HOW TO USE YOUR PRESSURE
WASHER
If you have any problems operating your pressure
washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-222-3136.
To Start Your Pressure
Washer
To start your engine-powered
pressure washer for the
first time, follow these instructions step-by-step. This
starting information also applies whenever you start
the engine after you have let the pressure washer sit
idle for at least a day.
•
Place the pressure washer in an area close
enough to an outside water source capable of
supplying water at a flow rate greater than
2.4 gallons per minute.
•
Check that the high pressure hose is tightly
connected to the spray gun and to the pump. See
"Assembling Your Pressure Washer" for
illustrations.
•
Make sure unit is in a level position.
•
Connect the garden hose to the water inlet on the
pressure washer pump. Turn ON the water.
CAUTION!
Do Not run the pump without the water
supply connected and turned on. You must follow this
caution or the pump will be damaged.
•
Squeeze trigger on gun to purge pump system of
air and impurities.
•
Attach nozzle extension to spray gun. Tighten by
hand.
•
Position the nozzle in the low pressure mode (slide
nozzle forward) and squeeze the trigger on the
spray gun to relieve pressure caused by turning
ON the water. Water will flow out of the gun in a
thin stream. Continue to hold trigger until there is a
steady stream of water and no air remains in the
system. Release the trigger.
•
Engage the safety latch to the spray gun trigger.

•
Grasp the unit's handle with your left hand. Pull the
starter grip lightly with your right hand until you feel
some resistance, then pull briskly.
•
Return the starter grip handle slowly. Do Not let
rope "snap back" against starter.
•
When engine starts, slowly move choke lever to
the "Run" position. If engine falters, move choke
lever to the "Choke" position, then to the "Run"
position.
•
If engine fails to start after six pulls, move choke
lever to the "Run" position. If engine fires, but does
not continue to run, move choke lever to the
"Choke" position, then to the "Run" position.
NOTE: If the recoil starter is hard to pull, it may be
necessary to squeeze the gun trigger to relieve
internal pump pressure.
How to Stop Your Pressure
Washer
•
Move throttle lever to "Stop" position.
•
Turn the fuel shut-off valve to the "Off" position
(fully clockwise).
