cannot be observed without partial engine disassembly. For
this reason, we recommend you have an qualified Sears
service dealer clean the cooling system per recommended
intervals (see MaintenanceSchedule). Equally important is to
keeptop of engine free from debris. See CleanDebris.

The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin and its
_ nderlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
)ossible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when
engine is stopped and water is disconnected,
which can cause injury.

outlet on pump. Drain water from hose, gun, and nozzle
extension. Use a rag to wipe off the hose.
