11- ENG D30333
HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND:
Your pressure washer is equipped with
a multi-adjustable spray wand with
both high and low pressure settings.
The high pressure setting is for
cleaning and rinsing, the low pressure
setting is for applying cleaning
solutions to surfaces.
When using the high
pressure setting, DO
NOT allow the jet-like spray to come
in contact with unprotected skin,
eyes, or with any pets or animals.
Serious injury can occur.
Risk of injection or
injury to person. DO
NOT direct discharge stream toward
persons.
For high pressure operation, pull back
the nozzle of the multi-adjustable
spray wand as shown.
TO ADJUST PRESSURE
The pressure setting is preset at the
factory to achieve optimum pressure
and cleaning. If you need to lower the
pressure, it can be accomplished by
these methods.
1. Back away from the surface to be
cleaned. The further away you are,
the less the pressure will be on
the surface to be cleaned.
2. Rotate the nozzle at the end of
the multi-adjustable spray wand
to widen the fan spray. The wider
fan spray will minimize the
pressure on the surface to be
cleaned.
DO NOT attempt to
increase pump
pressure. A higher pressure setting
than the factory set pressure may
damage pump.
HOW TO USE
IMPORTANT: Read and understand
how to use the pressure washer
before operating.
PRESSURE WASHER
TERMINOLOGY
PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit
of measure for water pressure. Also
used for air pressure, hydraulic
pressure, etc.
GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of
measure for the flow rate of water.
CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by
PSI.
Bypass Mode: In Bypass Mode, the
pump is recirculating water because
the trigger of the spray gun is not
pulled. If unit is left in bypass mode for
more than two (2) minutes, the water
temperature will rise to a dangerous
level and could damage internal
components of the pump. Any
damage to pump due to these causes
will not be covered under warranty.
DO NOT allow your
unit to operate in
bypass mode for more than two
minutes at any time. Overheating of
pump can cause damage to pump.
Thermal Relief Valve: In an effort to
prevent extreme damage, pumps are
equipped with a thermal relief valve.
This valve will open when the
temperature inside the pump rises too
high. This valve will then release a
gush of water in an effort to lower the
temperature inside the pump.
Immediately after this occurs, the
valve will close. The thermal relief
valve is part of the pump and is not
visible to the user.
Chemical Injection System: Mixes
cleaners or cleaning solvents with the
water to improve cleaning
effectiveness.
Water Supply: All pressure washers
must have a source of water. The
minimum requirements for a water
supply are 20 PSI and 5 gallons per
minute.

3. Fill cleaning solution tanks with
desired cleaning solution. Each
tank holds approximately 1.25
gallon. NOTE: The cleaning
solution/water ratio is 7:1, for
every 7 gallons of water pumped,
1 gallon of cleaning solution will
be used.
Never fill cleaning
solution tanks with
gasoline or other flammable solvent.
4. Turn control valve knob toward
tank with desired cleaning
solution.
5. Set multi-adjustable nozzle to low
pressure setting. See How To Use
Spray Wand paragraph in this
section.
6. After use of cleaning solution the
chemical injector MUST be rinsed,
follow the instructions in the
Shutting Down paragraph after
each use.
NOTE: Cleaning solutions will not
siphon when spray wand is in the high
pressure setting.
DUAL TANK CLEANING
SOLUTION TIPS
1. Each tank may be filled with
different cleaning solutions
depending on the task to be
performed. Example: deck and
driveway. Fill one tank with deck
cleaning solution and the other
with driveway cleaning solution.
Clean the deck with the deck
cleaning solution and then simply
turn the control knob toward the
driveway cleaning solution and
clean the driveway.
The nozzle at the end of the multi-
adjustable spray wand can be rotated
to change the high pressure spray
pattern from a narrow jet to a 40º fan
shape, as shown. Markings have been
placed on the nozzle to help you
select the spray pattern.
For low pressure operation, extend the
nozzle of the multi-adjustable spray
wand as shown.

