by turning
the connector counterclockwise. Store the unassembled
spray wand in the spray wand storage area.
Discharge Fuel:
Drain the fuel tank completely. Stored gas can go stale in
30 days.
Engine Oil:
Drain the oil and replace with fresh, clean oil.
Spark Plug:
Disconnect spark plug wire and remove the spark plug.
Pour about a teaspoon of clean, air-cooled, four-cycle
oil through the spark plug hole into the combustion
chamber.
Leaving the spark plug out, pull the starter cord two or
three times to coat the inside of the cylinder wall.
Inspect the spark plug and clean or replace, as neces-
sary.
Reinstall the spark plug, but leave the spark plug wire
disconnected.
Air Filter:
Clean the air filter.
Hoses and Pump:
Flush the injection hose with clean water for 1-2 minutes.
Remove all hoses. Empty the pump by pulling on the recoil
starter about 6 times. This should remove most of the liquid
from the pump.
PREPARING FOR USE AFTER STORAGE
Pull the recoil starter grip three or four times to clean oil
from the combustion chamber.
Remove spark plug from the cylinder. Wipe oil from the
spark plug and return it to the cylinder.
Reconnect the spark plug wire.
Refuel the machine as described earlier in the operator’s
manual.

PUMP MAINTENANCE
We recommend having the pump lubricant changed every
200 hours to ensure longer life of the machine. This service
should be performed by an authorized service center.
