INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
Getting Started
IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment
will assure more satisfactory performance, longer
service life, and lower maintenance cost.
IMPORTANT: The use of a backflow preventer on the
water supply hose is recommended and may be re-
quired by local code.
The pressure washer should be run on a level surface
and in a protected area where it is not readily influenced
by outside forces such as strong winds, freezing
temperatures, rain, etc. The pressure washer should
be located to assure easy access for filling of fluids,
adjustments and maintenance. Normal precautions should
be taken by the operator to prevent moisture from reaching
the pressure washer. It is recommended that a partition be
made between the wash area and the pressure washer
to prevent direct spray from the wand from coming in
contact with the pressure washer. Moisture reaching the
equipment will reduce the pressure washer’s service life.
All installations must comply with the local codes covering
such installations.

Venting
CAUTION: All venting must be in accordance with ap-
plicable federal and state laws, and local ordinances.
Consult local heating contractors.
If the pressure washer is to be used in an enclosed area,
a flue must be installed to vent burner exhaust to the
outside atmosphere. Be sure the flue is the same size
as the burner exhaust vent on the pressure washer lid.
Poor draft will cause the pressure washer to soot and
not operate properly. When selecting the location for
installation, beware of poorly ventilated locations or areas
where exhaust fans may cause an insufficient supply of
oxygen. Proper combustion can only be obtained when
there is a sufficient supply of oxygen available for the
amount of fuel being burned. If it is necessary to install
the machine in a poorly ventilated area, outside fresh air
may have to be piped to the burner and a fan installed to
bring sufficient air into the machine. Locate the pressure
washer so that the flue will be as straight as possible and
protrude through the roof at a proper height and location
to provide adequate draft. This oil fired pressure washer
must have a draft regulator installed in the flue (available
from most heating contractors). A draft regulator will
permit proper upward flow of exhaust flue gases.
Beckett Oil Burner
Burner Air Adjustment: The oil burner is preset for
operation at altitudes below 1000 feet. If operated at
higher altitudes, it may be necessary to adjust the air band
setting. Adjust the air band for a #1 or #2 smoke spot on
the Bacharach scale.
To adjust, start machine and turn burner ON (refer to
Operation for details). Loosen two locking screws
found in the air shutter openings (refer to Figure 4) and
close air shutter until black smoke appears from burner
exhaust vent. Note air band position. Next, slowly open
the air shutter until white smoke just starts to appear.
Turn air shutter halfway back to the black smoke position
previously noted. Tighten locking screws.
If the desired position cannot be obtained using only the
air shutter, lock the air shutter in as close a position as
can be obtained, then repeat the above procedure on the
air band setting.
CAUTION: If white smoke appears from burner
exhaust vent during start-up or operation, discontinue
use and readjust air bands.
NOTE: If a flue is installed, have a professional ser-
viceman adjust your burner for a #1 or #2 smoke spot
on the Bacharach scale.
For additional burner component information, see
Burner Assembly. It is recommended that the oil burner
be serviced yearly or as needed. Contact your local
service center.
Crossfire Oil Burner
Burner Air Adjustment:The oil burner on this machine

PRESSURE WASHER OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water. Place de-
tergent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and
apply to surface at low pressure (for best results, limit
your work area to sections approximately 6 feet square
and always apply detergent from bottom to top). Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not
allow detergent to dry on surface. If surface appears
to be drying, simply wet down surface with fresh water.
If needed, use brush to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at
high pressure from top to bottom in an even sweeping
motion keeping the spray nozzle approximately 1 foot
from cleaning surface. Use overlapping strokes as you
clean and rinse any surface. For best surface cleaning
action spray at a slight angle.
Recommendations:
• Before cleaning any surface, an inconspicuous
area should be cleaned to test spray pattern and
distance for maximum cleaning results.
• If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping,
use extreme caution as pressure washer may
remove the loose paint from the surface.
• Keep the spray nozzle a safe distance from the
surface you plan to clean. High pressure wash a
small area, then check the surface for damage. If
no damage is found, continue to pressure wash-
ing.
