INSTALLATION
Getting Started
IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment
willassuremoresatisfactory performance,longer ser-
vice life, and lower maintenance cost.
IMPORTANT:The use of a backflow preventer on the
water supply hose is recommended and may be
required 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,
adjustmentsandmaintenance.Normalprecautionsshould
betakenbythe operatortopreventmoisturefrom reaching
the pressure washer. It is recommended that a partition
bemadebetweenthe washareaand thepressurewasher
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.
Allinstallationsmustcomplywiththelocalcodes covering
such installations.
Venting
DANGER: Do not run machine indoors or in an
enclosed area, as exhaust fumes may be hazardous
to your health.
DANGER: Do not operate machine in areas where
flammable vapors (gasoline, solvents, etc.) may be
present, as this machine may ignite the vapors.
CAUTION: All venting must be in accordance with
applicable federal and state laws, and local ordi-
nances. Consult local heating contractors.
If the pressure washer is to be used in an enclosed area,
a flue must be installed to vent burner and engine
exhaust to the outside atmosphere. Be sure the flue is
thesamesizeastheburnerexhaustventonthepressure
washer. See Figure 1 for location. 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
combustioncanonlybeobtained whenthereisa sufficient
supply of oxygen available for the amount of fuel being
burned.If it is necessarytoinstallthemachineinapoorly
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
regulatorinstalledintheflue(availablefrommostheating
contractors). A draft regulator will permit proper upward
flow of exhaust flue gases.
Inaddition,thepressure washershouldnever beoperated
in an enclosed area where high ambient temperatures
exist. High ambient temperatures (above 100oF) can
causeengineoil failureand willgreatlyreducetheengine’s
performance.
Gasoline Engine
This gasoline engine is preset for operation at altitudes
below 3000 feet above sea level. If operated at higher
altitudes, it may be necessary to install a high altitude
main jet in the carburetor. Contact an authorized engine

2. 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.
3. Do not wash at a 90oangle to work (straight at it).
This will allow water to splash back at you and
reduces your cleaning power. Wash at a 30oto 60o
angle to the work.This will allow the water to splash
away from you and the water will wash the dirt away
faster and easier.
4. Use the full width of the spray pattern to wash in
a wide path. Overlap spray paths for complete
coverage.Wash from side to side, using slow, steady
motions.
5. The nozzle should be 12" to 24" from work, closer for
tough areas. Be careful on painted or delicate sur-
faces, the pressure may damage surface if nozzle is
too close.
