• Squeeze the trigger on the gun and hold.
• When the water supply is steady and constant, engage the trigger lock and install the
nozzle.
NOZZLE MAINTENANCE
A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun trigger may be caused by
excessive pump pressure. The principal cause of excessive pump pressure is a nozzle
clogged or restricted with foreign materials, such as dirt, etc. To correct the problem,
immediately clean the nozzle by needle provided with your pressure washer and follow
these instructions:
1. Shut off (O) the engine and turn off the water supply.
2. ALWAYS point spray gun at a safety direction, release trigger lock and squeeze spray
gun trigger to release retained high water pressure.
3. Remove the nozzle from the end of the spray wand.
4. Use the needle to free any foreign material clogging or restricting the nozzle.
5. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris
by back flushing water through the nozzle. Back
flush between 30 to 60 seconds.
6. Reinstall the nozzle to the wand with spray gun.
7. Make sure garden hose is connected to water
inlet. Check that high pressure hose is connected
to spray gun and pump. Turn on water.
8. Start engine following instructions "How to Start Your Pressure Washer" .
9. Test pressure washer by operating with each quick connect nozzle.
O-RING MAINTENANCE
Through the normal operation of your pressure washer, O-rings keep the connections
of the hoses and spray gun tight and leak-free. They may become worn or damaged
with use. You can purchase the replacement O-rings at the pressure washer help line
1-833-818-4111.
WARNING! The high pressure stream of water that this pressure washer
produces could cut through skin and its underlying tissues, resulting in serious
injury and possible amputation.
• NEVER repair leaking connections with sealant of any kind. Replace O-ring
or seal.
