Check High Pressure Hose
The high pressure hose can develop leaks from wear,
kinking, or abuse. Inspect the hose each time before using it.
Checkfor cuts, leaks, abrasions or bulging of cover, damage
or movement of couplings. If any of these conditions exist,
replace the hose immediately.
WARNING The high pressure stream of water that this
_
equipment produces could cut through skin and
its underlying tissues, resulting in serious injury
and possible amputation.
* NEVERrepair high pressure hose. Replace it.
* Replacement hose rating MUST equal or exceed
maximum pressure rating of unit.
Check SprayGun
Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and make sure
it is secure. Test the trigger (A) by pressing the trigger lock
button (B) and making sure the trigger "springs back" into
place when you releaseit. You should not be able to press
the trigger without pressing the trigger lock button. Replace
spray gun immediately if it fails any of these tests.
Spray Tip Maintenance
Excessivepump pressure can cause a pulsing sensation felt
while squeezing the spray gun trigger. The principal cause of
excessive pump pressure is a spray tip clogged or restricted
with foreign materials such as dirt, etc. A clogged spray tip
could lead to pump cycling ON/OFFor not turning on even
when there is some flow.
To correct the problem, immediately clean the spray tip by
following these instructions:
1. Press the master ON/OFF switch to the OFF(0) position.
Remove power cord plug from electrical outlet.
2. Disconnect water supply at the electric pressure washer.
3. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction, press trigger
lock button and squeeze spray gun trigger to release
retained high water pressure.

Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when motor is
stopped and water is disconnected, which could result in
serious injury.
* Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray
gun while system is pressurized.
* ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction, squeeze
spray gun trigger to releasehigh pressure, every time
you turn off pressure washer.
4. Removespray tip from end of plastic wand.
5. Use a small paper clip to free any foreign material
clogging or restricting any of the spray tips.
6. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by back
flushing water through plastic wand. Back flush between
30 to 60 seconds.
7. Reinstall spray tip into plastic wand.
8. Reconnect plastic wand to spray gun.
9. Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet. Check
that high pressure hose is connected to spray gun. Turn
on water.
10. Plug power cord into electrical outlet and press the
master ON/OFFswitch to the pressure washer ON (I)
position.
11.Test the electric pressure washer by operating with each
spray tip.
Pumpand Motor Maintenance
The electric pressure washer does not require any
maintenanceto the pump or motor. Both assemblies are pre-
lubricated and sealed, requiring no additional lubrication ever.
