IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read all safety and operating instructions before using the unit.
2. Read warnings on additive containers.
3. Ventilate work area when using toxic or pungent additives to reduce your exposure to
toxic fumes.
4. Use proctective wear, especially for the eyes and skin.
5. Be careful of slippery oors. Some additives make a normally safe area extremely slippery
and dangerous.
6. Keep children away from the machine and wash area.
7. Do not change nozzle size. Each machine is designed to operate with a specic size
nozzle. An incorrect nozzle could cause excessive pressure resulting in pump damage
and possible personal injury. Refer to parts list for correct nozzle size.
8. Do not point the nozzle where damage or injury could result. Eg. eyes, skin, people,
animals. The water discharge from this unit is under extremely high pressure.
9. Do not point the nozzle toward an electrical outlet as you risk severe shock and personal
injury.
10. Use only recommended No. 1 or No. 2 fuel oil in this unit. Do not use gasoline, crankcase
drainings, or oil containing gasoline or solvents.
11. Never run the unit in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes are poisonous. Ensure all areas
are properly vented in accordance with local regulating and/or CSA standard B139.
12. Whenever you stop spraying, always engage the safety latch on the trigger gun.
13. Whenever changing nozzles, always turn the engine o and always relieve the pressure
by triggering the gun. Always engage the safety latch on the trigger gun. Always change
the nozzle with the gun and wand pointed away from you, and never pointed at any
person or animal.
WARNING - risk of injection or severe injury. Keep clear of nozzle. Do not direct
discharge stream at persons. This equipment is to be used only by trained operators.

Battery Connection for KEH2700GF / KEH3500GF
All models above use a battery with side post as shown in the picture below
Note use battery group 75 with side posts only. Battery size L 9” x W 71/2” x H 71/4”
(Width of battery includes side posts)
Caution: Battery can cause electrical shock or fires please exercise extra care when
attaching the wires to battery.
As picture shows use red wire on the positive post and use black wire on negative post
Attach wires to the battery post using below process:
First remove plugs on the side post to expose battery terminal holes.
Second use two 3/8” x 1/2" long screws and two 3/8” nuts to attach wires to the battery
Begin placing the red wire followed by the black wire. The 3/8” nuts are used in the place
of washers to enable firm attachment of the cable wires on the battery.
Third move the battery into the opening between all thread bolts, while doing this make
sure that wires behind the battery do not get pinched.
Final use the bracket already installed on two threaded rods, to fasten the battery so that
it is fixed in position.

SETTING UP
When unpacking the unit, if you nd damage due to shipping, contact your dealer.
INCOMING WATER SUPPLY
Connect a garden hose to the water inlet of the unit. The water supply must be able to deliver 8 gallons per
minute at a minimum pressure of 5 psi.
See "Specications and Features" sheet in this manual.
OUTGOING (HIGH PRESSURE) WATER
To the water outlet tting, connect the high pressure hose, trigger gun, extension and nozzle.
PUMP - OIL
Before operating the pump, check to see that the oil is level with the dot on the sight gauge which is located at the
rear of the pump. The oil level can also be checked using the dipstick which is attached to the oil ller cap. Ensure
that the vent hole in the cap/dipstick is clear of dirt. When oil is required, use #20 or #30 non-detergent heavy
duty oil.
BURNER - FUEL
Fill the burner fuel tank with no. 1 or no. 2 fuel oil
BATTERY
Battery must be installed before starting the engine. (the engine will start without the battery installed, but damage
will occur.)
BURNER START UP INSTRUCTIONS
(In the event that the burner has been replaced)
1. Set the Thermostat substantially above water temperature of the incoming water supply. (In temperate
regions, this is around 50 degrees Fahrenheit.)
2. Turn on the burner switch.
3. As soon as the burner motor starts rotating, bleed (prime) the fuel pump. To do this, attach the clear plastic
hose over the vent plug. Loosen the plug and catch the fuel in an empty container. Tighten the plug when all
the air appears to be eliminated.
4. If the burner stops during bleeding, wait three to ve minutes for the control Safety Switch to cool, then reset
it manually.
5. If the burner stops after ame is established, additional venting is probably required. Repeat the bleeding
procedure.
CAUTION - Do not attempt to start the burner when excess fuel has accumulated, or when the furnace or
boiler is full of vapor, or when the combustion chamber is hot.
