INSTALLATION & PREPARATION
INSTRUCTIONS
Unloader
Adjustable
The unloader valve on your machine is equipped with
an adjustment knob to adjust the pressure. Should
less pressure be required, simply turn the adjustment
knob counterclockwise. To set back to maximum, turn
adjustment knob completely clockwise. Do not over-
tighten.
Do not overtighten the unloader. Breakage could
result in immediate loss of water pressure and
costly repairs.
Thermal Relief Valve
To ensure the water temperature does not exceed
acceptable levels, never allow the pressure washer to
operate in the bypass mode (with the unit running and
the trigger gun closed) for more than three minutes.
NOTICE
A "thermal relief valve" has been added to this unit to
protect the pump. It may begin to open and release
water if the water temperature in the pump has ex-
ceeded 140°F. This will allow fresh, cool water to enter
the system.
Pre-Start Inspection Procedures
Before starting the unit, perform the following proce-
dures:
1. Check the oil level in the pump and engine.
2. Inspect the water inlet strainer. Clean or replace if
necessary. See "Water Supply" pg. 9.
3. Check all hose connections to ensure they are securely
tightened. See "Water Supply" pg. 9.
Inspect for system fuel leaks. If a fuel leak is found, do
not start unit. See "Fire & Ventilation Precautions" pg.
4. Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that
the mechanical problems are corrected prior to opera-
tion of the unit. If you require service, contact Graco
Customer Service.
Inspect high pressure hoses for kinking, cuts and leaks.
If a cut or leak is found, do not use hose. Replace hose
before starting unit. See "Miscellaneous Safety Precau-
tions" pg. 5. Be sure that all damaged parts are re-
placed and that the mechanical problems are corrected
prior to operation of the unit. If you require service,
contact Graco Customer Service.
