Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray
gun, circulating water in the pump can reach
temperatures between 140-145°F. The automatic cool
down system engages at this temperature and cools
the pump by discharging the warm water onto the
ground, preventing internal pump damage.
How to Use the Hose Reel
Your pressure washer is equipped with a hose reel
that is designed to store your hose when unit is not in
use. These instructions are for short term storage
only. For long term storage see "Storage" on page 15.
After each use:
• Disconnect hose from gun and high pressure outlet
on pump.
• Drain water from hose.
• Slide one end of the hose into the hole on the hose
reel. Turn the hose reel with the handle to coil the
hose onto the reel.
• Push the other end of the hose into the clip on the
side of your unit.
IMPORTANT: Do Not use your pressure washer with
the hose coiled onto the hose reel. The hose reel is for
storage purposes only.
