Operating Instructions
Read and understand the entire manual before operating the pressure washer.
Follow these instructions every time you use the pressure washer.
I.) Pre-Operation
;A.) Position the machine for easy access to all
controls.
;B.) Position the machine on a solid surface, with
less than a three degree slope, and so it is
protected from external damage.
;C.) Make sure ambient lighting is sufficient for the
surface you are cleaning to be seen with ease.
Use artificial light if needed.
;D.) Check hoses, fittings, wand, trigger gun and
electrical cords for signs of wear, cracks and
looseness, and replace as required.
;E.) Check and clean the nozzle orifice.
;F.) Check and clean the water inlet screen and filter.
;G.) Read entire manual, especially the important
safety instructions listed on page 2.
;H.) Check and maintain proper oil levels in the
pump.
II.) Check Your Water Supply
;A.) Make sure the water supply is clean. Debris can
cause excess pump wear and reduce
performance. The maximum inlet water
temperature is 140°F (60°C).
;B.) An insufficient water supply will damage your
pump. Make sure the water supply is steady and
is 20% over the rated flow of your pump. Use a
stopwatch to time how long it takes to fill a 5
gallon bucket with your garden hose.
Example: If the rated flow is = 3gpm
Then required flow = 3 x 1.20 = 3.6gpm
5gallons / 3.6gpm = 1.39 minutes
1.39min x 60sec/min = 83 seconds
Therefore, you must be able to fill a
5 gallon bucket in 83 seconds or faster.
;C.) The water supply garden hose must have an
inside diameter of at least 5/8”. If the hose is
more than 100 ft. long, the diameter must be at
least 3/4”.
;D.) Never use a reservoir tank as a water source.
This pressure washer is designed for a
pressurized water source such as a city water
faucet. Sucking water out of a tank may cause
pump cavitation and damage to your pump.
However, the inlet pressure of the pump must
not exceed 115 psi (8 bar)
;E.) Always use a flexible rubber hose for your water
supply. Do not use rigid piping.
;F.) Do not pump flammable liquids or liquids
containing incompatible chemicals or solvents.
III.) Before Starting
WARNING: Check hoses, fittings, wand, gun and
cords daily for signs of wear, cracks and looseness, and
replace as required.
1. Connect water supply hose to the garden hose
connector located on the side of the unit.
2. Connect high-pressure hose to quick connect outlet
on front of the machine.
3. Connect spray gun to high-pressure hose.
4. If detergents will be used, only use detergents
intended for pressure washers. Follow instructions on
the detergent container.
IV.) To Start
DANGER: Do not point the spray wand at yourself or
at any person. Bodily injury may result from water
under high pressure.
WARNING: Wear eye, ear, hand, foot and skin
protection at all times while operating this pressure
washer.
IMPORTANT: The water must be turned on before
starting. Running the pump dry will cause damage and
void warranty.
1. Turn water supply ON.
2. Squeeze the trigger to allow air to purge from the
system. (this step goes faster with the pressure nozzle
removed)

V.) Attach Nozzle
Color of Nozzle: Spray Angle Used For:
Red 0 Highest Impact
Yellow 15 Tough Stains/
Stripping
Green 25 General
White 40 Light Cleaning
Black Low pressure/
Chemical
Application
Your pressure washer is equipped with five nozzles. To
install a nozzle simply pull back the collar and push the
nozzle into the coupler. Once the connection is made,
pull on the nozzle to assure a tight connection.
WARNING: Make sure the nozzle is correctly inserted.
The nozzle may become a projectile if not inserted
correctly. Do not attempt to use different types of
nozzles that may not fit the coupler.
VI.) Turn the pump switch ON.
1. Make sure the hose is not kinked. A kinked hose
will provide insufficient water supply to the pump
and will reduce its life.
To Clean
WARNING: Wear eye, ear, hand, foot and skin
protection at all times while operating this pressure
washer.
DANGER: Do not point the spray wand at yourself or
at any person. Bodily injury may result from water
under high pressure.
IMPORTANT: Your spray gun is equipped with a
built-in trigger safety latch to guard against accidental
trigger actuation and potentially dangerous high
pressure spray. Rotate the safety latch to the locked
position when not spraying.
NOTE: Your pressure washer is equipped with a low
pressure chemical injector. You do not need to use
chemicals for every job, however, the proper chemical
used for the proper application can speed up cleaning
jobs tremendously.
WARNING: Only use North Star pressure washer
chemicals or chemicals specifically formulated for
pressure washers. Follow the chemical manufacturer’s
recommendations. Understand all safety precautions
and first aid for all chemicals.
1. Insert chemical suction line and strainer into a
container of detergent.
2. Completely open the chemical control knob located
on the chemical injector.
3. Insert the chemical application nozzle (Black).
4. Turn the chemical control knob to adjust the
chemical concentration. Spray detergent onto the
surface and allow it to soak. Chemicals need time
(dwell time) to work properly. Follow the chemical
manufacturer’s recommendations for dwell time.
5. Change back to high pressure by inserting the nozzle
with the desired spray angle.
6. Hold the lance with two hands, have a sturdy stance.
7. Point lance at dirty surface and squeeze trigger.
8. Wash from the bottom to the top, using side to side
motions. This washes away heavy dirt and allows
the detergent to soak as you work toward the top.
9. Use the width of the spray pattern to wash in a wide
path. Overlap spray paths for complete coverage.
10. The nozzle should be 12” to 24” from the work,
closer for tough areas.
Max Chemical Ratio is 13:1
Caution: Be careful on painted or delicate surfaces, the
pressure may damage the surface if the nozzle is too
close.
11. Small parts should be washed in a basket so the
pressure does not push them away. Larger, light
weight parts should be clamped down.

12. The pressure washer is set to the maximum rated
pressure when it leaves the factory. To change your
pressure, turn the unloader knob found inside the
machine counter clockwise.
WARNING: Do not alter the unloader valve’s
maximum pressure. Excess pressures could cause
serious injury and/or pump damage. Any alteration
other than turning the adjustment knob will void your
warranty.
To Stop
1. If detergents were used, draw clean water through the
detergent inlet line to purge detergent. Failure to do
so may clog the chemical injector.
2. Turn the pump switch OFF.
3. Turn OFF the water supply.
4. Squeeze the trigger to relieve the system pressure.
Maintenance Instructions
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.
All mechanical equipment, no matter how well designed,
will need repairs. A North Star pressure washer is no
exception. At times, a North Star pressure washer may be
inoperable because repairs are required. North Star
Customer Service will assist in these repairs as needed,
but if an inoperable pressure washer creates a major
expense to your business then we strongly recommend
the following:
1. Have someone on staff who is trained in the operation
of the pressure washer and is capable of making minor
repairs and performing all preventative maintenance
procedures as outlined in the provided manuals.
2. Keep a stock of recommended service parts for
maintenance and minor repairs.
