OPERATION
USING PUMP PROTECTOR
See Figure 20.
Regular use of a commercially available pump protector
prolongs the life of the pressure washer by removing hard
water mineral deposits, lubricating pump seals and pistons,
and preventing freeze damage. Pump protector should be
added to the unit after every use and before storage. Pump
protector can be purchased at the retailer where you pur-
chased your pressure washer, or by calling customer service.
The instructions that follow are typical for adding pump
protector but you should always verify the specific instruc-
tions provided by the manufacturer of the pump protector.
Turn off the pressure washer engine and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Disconnect garden hose and high pressure hose.
Unscrew threaded top from pump protector bottle and
remove paper seal from bottle. Reinstall top on bottle and
tighten securely.
NOTE: The rubber seal should remain inside the threaded
top. If it comes out, be sure to replace before reinstalling
the top.
Remove bottle cap and attach threaded end of bottle
securely to pressure washer pump water intake.
Squeeze bottle to inject contents into pump.
With engine switch off, pull starter grip and rope to cycle
pump, then squeeze bottle again to guarantee complete
coverage.
Pump is protected when the protector fluid exits the pump
outlet.
MOVING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figure 21.
NOTE: Never lift or carry this product using the moving
handle and never place the unit in any position other than
upright on its wheels.
Turn the pressure washer off.
Tilt the machine toward you slightly until it balances on
the wheels then roll the machine to the desired position.
Do not tilt forward or sideways when moving.
DO NOT attempt to move the unit by pulling on any of
the hoses.
