  • Page 4: Components & Controls

    3. COMPONENTS & CONTROLS 3.1 HOW THE PRESSURE WASHER WORKS The gas engine powers the plunger piston pump to pressurize the incoming water supplied by a standard garden hose. The pressurized water flows through an operator controlled unloader valve to set the system pressure.

  • Page 5: Controls

    3.2 CONTROLS 1. Engine Controls – See Engine Manual 2. Unloader Valve Controls the system pressure. The unloader is pre-set at the factory to a maximum system pressure. Do not readjust this maximum pressure setting. If a lower working pressure is required, turn unloader knob counter-clockwise.
  • Page 6 3.2 CONTROLS (cont’d) Nozzle To select the correct nozzle size, determine the pressure (PSI) and flow (GPM) rating of your pressure washer. This can be found on the manufacturer’s serial plate or literature. Using the chart for nozzle requirements (see Figure 3 below) read across the top to the PSI of your pressure washer then read down the column to the GPM of your pressure washer.
