CLEANING

TECHNIQUES

Cleaning Techniques
When cleaning
with the pressure
washer, many
cleaning tasks can be solved with water alone, but
for most tasks, it is advantageous
to use a
detergent
also.
A detergent
ensures
a quick
soaking of the dirt allowing the high pressure water
to penetrate
and remove the dirt more effectively.
APPLICATION OF SOAP OR DEGREASER
1. Apply the solution to a DRY work surface.
On a vertical surface, apply horizontally
from side
to side starting from the bottom to avoid streaking.
NOTE:
Wetting
the
surface
first

END OF OPERATION
End of Operation
When you have completed
use of the chemical
injection system, remove tube from container.
Continue
to run in tow pressure position and
inject
clean water
through
the tube and
injection
system by placing end of tube in a
container
of clean water. Continue to run until
it is thoroughly
cleaned.

MAINTENANCE
CONNECTIONS
Connection
on pressure washer hoses, gun and
spray wand should be cleaned
regularly
and
lubricated
with the manufacturer's
recommended
grease to prevent
leakage and damage to the
o-rings.
NOZZLE
Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump pressure
to be too high and cleaning is immediately
required.

Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight
to minimize the chances of the chemical damaging
painted surfaces.
Damage may occur to painted
surface
if chemical
is allowed
to dry on the
surface.
Hold nozzle
far enough
away
from
surface to prevent damage to the surface.
2. Allow chemical
short time before

to remain on the surface for a
rinsing.

3. Rinse with clean water under high pressure. On
a vertical surface, first rinse from the bottom up,
then rinse from the top down. Hold nozzle 6 to 8
inches from the work surface at a 45 ° angle using
the flat spray as a peeling toot rather than a scrub
brush.
APPLICATION

OF WAX

1. Immediately
after cleaning,
apply wax.
injection tube in container
of wax.

Place

2. Apply the wax sparingly in an even layer. Apply
to wet surfaces
from bottom
up for even
distribution
and to avoid streaking.
3. Remove the suction tube from the wax bottle
rinse off the surplus wax.
NOTE: IF SURPLUS WAX IS NOT REMOVED, A HAZY
FINISH MAY RESULT.
4. Wipe dry to reduce water

spotting.

A nozzle cleaner must only be used when the
spray wand is disconnected
from the gun or
personal injury could be occur
1. Separate the wand from the gun.
2. Clear the nozzle with a small rigid piece of wire
such as a paper clip.
3. Flush the nozzle backwards with water.
4. Reconnect the wand to the gun.
Restart
the pressure
washer and depress the
trigger
on the spray gun. If the nozzle is stilt
plugged or partially
plugged, repeat above
instructions 1-4.
If the previous procedure does not clear the
nozzle, replace with a new nozzle.
WATER SCREEN
The pressure washer is equiped with a water inlet
screen to protect
the pump. If the screen is not
kept clean, it wilt restrict the flow of water to the
pressure washer and may cause damage to the
pump. Do not damage the screen white removing
or cleaning screen. Any foreign particles
entering
the pump may damage the pump. Do not operate
pressure washer without the screen in place.
Remove the screen and backflush
to remove
impurities from screen. Replace immediately.

MAINTENANCE
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
During the winter
months,
rare atmospheric
conditions may develope which will cause an icing
condition
in the carburetor.
If this develops, the
engine may run rough, Lose power and may stall.
This temporary
condition
can be overcome
by
deflecting
some of the hot air from the engine
over the carburetor
area.
NOTE: Refer to the engine
for service
and maintenance

manufacturer's
of the engine.

2. Drain gasoline from fuel tank,
valve and carburetor.

3. Pour about one teaspoon of engine oil through
the spark plug hole, puLL the recoil
starter
sLowLy until you feel increased
pressure which
indicates the piston is on its compression
stroke
and leave it in that position.
This c[osesboth
the intake and exhaust valves to prevent the
inside of the cylinder from rusting.

STORAGE

PUMP STORAGE
If you must store your pressure washer in a Location
where the temperature
is below 320F, you can
minimize the chance of damage to your machine by
utilizing
the foLLowing procedure:
1. Shut off water supply and relieve pressure in the
spray gun by depressing the trigger. Disconnect
the garden hose from the pressure washer, but
Leave the high pressure hose connected.
2. Tip the unit on its side with the inlet connection
pointing up.
3. Insert a smaLL funnel (to prevent spiLLing) into
the inlet and pour in approximately
1/4 cupof
RV antifreeze.
4. Disconnect

spark plug wire.

5. Without connecting
garden hose puLL the recoil
several times to circulate
the antifreeze
in the
pump system.
6. Disconnect

spark plug wire.

Prior to restarting,
thaw out any possible ice
from the pressure washer hoses, spray gun and
wand.

Another method of reducing risks of freeze
damage is to drain your pressure washer as
foLLows:
1. Stop the pressure washer and detach supply
hose and high pressure hose. Squeeze the
trigger of the discharge gun to drain aLLwater
from the wand and hose.
2. Restart the pressure washer and Let it run
briefly (about 5 seconds) until water no Longer
discharge from the high pressure outlet.
ENGINE STORAGE
When the pressure washer is not being operated or
is being stored more than one month, follow these
instructions:
1. RepLenish engine oil to upper LeveL.

fuel Line, fuel

4. Cover the pressure washer and store in a clean,
dry place that is weLL ventilated
away from
open flame or sparks.
NOTE: The use of a fuel additive,
such as
STA-BIL, or an equivalent,
will
minimize
the
formulation
of fuel gum deposits during storage.
Such an additive may be added to the gasoline
in the fuel tank of the engine, or to the gasoline
in a storage container.
