STEAMASTER HIGH PRESSURE WAS RISK ASSESSMENT
MODELS:
In line with the National Occupation Health & Safety Commission’s requirements the data below applies to the
S teamaster range of high pressure washer models:
 Hurricane 1528E
 Hurricane 2130E
 Hurricane 2035E
DESCRIPTION:
Engine drive high pressure cold water pressure washers designed for professional cleaning applications.
MATERIAL CONSTRUCTION:
S teamaster Hurricane pressure washers are mounted on heavy duty trolley mounted frames. They consist of
a quality internal combustion petrol engine driving a triplex style three piston high pressure pump. The
machines are supplied with wheels for ease of portability and manoeuvrability. The machines can be supplied
with hose reels and up to 45 metres of high pressure hose to increase operator convenience.
RISK RANKING METHOD:
Risk is the combination of the likelihood of a specific unwanted event and the potential consequences if it should
occur.
RISK RANKING METHOD:
For each event, the appropriate probability (a letter A to E) and consequences (a number 1 to 5) is selected.
RISK RANKING TABLE:
The consequences (loss outcomes) are combined with
the probability (of those outcomes) in the risk ranking
table to identify the risk rank of each loss event (e.g.
a consequence of 3 with a probability of B yields a
risk rank of 9).
The table yields a risk rank from 1 to 25 for each set
of probabilities and consequences. A rank of 1 is the
highest magnitude or risk that is a highly likely, very
serious event.
A rank of 25 represents the lowest magnitude of risk,
an almost impossible very low consequence event.
Controls must be taken to either eliminate or
minimise the risk.

Before proceeding with assembly of your new Steamaster pressure washer, check that all parts listed below
are included.
1 Gun handle assembly and high pressure hose
1 Lance and nozzle assembly
A. Machine Preparation (initial start-up)
1. Check the oil in the pump and gearbox.
Note separate reservoirs. With the machine on a level surface the oil
lever should cover the red spot in the oil level sight glass on the side
of the machine. If necessary, top up with SAE 75W-90. Do not mix
different grades of oil as this may affect the machines performance. If
alternative oil is used, first empty out oil by unscrewing drain plug in
bottom of machine.
2. Ensure breather plug is fitted to pump.
WARNING: Before operation ensure top mounted travel plug is
replaced by breather plug. Failure to fit breather and keep clean can
result in over pressuring of oil chamber (crank case) and can blow oil
seals. This will void warranty.
3. Note that the gearbox has a separate oil reservoir. Gearbox oil is
SAE 90 gear oil.
4. Connect battery leads on electric start machines.
5. Check oil level in engine and fill with proper grade oil if necessary.
(SAE 10W-30 for Honda engines, check engine manual for other
makes)
6. Check fuel level and fill if necessary. (unleaded petrol)
7. Assemble gun/lance assembly.
HEAVY DUTY LANCE: To assemble the lance, insert Section B into Section A and screw together and check
nozzles have been fitted to end of lance (C & D).

ASSEMBLY AND PREPARATION FOR USE
A. Machine Preparation (initial start-up)

Page 6 Steamaster Hurricane … Operation & Maintenance Manual
1. Connect high pressure hose to machine outlet.
2. If optional low pressure downstream, in-line chemical injector is to be used, connect the injector tube to
the detergent inlet and place the other end of the tube, with the strainer attached, in the chemical con-
tainer (not supplied).
3. Connect gun/lance assembly to high pressure hose.
4. Check inlet water filter is clean then connect water supply hose to machine. Use a 25mm (minimum)
hose .
Incoming water supply must deliver double the flow of the machine. If questionable, check supply at
machine. If supply is insufficient, do not operate from this outlet. For residential use, the outlet closest to
the meter will usually deliver the highest flow rate. Connect only to clean town water supply.
Warning: Do not operate from tank or pond. Doing so will cavitate the pump causing damage. Cavitation
or pump starvation is not covered by warranty. Cavitation is a phenomenon causing vacuum pockets to
form within the pump that eventually implode under pressure pitting the internal pump surfaces.
Fitting instructions for optional hose reel
1. Securely clamp the hose reel mounting bar across the top of the using
the two sets of nuts and bolts supplied. Steamaster recommends
using Loctite on the bolts to prevent them vibrating loose.
2. Fit hose reel to the mounting bar using the four sets of nuts and bolts
supplied. Ensure all bolts are securely tightened and use Loctite to
prevent them vibrating loose.
The reel should be positioned so that it rotates fore/aft to aid fitting
whip hose.
3. Connect whip hose to high pressure outlet on pump.
4. Fit handle to reel.
5. Fit gun to hose using quick coupler nipple (3/4 GM x M22)
Start up machine (see below) and check for leaks. All leaks must be
rectified before using machine.
C. Before starting the machine
OPERATE IN WELL VENTILATED AREAS ONLY.
1. Ensure machine is level
2. Turn on water supply.
3. Pull gun trigger until water starts to flow in a steady steam then release trigger.
D. Starting the engine (for Honda , refer to engine manual for other engine options)
1. Ensure fuel valve is open 2.
Move the choke on the engine to the closed position (see fig. 1). If engine is warm, move choke half-way.
3. Turn engine ON/OFF switch to ON 4.
Hold the gun trigger on.
5. Start engine, either turn engine key or pull the recoil starter grip lightly until resistance is felt, then pull
briskly.
6. After engine starts, release the gun trigger and slowly open the choke.
7. Warm up engine for 3 minutes without load.