CAUTION - Never use:
• Bleach, chlorine products and other corrosive
chemicals
• Liquids containing solvents (i.e., paint thinners,
gasoline, oils)
• Tri-sodium phosphate products
• Ammonia products
• Acid-based products
These chemicals will harm the machine and will dam-
age the surface being cleaned.
GENERAL CLEANING TECHNIQUES & STORAGE
RINSING
It will take a few seconds for the detergent to clear.
Apply safety latch to spray gun. Select and install de-
sired high pressure nozzle. NOTE: You can also stop
detergent from flowing by removing detergent siphon
tube from bottle.
STORAGE
DANGER: DO NOT store flammable liquids (gasoline,
diesel fuel, solvents, etc.) near pressure washer, or in
non-ventilated areas.
Protect from freezing by storing in a heated area, or by
flushing the system with antifreeze (use an automotive
engine antifreeze or windshield washer solvent to
antifreeze). To flush the system fill the float tank with
antifreeze and remove pressure nozzle from wand. Start
the machine and allow it to run until antifreeze flows from
the end of the wand. Place end of wand into float tank
and circulate the antifreeze through system for several
minutes. Squeeze and release the trigger of the trigger
gun several times to antifreeze the unloader system.
Also draw antifreeze through the detergent inlet line to
antifreeze the detergent system. For added protection
after anti-freezing, disconnect the pressure hose from
machine and remove the coil drain plug (refer to Figure
12 Item 15 for location). After coil has drained, replace
pressure hose and coil drain plug. If the pressure washer
is not to be used for an extended length of time, it is
recommended that the system be flushed with antifreeze
for rust protection.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Unauthorized machine modification or
use of non-approved replacement parts may cause
personal injury and/or property damage and will void
the manufacturer warranty.
Pump
Lubrication: To lubricate pump, use 30W non-detergent
oil for pump crankcase. Crankcase must be filled to center
of sight glass window found on the rear of the pump, refer
to Figure 5. During the break-in-period, make sure the
oil is changed after the first 25 hours of operation. After
that, replace oil every 3 months or 300 hours of operation,
whichever comes first.
Proper Pump Care:
•Do not pump acids.
• Do not allow pump to run dry.
• Winterize if storing in freezing temperatures, refer
to Storage for details.
• Use a water softener on the water system if known
to be high in mineral content.
• Use only high quality detergents and follow mix
recommendations.
• Flush the system with clear water immediately
after using detergent solutions.
• Clean filter screen on detergent inlet line periodi-
cally.
• Flush the pressure washer system with antifreeze
if storing for an extended period of time, refer to
Storage to details.
Pump Motor
On a yearly basis, oil pump motor per instructions on
motor nameplate.
NOTE: Some motors may be equipped with perma-
nently lubricated bearings and will not require ad-
ditional lubrication.
Relief Valve
WARNING: The relief valve on this pressure washer
has been factory set and sealed and is a field non-
adjustable part. Tampering with the factory setting
may cause personal injury and/or property damage,
and will void the manufacturer warranty. For replace-
ment parts refer to Coil Outlet Assembly.
If pressure from pump or thermal expansion should
exceed safe limits, the relief valve will open, allowing
high pressure to be discharged through hose to ground.
Caution: Inspect relief valve annually for any
obstruction.
Unloader Valve
WARNING: The unloader valve on this pressure
washer has been factory set and sealed and is a
field nonadjustable part. Tampering with the factory
setting may cause personal injury and/or property
damage, and will void the manufacturer warranty. For
replacement refer to Pump Assembly, Item 4.
Burner Fuel Filter
Drain any water which has accumulated in fuel filter
and clean or replace filter element as needed. Refer to
Burner Assembly.
Heating Coil
Coil Descaling: In hard water areas, scale buildup within
the heating coil will occur. Scale deposits will decrease
the water temperature rise and may eventually clog the
heating coil. Contact your local service center when
descaling is needed.
Coil Desooting: Poor grades of fuel oil or inadequate
combustion air will cause heavy soot buildup on the
outside surface of the heating coil. These deposits will
insulate the coil. This will restrict the air flow through the
coil, further aggravating the soot buildup. Contact your
local service center when desooting is needed.
