Getting Started

IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment
will assure more satisfactory performance, longer
service life and lower maintenance cost.
WARNING: If connection is made to a potable wa-
ter system, the system shall be protected against
backflow.
The pressure washer should be run on a level surface
where it is not readily influenced by outside sources
such as strong winds, freezing temperatures, rain, etc.
The pressure washer should be located to assure easy
access for filling of fluids, adjustments and maintenance.
Normal precautions should be taken by the operator to
prevent moisture from reaching the pressure washer. It is
recommended that a partition be made between the wash
area and the pressure washer to prevent direct spray from
the wand coming in contact with the pressure washer.
Moisture reaching the equipment will reduce the pressure
washer's life. All installations should comply with the local
codes covering such installations.
Venting
CAUTION: All venting must be in accordance with ap-
plicable federal and state laws, and local ordinances.
Consult local heating contractors.
If the pressure washer is to be used in an enclosed area,
a flue must be installed to vent burner exhaust to the
outside atmosphere. Exhaust gases should not be vented
into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of a building.
Be sure the flue is the same size as the burner exhaust
vent on the pressure washer lid. Poor draft will cause the
pressure washer to soot and not operate properly. When
selecting the location for installation, beware of poorly
ventilated locations or areas where exhaust fans may
cause an insufficient supply of oxygen. Proper combustion
can only be obtained when there is a sufficient supply of
oxygen available for the amount of fuel being burned. If it is
necessary to install the machine in a poorly ventilated area,
outside fresh air may have to be piped to the burner and a
fan installed to bring sufficient air into the machine. Locate
the pressure washer so that the flue will be as straight as
possible and protrude through the roof at a proper height
and location to provide adequate draft.

Wand Assembly
Note: This product is labeled of outdoor use only and
should be operated outdoors. It is not recommended to
operate indoors. If under certain conditions that make
it impossible to operate outdoors you can operate
indoor using a hood vent or venting. Venting can
cause restriction of air flow through the combustion
chamber causing excessive soot. Use a larger vent
size then the exhaust stack to prevent restriction and
contact the local servicing dealer to adjust the air
mixture after installation of vent.
