CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING BATTERY
See Figures 4 - 5.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or explosion, do not
short circuit the battery terminals or charge in a sealed
container. Keep sparks and flame away. Do not use
metal tools for connections and keep metal objects away
from the battery terminals. Metal objects can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together can cause sparks, burns, or
a fire.
The battery terminal design does not require the use of tools
when installing or removing battery wires. All battery wires
must be connected before the electric start feature of the
pressure washer can be operated.
To connect the battery:
 Remove the cap from the positive (+) terminal.
 Connect the red female wire to the red male wire on the
positive (+) terminal.
NOTE: The black male, black female, and red male wires
have been preinstalled.
To replace the battery:
 Drain lubricant and fuel from the pressure washer into
containers approved for lubricant and gasoline.
 Disconnect the black wires from the battery's negative
(–) terminal, first the female then the male wire.
 Disconnect the red wires from the battery's positive (+)
terminal, first the female then the male wire.
 Carefully lay the pressure washer down so that it rests
on its handle.
NOTE: Do not attempt to access the battery by tilting
the unit as this may allow the pressure washer to fall
unexpectedly.
 Using a 10 mm wrench, remove the retaining bolt securing
the battery holder to the battery bracket. Lift and slide
the battery holder to the left until it disengages from the
bracket.
 Remove the old battery and dispose of according to local
and state regulations. Always abide by the safety warnings
provided with the battery.
