If water has frozen in the pressure washer, thaw the pressure washer in a warm room before starting. DO NOT pour hot water on or into the pump; internal parts will be damaged. 1. Check engine oil levels. Add oil as necessary. 2. Check fuel level. Add unleaded gasoline (rated 86 octane or higher) as required DO NOT refuel a hot engine. Refueling a hot engine could cause a fire. Use only fresh, clean regular or unleaded gasoline. Close the fuel shutoff valve during refueling. 3. Attach a garden hose to the inlet side of the pump and connect it to the water supply. Use a hose with an internal diameter (I.D.) of 5/8” (1.58 cm) and a length of 50 ft. (15 m) or less. Some local plumbing codes require backflow prevention when connecting to a fresh water supply. Install a backflow preventer upstream from the pump if necessary. a. If inlet water pressure is over 100 psi, install a regulating water valve at the garden hose connection. b. Do not exceed 100° F (38° C) inlet water temperature. NOTE: The inlet water supply must have a minimum flow rate of 5 gpm (19 lpm). 4. Turn the water supply ON. Never run the unit dry. Be sure the water supply is completely turned on before operating the unit. 5. Trigger the gun until water sprays smoothly from the tip indicating that all air is purged from the system. Lock the trigger safety latch. 6. Open the fuel valve by turning the knob counterclockwise until it stops. Close the choke (if engine is cold) by moving the choke ring fully to the right. 7. Start the engine (See Figure 10). Unlock the trigger safety latch on the gun. Grasp the starter rope and brace one foot on the chassis. Point the gun in a safe direction. While squeezing the trigger on the gun, pull the starter rope rapidly and firmly (See Figure 11). Continue holding the rope as it returns. Repeat these steps until the engine starts. Figure 11 - Start the engine When pulling the starter rope, make ! CAUTION sure to keep your hand and arm clear of the engine and cart components. Never let the starter rope return by itself. Doing so could jam the recoil system. 8. If the engine does not start after two or three pulls or if the rope is hard to pull, squeeze the gun trigger to release the pressure that has built up in the high pressure hose. Repeat Steps 7 and 8 until the engine starts. 9. Move control to “RUN” position. 3. Initial High Pressure Rinse Spray the cleaning surface with water to clear off any dirt or grime that may have collected on the surface. Doing so allows the detergent to attack the deep down dirt that has worked its way into the cleaning surface. ANGLE TO THE CLEANING SURFACE When spraying water against a surface, you can generate maximum impact by striking the surface head on. However, this type of impact can cause dirt particles to embed in the surface and can prevent the desired cleaning action. The optimum angle for spraying water against a cleaning surface is 45 degrees (see Figure 12). Spray water against a surface at a 45 degree angle to achieve the most beneficial impact force and to efficiently remove debris. 7 Pressure Washer Operation (Continued) Figure 12 - Optimum angle to cleaning surface DISTANCE FROM CLEANING SURFACE The distance between the spray tip and the cleaning surface is another factor that affects the impact force of the water. The impact force of the water increases as the spray tip is moved closer to the surface. HOW TO AVOID DAMAGING SURFACES Damage to cleaning surfaces occurs because the impact force of the water exceeds the durability of the surface. You can vary the impact force by controlling the spray tip angle to the cleaning surface and the distance from the cleaning surface and by changing the spray tip. NEVER use a narrow high impact stream on a surface that is susceptible to damage. Avoid spraying windows with a narrow high impact stream. Doing so may break the window. The most sure way to avoid damaging surfaces is to follow these steps: 1. Before triggering the gun, make sure the quick connect tip you are using is appropriate for the application. 2. Place the spray tip approximately 4-5 feet (1,22-1,52 m) away from the cleaning surface. Then hold the lance and spray tip at a 45 degree angle to the cleaning surface. Trigger the gun. 3. Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the distance to the cleaning surface until optimum cleaning efficiency is achieved without damaging the surface. The color of the tip shows what spray angle it is: Red – 0° – Maximum Duty* Yellow – 15° – Heavy Duty Green – 25° – General Duty* White – 40° – Light Duty Black – 65° – Low Pressure Detergent * = Not Included 4. Detergent Application NOTE: Use only detergents formulated for pressure washers.Test detergent in an inconspicuous area before use. DETERGENTS The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time and assist in the removal of difficult stains. Many detergents are customized for pressure washer use on specific cleaning tasks. Pressure washer detergents ...
