Grasp starter handle and pull slowly until you feel

HOW TO STOP YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER
Important: Do not run pump without the water supply
connected and turned on. You must follow this caution
or the pump will be damaged.
Move the Run/Stop switch to the "0" or OFF
position.
Simply shutting off the engine will not release
pressure in the system. Squeeze trigger on the
spray gun to relieve pressure in the hose.
Note: A small amount of water will squirt out when
you release the pressure.
Rotate the Dial-A-Cleaner
TM
selector knob to the
OFF position to prevent chemical leakage.
SIPHONING
We recommend that you DO NOT siphon standing
water for your water supply. Contaminated, brackish or
dirty water can damage the pump. Connect only to
household water supply.
TIPS
Never use the garden hose inlet to siphon
detergent or wax.
If you hold the spray nozzle too far away from the
object being cleaned, washing will not be as
effective.
Always store the cleaning system with the Dial-A-
Cleaner
TM
selector knob at the OFF position.
