O–Ring Maintenance
O-Rings keep the connections of the hoses and spray gun
tight and leak–free.Through normal operation of the
pressure washer, they may become worn or damaged.
An O–Ring Maintenance Kit is provided with the pressure
washer which includes replacement o-rings, rubber washer
and water inlet filter. Refer to the instruction sheet
provided in the kit to service the o-rings. Note that not all
of the parts in the kit will be used on your unit.
To remove a worn or damaged o–ring; use a small flathead
screwdriver to get underneath the o-ring and pry it off.

If you used the chemical injection hose, you must flush it
with clean water before stopping the engine.

water.

relieve the pressure in the hose.
