AFTER EACH USE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump
parts and "freeze" pump action. Follow these
procedures after every use:
1.
Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter
into a pail of clean water while running pressure
washer in low pressure mode. Flush for one to two
minutes.
2.
Shut off engine, let it cool, then remove all hoses.
3.
Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.
4.
Empty pump of all liquids by pulling recoil handle
about 6 times. This should remove most liquid in
pump.
5.
if storing for more than 30 days see "Long Term
Storage" on next page.
6.
Coil high pressure hose and inspect it for damage.
Cuts in hose or fraying could result in leaks and
loss of pressure. Should any damage be found,
replace hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a
damaged hose. Replace hose with genuine Sears
part.
7.
Disconnect hose from spray gun and high
pressure outlet on pump. Drain water from hose,
gun, and nozzle extension. Use a rag to wipe off
hose.
8.
Reconnect spark plug wire to spark plug.
9.
Store unit in a clean, dry area.
