BASIC ELEMENTS OF A PRESSURE WASHER High Pressure Pump: Increases the pressure of the water supply. Engine: Drives the high pressure pump. High Pressure Hose: Carries the pressurized water from the pump to the gun and wand. Spray Gun: Connects with wand to control water flow rate, direction, and pressure.
Thermal Relief Valve In an effort to prevent 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.
For Quick-Connect Wands: Spray Nozzles Your pressure washer is equipped with up to five spray nozzles. Each nozzle is color coded and deliv- ers a specific spray pattern for a particular cleaning purpose. The size of the nozzle determines the size of the fan spray and the pressure out of the nozzle.
STARTING 1. Add fresh high quality unleaded gasoline. Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when filling fuel tank. Never fill fuel tank com- pletely. Fill tank to 1/2" below bottom of filler neck to provide space for fuel expansion.
SHUTTING DOWN 1. If you have siphoned chemicals, siphon a bucket of clean water through the chemical hose. NOTE: Failure to do so will cause damage to the pump. 2. Turn engine off. See Engine Owner’s Manual. NOTE: NEVER turn the water off with the engine running.
