LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more
than 30 days, you must prepare the engine and pump
for long term storage.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended
fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
Protect
Fuel System
Fuel Additive:
If adding a fuel additive, fill the fuel tank with fresh
gasoline. If only partially filled, air in the tank will
promote fuel deterioration during storage. Engine and
fuel can be stored up to 24 months with additive.
•
Add fuel additive following manufacturer's
instructions.
•
Connect water supply to pump inlet and turn it ON.
•
Run the engine outdoors for 10 minutes to be sure
that treated gasoline has replaced the untreated
gasoline in the carburetor.
If fuel additive is not used, remove all fuel from tank
and run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
Change
Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase.
Refill with recommended
grade. See "Changing Oil" on
page 13.
Oil Cylinder
Bore
•
Remove spark plug. Squirt about 1 tablespoon of
clean engine oil into the cylinder. Cover spark plug
hole with rag. Pull recoil handle slowly to distribute
oil. Avoid spray from spark plug hole.
•
Install spark plug. Do Not connect spark plug wire.
Protect
Pump
To protect the pump from damage caused by mineral
deposits or freezing, use the pump saver (Sears item
number 74403).
_
CAUTION!
Read and follow all cautions and
warnings on the pump saver can label. Always
wear eye protection when using pump saver.
To use pump saver, make sure the pressure washer is
turned off and disconnected from supply water. Read
and follow all instructions and warnings given on the
pump saver container.
NOTE: If pump saver is not available, draw RV
antifreeze (non-alcohol)
into the pump by pouring the
solution into a 3-foot section of garden hose
connected to inlet adapter and pulling recoil handle
twice.
NOTE: PumpSaver will drip from pump after treatment
and will stain wood and concrete.
OTHER
•
Do Not store gasoline from one season to another.
•
If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to
give protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO
EMPTY THE FUEL TANK.
IMPORTANT:
Never cover your pressure washer
while engine and exhaust area are warm.
