PRESSURE WASHER
TERMINOLOGY
PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit
of measure for water pressure. Also
used for air pressure, hydraulic
pressure, etc.
GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of
measure for the flow rate of water.
CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by
PSI. GPM x PSI = CU
Bypass Mode: Allows water to
re-circulate within pump when the gun
trigger is not pulled.
Allowing the unit to
run for more than
two minutes without the gun trigger
pulled could cause overheating and
damage to the pump.
Detergent injection system: Mixes
cleaners or cleaning solvents with the
water to improve cleaning
effectiveness.
Water supply: All pressure washers
must have a source of water. The
minimum requirements for a water
supply are 20 PSI and 5 gallons per
minute.
PRESSURE WASHER
OPERATING FEATURES
PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
The pressure setting is preset at the
factory to achieve optimum pressure
and cleaning. If you need to lower the
pressure, it can be accomplished by
these methods.
1. Back away from the surface to
be cleaned. The further away you
are, the less amount of pressure
will be applied to the surface to
be cleaned. High -pressure
HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND
Your pressure washer is equipped with
a multi-adjustable spray wand with
both high and low pressure settings.
The high pressure setting is for
cleaning and rinsing, the low pressure
setting is for applying chemicals or
cleaning solutions to surfaces.
When using the high
pressure setting, DO
NOT allow the jet-like spray to come
in contact with unprotected skin,
eyes, or with any pets or animals.
Serious injury can occur.
Risk of injection or
injury to person. DO
NOT direct discharge stream toward
persons.
For high pressure operation, pull back
the nozzle of the multi-adjustable
spray wand as shown in fig 5.
2. Rotate the nozzle at the end of
the multi-adjustable spray wand
to widen the fan spray. The
wider fan spray will minimize the
pressure on the surface to be
cleaned.
DO NOT attempt to
increase pump
pressure. A higher pressure setting
than the factory set pressure may
damage pump.
3. Reduce the speed of the
gasoline engine (RPM). Slow the
engine down and the water
pressure will go down with it.
Fig. 5

9- ENG A04196
The nozzle at the end of the
multi-adjustable spray wand can be
rotated to change the high pressure
spray pattern from a 0º pencil stream
to a 40º fan spray, see Fig. 6a and 6b.
Markings have been placed on the
nozzle to help you select the spray
pattern.
For low pressure operation, extend the
nozzle of the multi-adjustable spray
wand as shown in Fig 7.

READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS BEFORE STARTING UNIT
When using the high pressure setting, DO NOT allow the
spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with
any pets or animals. Serious injury can occur.
Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to penetrate
human and animal flesh, which could result in amputation or other serious injury.
Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection
injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a
physician immediately!
NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not
smoke when filling fuel tank.
NEVER fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below top of tank to provide
space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and equipment
before starting engine.
NEVER run engine indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.
NEVER carry pressure washer with engine running, turn engine off and allow it
to cool before carrying pressure washer.
DO NOT let hoses come in contact with hot engine muffler during or
immediately after use of your pressure washer. Damage to hoses from contact
with hot engine surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.
NEVER pull water supply hose to move pressure washer. This
could damage hose and/or pump inlet.
DO NOT use hot water, use cold water only.
NEVER turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or
damage to pump will result.
DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two minutes at a time. Pump
operates in bypass mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. If pump is left
in bypass mode for more than two minutes internal components of the pump
can be damaged.
If you do not understand these precautions, please call 1-866-293-WASH
(1-866-293-9274) to speak to a service representative for further
instructions.
The powerful spray
from your pressure
washer is capable of causing damage
to surfaces such as wood, glass,
automobile paint, auto striping and
trim, and delicate objects such as
flowers and shrubs. Before spraying,
check the item to be cleaned to
assure yourself that it is strong
enough to resist damage from the
force of the spray.
