OPERATION
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 equals CU.
Please contact us for further information at www.allpartsinc.com

12- ENG
Bypass Mode: Allows water to re-circulate within the pump when the gun trigger is
not pulled. This feature allows the operator to release the trigger gun and reposition
themselves without having to turn the engine off in between cleaning actions.
WARNING: Do not allow the unit to run for more than two minutes without
the gun trigger being pulled. This could cause overheating and damage to
the pump. When the temperature inside the pump rises too high, the thermal
relief valve will open and release a spray of water from the pump to lower the
internal temperature. The valve will then close.
Thermal Relief Valve (L, Fig. 5): When the temperature inside the 5
L
pump rises too high, this valve will open and release a gush of water
in an effort to lower the temperature inside the pump. The valve will
then close.
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. If your water
source is a well, the garden hose length can only be 30ft. (9m) max.
WARNING: To reduce the possibility of contamination always protect
against backflow when connected to a potable water system.
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 meth-
ods.
1. Back away from the surface to be cleaned. The further away you are, the
less the pressure will be on the surface to be cleaned.
2. Change to the 25˚ nozzle. This nozzle delivers a less powerful stream of water
and a wider spray pattern. Refer to How To Use Spray Wand.
NOTICE: DO NOT attempt to increase pump pressure. A higher pressure setting
than the factory set pressure may damage pump.
HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND
The nozzles for the spray wand are stored in the nozzle holder on the panel assembly.
Colors on the panel identify nozzle location and spray pattern. Refer to the following
chart to choose the correct nozzle for the job to be performed.
CHANGING NOZZLES ON SPRAY WAND (FIG. 6)
DANGER: Risk of fluid injection. Do not direct discharge stream toward
persons, unprotected skin, eyes or any pets or animals. Serious injury will
occur.
WARNING: Flying objects could cause risk of serious injury. Do not attempt
to change nozzles while pressure washer is running. Turn engine off before
changing nozzles.
1. Pull quick-connect coupler (E) back and insert nozzle (K). 6
KE
2. Release quick-connect coupler and twist nozzle to make

the pump. When the temperature inside the pump rises too high, the thermal
relief valve will open and release a spray of water from the pump to lower the
internal temperature. The valve will then close.
WARNING: Risk of injury from spray. Always engage 11
O
the trigger lock (O) when gun is not in use. Failure to do so
could cause accidental spraying.

STORAGE
ENGINE
Consult the Engine Owner's Manual for manufacturer’s recommendations for
storage.
TO PREVENT FUEL-RELATED PROBLEMS
1. Add Ethanol ShieldTM (sold separately) fuel stabilizer following the manufactur-
er’s instructions. When adding a gasoline stabilizer, fill the fuel tank with fresh
gasoline. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel deterioration
during storage. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be sure that it
contains only fresh gasoline.
2. After adding a gasoline stabilizer, run the engine outdoors for 10 minutes
to be sure that treated gasoline has replaced the untreated gasoline in the
carburetor.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
4. Continue to run the engine until it stops from the lack of fuel in the carburetor
fuel bowl. Running time should be less than 3 minutes.
PUMP
The manufacturer recommends using SIMPSON®/ POWERWASHER®Pump
Guard or equivalent when storing the unit for more than 30 days and/or when
freezing temperatures are expected. SIMPSON®/ POWERWASHER® Pump Guard
is environmentally friendly.
NOTE: Using pump guard helps provide proper lubrication to the internal seals of
the pump regardless of temperature or environment.
NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Use only SIMPSON®/ POWERWASHER®
Pump Guard or equivalent. Other products could be corrosive and/or contain alco-
hol which may cause pump damage.
1. Turn off pressure washer and disconnect hoses from pump.
2. Unscrew bottle valve from Pump Guard bottle and remove seal.
3. Screw bottle valve back onto bottle.
4. Attach bottle to water inlet of pump.

two people.
PRESSURE WASHER
1. Drain all water from high pressure hose and wrap it onto hose wrap.
2. Drain all water from the spray gun and wand by holding spray gun in a vertical
position with nozzle end pointing down and squeezing trigger. Store in gun
holder.
3. Wrap up and secure detergent siphon hose so it is protected from damage.