E. Pressure washing
WEAR PROPER FACE PROTECTION WHEN OPERATING PRESSURE WASHER!
1. For high pressure jetting rotate side grip on dual lance backwards until it stops. Fine control of pressure/
flow can be made with small adjustments to the rotation of the grip. There is no pressure adjustment
available on single lance options.
2. When low pressure and high flow is required, including detergent application, unwind grip two complete
turns. Adjust the detergent control on the pump as required.
NOTE: Check the system for water leaks, fuel leaks, oil leaks, hose kinks, etc. Correct any problems before
proceeding.
Machine is now ready for operation.
1. Prepare pressure washer detergent solution as required by manufacturer.
2. Place detergent siphon tub/filter into solution.
3. Adjust double lance to low pressure setting.
4. Apply cleaning solution to a dry surface, starting at lower portion of areas to be washed and work upward,
using long overlapping strokes.
5. Allow time to detergent to activate and then rinse off. DO NOT allow detergent to dry on.
IMPORTANT: You must flush the injection system after each use by placing siphon hose into a bucket of
clean water, then run pressure washer in low pressure for 2 minutes.
G. Stopping the machine
1. If using the detergent injector, flush out the chemical by running clean water through the system.
2. Allow machine to run for 1 minute without load to cool before stopping.
3. Turn engine ON/OFF switch to OFF
4. If your machine has a recoil start, pull recoil start until compression resistance is felt. Store the machine in
this position to help prevent valve warpage or sticking.
5. Close fuel valve.
FAILURE TO CLOSE THE FUEL VALVE ON THE ENGINE CAN CAUSE FUEL LEAKAGE WHEN THE MACHINE
IS BEING TRANSPORTED!
6. Turn off water supply.
7. Pull gun trigger to release all pressure in the system, then LOCK THE TRIGGER.
8. Hoses may now be disconnected from the machine.
Failure to release pressure before disconnecting the hose quick coupler will result in the quick coupler o-
ring seal blowing out. This o-ring must be replaced before operating machine.
WARNING .... DO NOT RUN EXCESSIVE BY-PASS
SWITCH MACHINE OFF WITHIN TWO MINUTES OF CEASING OPERATION AS EXCESSIVE BY-PASS CAN CAUSE
HEAT BUILD UP IN PUMP AND SUBSEQUENT DAMAGE.
EXCESSIVE BY PASS RUNNING VOIDS WARRANTY!!
HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY CAN PENETRATE THE SKIN AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY!
NEVER POINT THE SPRAY GUN AT YOURSELF, OTHER PEOPLE OR ANIMALS.
SHOULD SPRAY PENETRATE THE SKIN, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY!
E. Pressure washing
F. Applying detergent (not available on Hurricane 2035E)
G. Stopping the machine

Page 8 Steamaster Hurricane … Operation & Maintenance Manual
UNLOADER SETTING
The high pressure unloader on the machine is factory set to operate the pump at it’s rated pressure.
DO NOT ADJUST. Tampering with the unloader will void warranty and can be dangerous.
Warning: check nozzles and replace if worn
If pressure drops off, check nozzle for wear. Nozzles should be replaced on a regular basis (every
month for machines in regular use, every 3 months for machines used intermittently). Using the
machine with the incorrect nozzle size or worn nozzle will void warranty and can be dangerous to the
operator.
AFTER EACH USE
If cleaning agents have been mixed with the incoming water, it is essential to flush the machine with clean water
after use.
If there is a danger of freezing anti-freeze should be mixed with the flush water or the machine must be
completely drained.
After the final flush stop the machine. DO NOT allow the machine to idle for more than 15 seconds. This is
particularly important when there is a danger of freezing. Do not run for longer without water supply.
STORAGE
Store the washer in an upright position, preferably drained of water if there is a danger of freezing (or fill with
anti-freeze).
PUMP CRANKCASE LUBRICATION
Proper pressure washer pump crankcase lubrication will help extend the working life of the machine. Follow
these important guidelines. We recommend keeping a simple service log book.
 Change oil in pump after initial 50 hour run-in period. (SAE 75W-90)
 Change pump oil every 3 months, use high quality oil. (SAE 75W-90)
 Pump oil level can be checked with the dip stick under the breather cap or by viewing the oil sight gauge
where fitted. The oil level is correct if level is in the centre of the gauge. If oil level is low, fill to correct
level with recommended oil (SAE 75W-90). DO NOT OVERFILL CRANKCASE!
Replace oil in gearbox (separate chamber) with SAE 90 gear oil every three months.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
 Keep filter in supply hose connection clean, rinse regularly.
 Use correct size nozzles for machine and replace when worn, check serial tag for correct size.
 Drain water from pressure hoses, gun/lance assembly and accessories after use.
 Protect pump from freezing. Failure to remove water from the pump in freezing temperatures will result in
damaged pump manifold.
 Use ONLY injector of the size and type designed for this model.
 DO NOT tamper with unloader valve adjustment or alter engine speed.
 DO NOT siphon chemicals through the pump, it is designed for water only.
 Incoming water supply must not exceed 60ºC, otherwise pumps seal damage could result
Follow engine manufactures guidelines for engine maintenance. (see engine manual)
