Operating Instructions; Priming The Pump; Start-Up - Mi-T-M Corporation CWC-GASOLINE Manual Del Operador

PRIMING THE PUMP:

1. It is essential to prime the pump on initial start-up and each time the water supply is disconnected from
the unit after initial use.
2. Lay the high pressure hose out to remove any loops. (Water flow will tighten the hose, creating tight
loops if the hose is not straight.)
3. Securely connect the gun assembly to the high pressure hose.
NOTE: The quick-connect nozzle should NOT be connected to the gun assembly at this time. See "Nozzle Connection".
4. With the trigger gun locked in the OFF position, turn the water supply completely on. Pointing the gun in
a safe direction, unlock the trigger gun and squeeze the trigger.
DANGER: RISK OF INJECTION CAUSING SEVERE INJURY! KEEP CLEAR OF NOZZLE! NEVER
PLACE HAND OR FINGERS IN FRONT OF NOZZLE! DO NOT DIRECT DISCHARGE STREAM AT
PEOPLE OR PETS! BE CERTAIN THE NOZZLE IS SECURELY CONNECTED TO THE LANCE TO
PREVENT ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGE!
5. Low pressure water will begin flowing from the hose/gun assembly. This allows the unit to prime and
purge any air from the system. The unit is primed when water flow is uninterrupted by air.
6. Once the unit is primed, release the trigger and lock the gun in the OFF position. Securely connect the
desired quick-connect nozzle. (See "Nozzle Connection")

START-UP:

1. Refer to the "Safety Warnings" in the warnings section before starting the unit.
2. Locate the Safety Decals on your unit and heed their warnings.
3. With the gun locked in the OFF position, point the trigger gun away from yourself or anyone else.
4. Disengage the safety lock-off on the gun and squeeze the trigger. Low pressure water will begin flowing
from the nozzle.
5. BE CERTAIN the trigger gun remains in an open position while starting the engine. Brace yourself as the
gun will kickback from the high pressure created by the pump once the engine has started.
6. Refer to the Engine Manual accompanying this pressure washer for the correct procedures needed to
start the engine.
7. Once the engine has started, perform the following procedures with the gun open:
a. Inspect for system water leaks, oil leaks and fuel leaks. If a fuel leak is found, TURN UNIT OFF
IMMEDIATELY! See "Risk of Explosion or Fire". Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that
the mechanical problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit. If you require service, contact
your Customer Service.
b. Inspect high pressure hoses for kinking, cuts and leaks. If a cut or leak is found, DO NOT TOUCH
HOSE AT LEAK!!! TURN UNIT OFF IMMEDIATELY! Replace hose before restarting the unit. See "Risk
of Injection," in the warnings. Be sure that all damaged parts are replaced and that the mechanical
problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit. If you require service, contact your Customer
Service.
8. Be certain to LOCK the trigger gun in the OFF position whenever changing the quick-connect nozzles.
NEVER look directly into the nozzle! High pressure water creates a risk of severe injury!
9. Do not allow unit to operate in bypass mode (with trigger closed) for more than three minutes without
triggering the gun. Failure to follow this simple rule can cause premature failure of pump packing seals,
resulting in costly pump repair.
10. Because your pressure washer delivers a high pressure spray and a variety of spray patterns, there are
many cleaning jobs that can be done without the use of detergents. If a cleaning agent is required, see
"Cleaning With Detergents" for the correct procedures.
CAUTION: RISK OF DAMAGE. DO NOT ALLOW SPRAY PATTERN TO REMAIN ON A FIXED AREA
FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. POSSIBLE DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE AREA.
