Checking the fuel level.
1. To check the fuel level open the fuel tank cap.
2. Just inside the fuel tank is a fuel strainer, check this
filter periodically and remove any contaminants which
may have accumulated.
3. Refuel in a well-ventilated area before starting the engine.
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool. Refuel carefully to
avoid spilling fuel. DO NOT fill above the fuel strainer shoulder.
4. After refueling, replace and tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
Note: For any further information please use the engine manual for reference.
Always refuel in a well ventilated area away from any heat sources.
Allow the unit to cool down before refuelling.
DO NOT leave fuel within the reach of children.
Pressure regulator.
When supplied the pressure regulator may be set to
minimum.
Turn the pressure regulator on the pump fully
clockwise to allow water pressure to build up when
the pressure washer is running.
You can reduce the pressure to the desired level to
suit the work application
Pump oil.
The pump is sealed and should not require attention except when unit is serviced.
Pressure washer terminology.
PSI
= Pounds per square inch, the unit of measurement for water pressure.
GPM = Gallons per minute.
Bypass mode.
In bypass mode, the pump recirculates the water because the trigger of the spray gun is
not being pulled. If unit is left in bypass mode for more than two minutes, the water
temperature will rise to a dangerous level and could damage internal components of the
pump.
NOTE: Any damage to pump due to these causes will not be covered under
warranty.
Thermal Relief Valve.
In an effort to prevent extreme damage, pumps are equipped with a thermal relief valve.
This valve will open when the temperature inside the pump rises too high. This valve will
then release a gush of water in an effort to lower the temperature inside the pump.
Immediately after this occurs, the valve will close.
Chemical Injection System.
Mixes cleaners or cleaning solvents with the pressurised water to improve cleaning
effectiveness.
