Equipment Description

WARNING Failure to read and follow the operator's
manual and all operating instructions before
using could result in death or serious injury.
• Read this manual carefully and become familiar with
your electric pressure washer. Know its applications,
its limitations, and any hazards involved.
Every effort has been made to ensure that the information
in this manual is accurate and current. However, we reserve
the right to change, alter, or otherwise improve the product
and this document at any time without prior notice.
POWERflow+ Technology
POWERflow+ Technology is a deep cleaning pressure
washer with both high pressure to lift dirt AND high flow to
easily wash it away. In the high flow mode, POWERflow+
Technology enhances the cleaning experience by providing
extended reach, power soaping, and faster rinsing
capabilities.
The force behind POWERflow+ is in the pump with two
separate cleaning modes: high pressure and high flow.
The high-pressure mode delivers up to 2000 PSI (pounds
square inch) and is ideal for cleaning the toughest stains,
mildew and grime from decks, driveways and siding, while
the high-flow mode delivers up to 3.5 GPM (gallons per
minute) to power-rinse away dirt, soap and debris. The
high flow mode also makes it the best to use for washing
delicate surfaces such as patio furniture, vehicles, and
children's outdoor play sets and toys.
POWERflow+ Technology is a system of components
working in concert to deliver the high-flow capability.
Water is sent from the pump to the specially designed 25
ft. hose and into the custom-engineered POWERflow+ gun
with soft grip handle. Water then flows into the exclusive
7-in-1 nozzle that allows user to change from High
Pressure to High Flow, without changing nozzle tips, and
propels the stream up to 30 ft.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Protection
This pressure washer is provided with a ground-fault
circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power
supply cord. This device provides additional protection
from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of
the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical
replacement parts that include GFCI protection.
Automatic Shut-Off
The electric pressure washer is equipped with a sensor that
will detect that water flow has stopped when releasing the
spray gun trigger. The sensor will cause the motor to shut
off for as long as the spray gun trigger is released.
If the motor continues to run when the spray gun trigger
is released or locked, DO NOT USE THE MACHINE. Call
the electric pressure washer helpline at (888) 331-4569 for
assistance.
NOTICE The electric pressure washer is equipped with a
main power ON/OFF switch. The switch should always be
moved to the OFF position (0) when the electric pressure
washer is not being used to prevent possible damage.
Motor Overload
The electric motor in this electric pressure washer is
equipped with an overload protection device (thermostat).
This device will automatically shut off the motor if the
motor overheats or draws excessive current.
If the overload protection device is tripped, disconnect the
power supply by turning the master ON/OFF switch to the
OFF (0) position. Let unit cool for 30 minutes. Then turn
the master ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position to resume
operation.
