HOW TO USE YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER
If you have any problems operating your pressure
washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-222-3136.
To Start Your Pressure
Washer
The best way to start your engine-powered
pressure
washer for the first time is to follow these instructions
step-by-step. This starting information also applies
whenever you start the engine after you have let the
pressure washer sit idle for at least a day.
•
Place the pressure washer in an area close
enough to an outside water source capable of
supplying water at a flow rate greater than
2.2 gallons per minute.
•
Check that the high pressure hose is tightly
connected to the spray gun and to the pump. See
"Assembling Your Pressure Washer" (page 5) for
illustrations.
•
Make sure unit is in a level position.
•
Connect the garden hose to the water inlet on the
pressure washer pump. Turn on the water.

AUTION:
Do Not run the pump without the
water supply connected and turned on. You
must follow this caution or the pump will be
damaged.
•
Squeeze trigger on gun to purge pump system of
air and impurities.
•
Attach nozzle extension to spray gun. Tighten by
hand.

Choose the nozzle you want to use and insert it
into the nozzle extension. See "How to Use the
Nozzles".

Move the choke knob to the "Choke" position.
NOTE: For a warm engine, be sure the choke knob is
in the "Run" position.

some resistance, then pull briskly.

and squeeze trigger on gun to release pump
pressure. Engage safety latch and repeat previous
two steps.

If the choke knob was placed in the "Choke"
position to start the engine, move it slowly to the
"Run" position as the engine warms up enough to
run smoothly.
