Page 27: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE General Recommendations: Regular maintenance will improve the performance and extend the life of the pressure washer. The pressure washer’s warranty does not cover items that have been subjected to operator abuse or negligence. To receive full value from the warranty, the operator must maintain the pressure washer as instructed in this manual and in the engine manual, including proper storage as detailed in Winter Storage and Long Term Storage. -
Page 28: Pressure Washer Maintenance
Pressure Washer Maintenance Clean Debris Daily or before use, clean accumulated debris from cleaning system. Keep the unit clean at all times. Keep area around and behind muffler free from any combustible debris. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on the pressure washer. These openings must be kept clean and unobstructed. -
Page 29: Nozzle Maintenance
Check Spray Gun Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and make sure it is secure, and make sure the ‘safety lock’ is present and attach on the trigger, it helps to prevent any accidental jets when in operation. Replace spray gun immediately if the safety lock is damaged or not functioning. -
Page 30: Pump Maintenance
12. Use same nozzle maintenance with the Roto-clean. If pressure drops off check nozzle for wear. Nozzles should be replaced on a regular basis (suggestion: every month for machines in regular use, every three months for machines used intermittently). Using the machine with the incorrect nozzle size or worn nozzle will VOID WARRANTY and can be DANGEROUS to operator. -
Page 31: Checking The Oil Level
Checking the oil level Check the oil with the pump level and cold. Check the amount of oil through the level gauge (A). If necessary, top up with oil with the characteristics specified in the ‘lubricants table’. To top up with oil proceed as described below. -
Page 32: Lengthy Pump Lay-Offs
Lengthy pump lay-offs If the pump is to be unused for a long time, proceed as described below. 1. Run the pump with clean water for a few minutes. 2. Operate the pump without water for 10 seconds with the end of the delivery pipeline open to empty the pump and the delivery circuit and prevent scaling. -
Page 33: Roto-Clean Maintenance
Roto-clean Maintenance The Roto-clean must be maintained to ensure correct function and longevity of life. There are two nozzles attached and they need to be checked before every use and are similar to nozzle maintenance of the spray gun. We recommend that you supply grease to the rotary head every 30 – 40 hours of use (if frequent usage, grease every 20-30 hours of operation). -
Page 34: Storage
STORAGE Long term storage instructions (fuel in tank) Gasoline fuel can become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel causes acid and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or crucial carburetor parts. To keep fuel fresh, add a fuel stabiliser liquid additive to fuel. The fuel stabiliser is available at most auto parts stores. - Page 35 Storage of Pressure washer 1. Drain all water from high pressure line, coil it and store it in cradle of pressure washer handle. 2. Drain all water from spray gun and spray wand by holding spray gun in vertical position with nozzle pointed downward. Squeeze trigger to remove fluids from spray gun and spray wand.
- Page 36 Charge the battery For pressure washer equipped with batteries for electric starting, proper battery maintenance and storage should be followed. An automatic battery charger with automatic trickle charging capability should be used to charge the battery. Maximum charging rate should not exceed 1.5amps. Follow the instructions included with the battery charger.
