OpERATION
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 equals CU.
Bypass Mode: Allows water to re-circulate within the pump when the gun trigger is
not pulled. This feature allows the operator to release the trigger gun and reposition
themselves without having to turn the engine off in between cleaning actions.
NOTICE: Allowing the unit to run for more than two minutes without the gun trigger
being pulled could cause overheating and damage to the pump. Do not let the
pressure washer run for more than two minutes in Bypass Mode. Turn off the engine
and relieve the pressure in the gun during these extended situations.
Thermal Relief Valve (Q, Fig. 5): When the temperature inside the 5
Q
pump rises too high, this valve will open and release a gush of
water in an effort to lower the temperature inside the pump. The
valve will then close.
Detergent 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.
If your water source is a well, the garden hose length can only be 30ft. (9m) max.
WARNING: To reduce the possibility of contamination always protect
against backflow when connected to a potable water system.
pRESSURE WASHER OpERATING FEATURES
pRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
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. Use the Dial-N-Wash to increase and decrease the pressure. Refer to the
Dial-N-Wash Adjustment paragraph.
NOTICE: DO NOT attempt to increase pump pressure. A higher pressure setting
than the factory set pressure may damage pump.
DIAL-N-WASH ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 6, 7)
1. Choose the correct high pressure nozzle (0˚, 15˚, 25˚ or 40˚) for the job to be
performed. Refer to How To Use Spray Wand.
2. The Dial-N-Wash is shipped in the MAX pressure setting, the MAX pressure
bar is aligned with the arrow (R) on the collar as shown in Figure 6.
Rotating the Dial-N-Wash (M) counterclockwise until it stops places it in the
MIN pressure setting, the arrow (R) will align with the MIN pressure bar as
shown in Figure 7.

NOTE: To apply chemicals the black low pressure nozzle must be installed and
the Dial-N-Wash must be in the MAX pressure setting.

*NOTICE: The high pressure spray from your pressure washer is capable of
causing damage to surfaces such as wood, glass, automobile paint, auto striping
and trim, and delicate objects such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check
the item to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist damage
from the force of the spray.
CHANGING NOzzLES ON SpRAY WAND (FIG. 8)
DANGER: Risk of fluid injection. Do not direct discharge stream toward
persons, unprotected skin, eyes or any pets or animals. Serious injury will

HOW TO AppLY CHEMICALS/CLEANING SOLvENTS (FIG. 6, 9)
Applying chemicals or cleaning solvents is a low pressure operation. NOTE: Use
only soaps and chemicals designed for pressure washer use. Do not use bleach.
To Apply Chemicals:
1. Ensure detergent siphon hose (F, Figure 9) is attached
F

to barbed fitting location near high pressure hose
connection of pump as shown.
2. Place other end of detergent siphon hose with
filter on it into container holding chemical/cleaning
solution. NOTE: For every 7 gallons of water pumped
1 gallon of chemical/cleaning solution will be used.
3. Install the black low pressure nozzle into the quick connect fitting of the spray
wand and rotate the Dial-N-Wash (M) to the MAX pressure setting as shown in
Figure 6. See How To Use Spray Wand paragraph in this section.
NOTE: To apply chemicals the black low pressure nozzle must be installed and
the Dial-N-Wash must be in the MAX pressure setting as shown in Figure 6.
4. After use of chemicals, place detergent siphon hose into container of clean
water and draw clean water through chemical injection system to rinse system
thoroughly. If chemicals remain in the pump, it could be damaged. Pumps
damaged due to chemical residue will not be covered under warranty.
NOTE: Chemicals and soaps will not siphon if the black soap nozzle is not installed
on the spray wand.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Risk of burn hazard. When performing maintenance, you may
be exposed to hot surfaces, water pressure or moving parts that can cause
serious injury or death.
WARNING: Risk of fire hazard. Always disconnect, spark plug wire,
let the engine cool and release all water pressure before performing any
maintenance or repair. The engine contains flammable fuel. Do not smoke or
work near open flames while performing maintenance.
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of your pressure washer, a routine
maintenance schedule should be prepared and followed. If the pressure washer is
used in unusual conditions, such as high-temperatures or dusty conditions, more
frequent maintenance checks will be required.

CONNECTIONS
Connections on pressure washer hoses, gun and spray wand should be cleaned
regularly and lubricated with light oil or lithium grease to prevent leakage and
damage to the o-rings.
NOzzLE CLEANING (FIG. 15)
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. Pull trigger on gun handle to relieve any water pressure.
3. Disconnect the spray wand from the gun.
4. Remove the high pressure nozzle (K) from the spray 15 k

wand. Remove any obstructions with the nozzle cleaning
tool provided and backflush with clean water.
5. Direct water supply (N) into nozzle to backflush loosened
particles for 30 seconds.
6. Reassemble the nozzle to the wand.
7. Reconnect spray wand to gun and turn on water supply.
8. Start pressure washer and place spray wand into high
pressure setting to test.
CLEAN THE WATER INLET FILTER (FIG. 10)
This screen filter should be checked periodically and cleaned if necessary.
1. Remove filter by grasping end and removing it from water inlet of pump.
2. Clean filter by flushing it with water on both sides.
