ADJUSTING WATER PRESSURE:
•The water pressure is regulated by the throttle
lever.(A)
•Moving the throttle lever towards the left will
increase the engine speed thus increasing the
water pressure.
•Moving the throttle lever towards the right will
decrease the engine speed thus decreasing
the water pressure.
DETERGENT INJECTOR (LOW PRESSURE):
•This pressure washer is intended for use with
pressure washer detergents only.
•Do not use powdered soaps which clog the
injection system.
•Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
directions or call the Simoniz toll-free number
if you have any questions or concerns.
HOW TO USE DETERGENT WITH PRESSURE WASHER:
1) Ensure detergent siphon tubes are set up
correctly. You may want to refer to assembly
instruction #9 on page 10 to verify that siphon
tubes are set up properly.
2) Pour the two kinds of detergents into the
detergent tanks. It is recommend to have one
detergent tank filled with All-Purpose detergent,
and the other filled with a more specific cleaning
detergent.
3) The indicator on the detergent dial shows the
amount and the consumption of detergent.Fig.A
4) When using a detergent, the stainless steel
wand must be fitted with the detergent nozzle
(black). See ‘OPERATION SPRAY NOZZLE
USAGE’ on page 14 for instructions on how to
connect detergent nozzle to wand. Fig.B
5) If the throttle lever is not in the fast position, the
injection of the detergent may be decreased or
stopped completely. If this happens, move the
throttle lever towards the left to increase engine
speed and pressure.
Important Note: When you have finished using the detergent injector system, remove the
injector filter from the detergent container and place it in a different larger container containing
only clean water and let the pressure washer run until you no longer see detergent coming out

15 | Page
of the wand. This will prevent detergent from gumming up the wand and reducing pressure for
next use.
USING THE PRESSURE WASHER TO CLEAN:
•Some cleaning jobs can be completed by using
only water, but for most, it is advantageous to use
a detergent to penetrate and remove the dirt more
effectively. When using pressure washer approved
detergent, make sure the surface to clean is dry.
Wetting the surface first is not recommended; it
will dilute the detergent and will reduce the
cleaning effectiveness.
•Avoid hot surfaces or direct sunlight; this will
minimize the chances of the detergent
damaging the painted surface.
•DO NOT let the detergent dry or it may damage
the painted surface. Allow the detergent to remain
on the surface for a short time before rinsing with
clean water under high pressure.
•Position the tip of the wand 6-8” (15-20 cm) away
from the surface to clean at a 45°angle.

MAINTENANCE
WATER INLET FILTER:
•This pressure washer is equipped with a
water inlet filter(A).
•This water filter must be kept clean at all
times or else it will restrict the water flow to
the pressure washer and may damage the
pump.
•Remove the quick connect coupling from the
water inlet, then remove and clean water filter.
•DO NOT operate this pressure washer
without the water inlet filter in place as
deposits could build up internally and affect
the functioning of the unit.
*** See in-store for replacement filters.
ENGINE MAINTENACE:
Engine Oil Replacement
•Engine oil should be replaced after the first
20 hours of operation or after the first month
of use.
•Thereafter, it should be replaced every 100
hours or 6 months.
•To replace engine oil: Loosen the oil gauge
dipstick (A); Place an oil pan underneath drain
hex bolt (B); Remove hex bolt and drain oil.
Once all the oil has completely drained,
retighten the hex bolt.
Recommended Engine Oil
•It is recommended to use SAE10W-30
4-stroke gasoline engine oil.
•Fill with clean engine oil through the oil gauge
dipstick hole to recommended level.
Inspecting, Replacing or Cleaning Spark Plug
•The spark plug should be checked every 100
hours of operation or every 6 months.
To replace or clean spark plug:
A B
A

19 | Page
1) Dismantle the spark plug wire (A) by pulling it
off the spark plug (B). Using the supplied spark
plug wrench, undo the spark plug by turning
counter clockwise.
2) Check to see if there is carbon sediment
build-up. If so, remove it. If the carbon sediment
is excessive, replace the spark plug.
3) Measure the electrode’s clearance using a
feeler gauge. The spark plug electrode
clearance should be between 0.7-0.8 mm. If the
clearance exceeds 0.8 mm, replace the spark
plug. The original spark plug supplied is an
LG F7RTC, you can replace it with an NGK
BP6ES spark plug or equivalent.
4) Reinstall spark plug following instructions in 1)
above in the reverse order.
PRESSURE WASHER STORAGE:
If you plan on storing your pressure washer
for an extended period of time, the following
steps should be followed:
1) Add fuel stabilizer to fuel tank to minimize the
formation of fuel gum deposits during storage.
2) Run engine at least 5 minutes after adding
stabilizer to allow it to enter the fuel system.
NOTE: If a fuel stabilizer is not used, all
gasoline must be drained from the tank and
carburetor to prevent gum deposits from
forming on these parts and causing possible
malfunction of the engine (see instructions on
draining fuel below).
3) Drain engine oil from engine as described in
“Engine Oil Replacement.”
4) Pour approximately one teaspoon of engine oil
through the spark plug hole and pull the recoil
starter slowly until you feel increased pressure
which indicates the piston is on its compression
stroke and leave it in this position. This closes
both the intake and exhaust valves to prevent
the inside of the cylinder from rusting.
5) Use pressure washer antifreeze to ensure that
your pump will not freeze during the winter and
to keep components lubricated for maximum
efficiency. See instructions below on
“Preventing Freezing Damage”.

20 | P a g e
6) Cover the pressure washer and store it in a
clean, well ventilated and dry place. Ensure
storage area is at room temperature.
*** See in-store to purchase fuel stabilizer or
pressure washer antifreeze.
If you wish to drain the fuel instead of adding
fuel stabilizer, please follow these steps:
1) Turn fuel shut-off valve to the “OFF” position.
Remove drain hex bolt (A) from the carburettor
(B).
2) Now turn fuel shut-off valve to the “ON” position
and drain the fuel from the tank, carburettor and
hose.
3) Replace the carburetor drain hex bolt once
the fuel is completely drained.
PREVENTING FREEZING DAMAGE:
•If your pressure washer is subjected to
freezing temperatures, damage could occur.
This type of damage is not covered under
warranty. To avoid possible damage, a small
amount of antifreeze can be used.
•Place the unit on its side with the water inlet
facing upwards. Pour 1/4 cup of antifreeze
into the water inlet.
•Disconnect spark plug wire, and then pull
recoil starter several times to circulate the
antifreeze in the pump system. Reconnect
spark plug wire.
•It is also important to make sure the wand and
all hoses are disconnected and drained of all
water or they may burst.
•When taking pressure washer out of storage,
run water through the system until it runs
clear.