Air Cleaner
A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to
the carburetor and cause poor engine
performance. Inspect the filter each
time the engine is operated. Clean the
filter more frequently if the engine is
operated in very dusty areas.
NOTICE: Operating the engine without
a filter, will allow dirt to enter the
engine, causing rapid engine wear. This
type of damage is not covered under
the warranty.
Inspect
1. Press the latch tabs on the top of
the air cleaner cover and remove
the cover. Check the filter to be
sure it is clean and in good
condition.
2. Reinstall the filter and air cleaner
cover.
Cleaning
1. Tap the filter several times on a
hard surface to remove dirt or
blow compressed air [not
exceeding 30 psi (207kPa, 1.2
kg/cm2) through the filter from the
clean side that faces the engine.
Never try to brush off dirt.
Brushing will force dirt into the
fibers.
2. Wipe dirt from the air cleaner body
and cover using a moist rag. Be
careful to prevent dirt from
entering the air duct that leads to
the carburetor.

4. Disconnect the wand from the
gun.
5. Remove the nozzle from the end
of the wand with the 2mm allen
wrench provided as shown.
6. Clean the nozzle using the nozzle
cleaner provided or a straightened
paper clip. Insert into the nozzle
end and work back and forth until
obstruction is removed.
7. Direct water supply into nozzle
end to backflush loosened
particles for 30 seconds.
8. Reconnect spark plug wire.
9. Reassemble the nozzle to the
wand. Tighten securely to prevent
leaks.
10. Reconnect wand to gun and turn
on water supply.
11. Start pressure washer and place
wand into high pressure setting to
test.
NOZZLE CLEANING
If the nozzle becomes clogged with
foreign materials, such as dirt,
excessive pressure may develop. If the
nozzle becomes partially clogged or
restricted, the pump pressure will
pulsate. Clean the nozzle immediately
using the nozzle kit supplied and the
following instructions:
1. Shut off the pressure washer and
turn off the water supply.
2. Disconnect spark plug wire.
Clean and Replace Spark Plug
Change the spark plug every 100 hours
of operation or once each year,
whichever comes first. This will help
your engine to start easier and run
better.

ENGINE
IMPORTANT: It is important to prevent
gum deposits from forming in essential
fuel system parts such as the
carburetor, fuel filter, hose or tank
during storage. Also, experience
indicates that alcohol-blended fuels
(called gasohol or using 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. To avoid engine
problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or
longer. Never use engine or carburetor
cleaner products in the fuel tank or per-
manent damage may occur.
Engine Preparation
1. First add a fuel stabilizer to the
fuel tank.
2. Run pressure washer for a full 5
minutes to allow fuel stabilizer to
enter the fuel system.
While preparing the
engine make sure
water supply is turned on and
flowing to the unit. NEVER run unit
without water supply running
through pump. Failure to do so will
cause pump damage.
3. Next shut off engine and
disconnect the water supply.
4. Disconnect the spark plug wire
and remove the spark plug.
5. Add one teaspoon of oil through
the spark plug hole.
6. Place rag over spark plug hole and
pull the recoil a few times to
lubricate the combustion chamber.
7. Replace the spark plug, but do not
connect the spark plug wire.
PUMP
1. Drain all water from high
pressure hose, coil it, and store it
in cradle of the pressure washer
handle.
2. Drain all water from spray gun
and spray wand by holding spray
gun in a vertical position with
nozzle end pointing down and
squeezing trigger. Store in
gun/hose holder.
3. Store chemical injector rinsing
hose, high pressure hose, spray
gun, and spray wand so they are
protected from damage, such as
being run over.
It is recommended that you follow
these steps to protect the internal seals
of the pressure washer when STORING
THE UNIT FOR MORE THAN 30 DAYS
AND/OR WHEN FREEZING
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED.
*RV antifreeze needs to be run through
the pump as outlined in the steps
below.
4. Obtain a funnel, six ounces of *RV
antifreeze, and approximately 36
inches of garden hose with a male
hose connector attached to one
end.
Use only RV
antifreeze. Any other
antifreeze is corrosive and can
damage pump.
5. Disconnect spark plug wire.
6. Connect 36 inch length of hose
to water inlet of pump.
