POWER SUPPLY CORD REPLACEMENT
If replacement of the power supply cord is necessary, this
must be done by an authorized service center in order to
avoid a safety hazard.

PUMP LUBRICATION

The pump on this unit is lubricated with a sufficient amount
of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal
operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is
required.

PUMP MAINTENANCE

Routinely make a visual inspection of the pump. If you notice
any leaking of lubricant around the pump seals, take the
pressure washer to an authorized service center for repair.
There are no user serviceable parts to the pressure washer
pump. Any attempt to service or alter the pump may dam-
age the pressure washer and void your product warranty.

NOZZLE MAINTENANCE

See Figure 24.
Excessive pump pressure (a pulsing sensation felt while
squeezing the trigger) may be the result of a clogged or
dirty nozzle.
 Turn off the pressure washer, disconnect from power
supply, and shut off the water supply. Pull trigger to
release water pressure.
 Remove the nozzle from the spray wand.
WARNING:
NEVER remove nozzles without first turning off the mo-
tor, disconnecting from power supply, relieving the water
pressure in the trigger handle, and locking the lock out
on the trigger handle. NEVER point the nozzle at your
face or at others. The quick-connect feature contains
small springs that could eject the nozzle with some force.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in an eye
injury or other serious personal injury.

or from the outside to the inside).
 Reconnect the nozzle to the spray wand.
 Turn on the water supply and start the motor.
STORING THE PRESSURE WASHER
See Figures 25 - 26.
NOTE: Regular use of pump protector will give you better

Store in a dry, covered area where the weather can't damage it.
It is important to store this product in a frost-free area. Al-
ways empty water from all hoses, the pump, and the soap
tank before storing.
 Make sure the on/off switch is in the OFF position.
