HOW TO USE PRESSURE WASHER
If you have any problems operating your pressure
washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-222-3136.
To Start Pressure Washer
To start your engine-powered pressure washer for the
first time, follow these instructions step-by-step. This
starting information also applies whenever you start
the engine after you have let the pressure washer sit
idle for at least a day.
1. Place pressure washer near an outside water
source capable of supplying water at a flow rate
greater than 5.0 gallons per minute and no less than
20 PSI at pressure washer end of garden hose.
2. Check that high pressure hose is tightly connected
to spray gun and pump. See "Assembling Your
Pressure Washer" for illustrations.
3. Make sure unit is in a level position.
4. Connect garden hose to water inlet on pressure
washer pump. Turn ON the water.
CAUTION!
DO NOT run the pump without the water
supply connected and turned on. You must follow this
caution or the pump will be damaged.
5. Squeeze trigger on gun to purge pump system of
air and impurities.
6. Attach nozzle extension to spray gun. Tighten by
hand.
7. Choose spray tip you want to use and insert it into
nozzle extension. See "How to Use Spray Tips".
8. Engage safety latch to spray gun trigger.
9. Rotate fuel shut-off valve to "On" position (fully
counter-clockwise).

NOTE: For a warm engine, be sure the choke lever is
in the "Run" position.
12. Grasp handle and pull recoil starter lightly until
you feel some resistance, then pull briskly.
13. Return recoil starter slowly. DO NOT let rope
"snap back" against starter.
14. When engine starts, slowly move choke lever to
"Run" position as engine warms. If engine falters,
move choke lever to "Choke" position, then to the
"Run" position.
15. If engine fires, but does not continue to run,
squeeze trigger on spray gun to relieve internal
pump pressure. Move choke lever to the "Run"
position, and repeat steps 12 through 14.
16. If engine fails to start after six pulls, move choke
lever to "Run" position, and repeat steps
12 through 14.
NOTE: If the recoil starter is hard to pull, it may be
necessary to squeeze the gun trigger to relieve
internal pump pressure.
Avoid injury from kickback.
• Squeeze trigger on spray gun each time recoil starter is
pulled and engine fails to start.
