OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Check engine oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom
of the oil ller neck. Be sure the machine is level when checking the oil
level. (Refer to the engine's operating manual included with machine.)
We recommend that the oil be changed after the rst 5 hours of use, then
once every 50 hours. Note: Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor
to shut off engine. IMPORTANT! Do not run engine with high or low
oil levels as this will cause engine damage.
STEP 3: Connect garden hose to the
cold water source and turn water on
completely. Never use hot water.
STEP 5: Rotate the fuel shut-off valve to the "On" po-
sition. Slide the fuel valve lever to the "ON" position.
When the engine is not in use, leave the fuel valve in
the "OFF" position.
STEP 4: Trigger the spray gun to
eliminate trapped air then wait for a
steady ow of water to emerge from
the spray nozzle.
STEP 2: Fill gas tank with unleaded
gasoline. Do not use leaded gas-
oline. Caution: Read warnings
on pg. 4 and engine manual.
STEP 6: Pull the choke lever out to the "Choke" po-
sition (on a warm engine, leave the choke lever in, in
the run position). Push the choke lever to the "Closed"
position. To restart a warm engine, leave the choke
lever in the "Open" position.
