OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1: Check engine oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom of
the oil filler neck. Be sure the machine is level when checking the oil level.
(Refer to the engine's operating manual included with machine.) We recom-
mend that the oil be changed after the first 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 wa-
ter on completely. Never use hot
water.
STEP 5: Rotate the fuel shut-off
valve to the "On" position. 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 flow of water to emerge from
the spray nozzle.
STEP 2: Fill gas tank with unleaded
gasoline. Do not use leaded gaso-
line.
STEP 6: Pull the choke lever out to the "Choke" posi-
tion (on a warm engine, leave the choke lever in the run
position). Push the choke lever to the "Closed" posi-
tion. To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever in
the "Open" position.
