SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP

Operating Instructions

Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this

manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.

Work Piece and Work Area Set Up

1. Designate a work area that is clean and well-lit.

The work area must not allow access by children

or pets to prevent distraction and injury.

2. CHECK THE WATER SUPPLY. Prior to using the

Pressure Washer for the first time, it is ESSENTIAL

to verify that the water supply is adequate.

The Pressure Washer needs TWICE the water supply

(or volume) than the listed water output (1.3 GPM).

This Pressure Washer will need about 2.6-3 GPM to

operate correctly and efficiently. If the water is being

supplied by a well/pump, make certain that the well/

pump produces enough water to keep up with the

Pressure Washer’s water demands. Water supply

hoses should be heavy duty to withstand the forces

involved. Water hoses up to 25' long must be 5/8" ID.

Water hoses up to 50' long must be 3/4" ID. Do not

use hoses longer than 50'. The more minerals in the

water (the harder the water) you use, the more often

mineral buildup will need to be cleaned out from the

nozzles. The flow rate of the water supply must never

be allowed to fall below 2.6 GPM.

To determine the water supply’s flow rate: Run the

water at full for one minute into a 5 gallon container,

and measure the amount of water in the container.

CAUTION! If the Pressure Washer is run

with an inadequate water supply, the pump

will cavitate. Cavitation causes the pump

to operate loudly and will damage it.

3. ARRANGE FOR A PROPER ELECTRICAL SUPPLY.

This unit uses a large amount of current, especially

during start-up. Turn off power switch, then connect

this unit only to a dedicated household circuit

capable of providing ample current to it. A dedicated

circuit has no additional loads (running devices)

connected to it; shut off any appliances that slow

down or lights that dim while the washer is running.

For best results, connect the plug to that circuit’s

outlet that is nearest to the circuit breaker panel.

4. PLAN OUT THE JOB: Plan out what areas will be

cleaned, how many sessions will be necessary,

and how long the individual sessions of work will

need to be. Plan to clean the higher portions

first, because the higher portions will typically

remain cleaner while the other areas are cleaned.

Plan a safe direction for runoff to flow while the job

is being performed, and plan on working your way

in that direction. You will have a clearer idea of the

time involved to clean the area after doing a test run.

5. Clear the cleaning area of all objects that

are not being cleaned. If any water prone or

delicate items cannot be moved, protect them.

If detergent is to be used, cover or remove any

plants or animals that may be damaged by the

detergent. Disconnect power to and protect any

nearby electrical wiring from water and spray.

6. Place the Pressure Washer in a location which is

protected from any water from the cleaning area.

Select a location higher than the cleaning area.

The pressure washer’s location should be

close enough so that the hose will reach

every portion of the job to be done with some

slack for movement. Also, select an area

with proper access to a dedicated circuit.

7. Route the power cord along a safe route

to reach the work area without creating a

tripping hazard or exposing the power cord

to possible damage. The power cord must

reach the work area with enough extra length

to allow free movement while working.

Operating Tips

Become Familiar With your Machine:

1. Before beginning work, set aside enough time to

familiarize yourself with this machine’s cleaning

rate and capacity along with all instructions

and precautions contained in this section,

along with the Operating Instruction and

Controls and Features sections.

2. This unit is intended for various light to moderate

cleaning applications. If deeper cleaning is desired, it

can be attained at times, however this is done at the

expense of speed. This unit is not intended for paint

stripping or deep concrete cleaning applications.

3. Clean a test area to satisfaction before

proceeding with the entire area, as stated

in Cleaning Recommendations.

4. This unit has several settings and adjustments

that effect the speed of cleaning and the

water force applied to cleaning. Good

guidelines to keep in mind are:

WIDE STREAM =

QUICKER COVERAGE BUT

LIGHTER CLEANING.

NARROW STREAM =

DEEPER CLEANING BUT

SLOWER COVERAGE.

Cleaning Recommendations

5. Clean an inconspicuous test area first. Always begin

with the fan spray at a distance of about 3-5 feet from

the surface being cleaned to avoid damaging it. Clear

the test area of people and water-sensitive objects.

If a pressure washing detergent is to be used, apply

the detergent to this area as well. After cleaning this

area, switch off the pressure washer and inspect

the area carefully for any damage or discoloration.

If any damage is noted from the pressure setting,

use a lighter setting when cleaning the rest of the

area. If damage or discoloration is noted from

the detergent, do not use it when cleaning.

6. First, pass over the area with a light cleaning,

and then more thoroughly clean it.

For a vertical or sloped surface:

a. Wash from the top down.

b. If possible, direct the stream in the same

direction as the slope towards a draining area.

This will enable better drainage and

therefore better cleaning.

For a flat surface:

a. If a thin layer of water accumulates on

the surface, periodically use the stream to

direct this water towards the drainage.

b. After the major cleaning is done, sweep

the surface with the stream to help direct

loose debris toward the drainage.

7. If detergent is to be applied: Only use pressure

washing detergent in the soap dispenser; other

detergents will clog the dispenser. Do not add

detergent to the body of the pressure washer.

Spray the surface with detergent until evenly

covered, then turn off the machine and water

source, release pressure, and remove the soap

dispenser. Allow the detergent several minutes to

sit and soak into the work surface; this will improve

cleaning efficiency. Turn on the water source and

power, and rinse off all detergent completely.

8. Hold the Spray Gun at about a 45° angle and

steadily sweep the stream back and forth; if a

severe, head-on angle is used, dirt may imbed

in the surface being cleaned. Follow a steady,

consistent pace during cleaning; this will help prevent

stripes or discoloration afterwards. If streaking or

uneven cleaning is noted at the end of a project,

go over the edges of the streaks with a wide fan

pattern to help blend these lighter areas in.

9. If several different surfaces are to be cleaned,

be careful not to damage any of the less solid

surfaces while trying to clean the harder ones.

This is especially a concern when cleaning tile and

grout, bricks and mortar, or stones and mortar.

10. If wood is being cleaned, be careful to avoid damage.

Wood will usually require resurfacing (sanding)

and re-coat with a surface protectant (wood, stain,

varnish) after it has dried. Try to avoid leaving water

on a wooden surface; doing so can harm the surface.

Maintenance and Servicing

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:

Turn the Power Switch of the tool off, unplug the tool from its electrical outlet,

shut off the water supply and safely discharge all residual water pressure from

the unit before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM TOOL FAILURE:

Do not use damaged equipment. If abnormal noise or vibration

occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

1. Before each use, inspect the general condition

of the Pressure Washer. Check for loose screws,

misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged

electrical wiring, damaged High Pressure Hose,

damaged accessories, and any other condition that

may affect its safe operation. If abnormal noise or

vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before

further use. Do not use damaged equipment.

2. To clean, remove excess water from the Pump by

tipping the unit to drain any remaining water from

the inlet and outlet fittings. Drain the Detergent

Dispenser and flush with running water. Use only a

clean cloth and mild detergent to clean the body of

the Pressure Washer. Do not use solvents.

Do not immerse any part of the tool in liquid.

Dry off any remaining water on all parts and fittings.

Remove mineral deposits from the nozzle using

a thin, stiff wire brush. The more minerals that

are dissolved in the water (the harder the water)

you use, the more often mineral buildup will

need to be cleaned out from inside nozzle.

3. In areas that have hard water

(water rich in minerals such as calcium) the unit

will need to be cleaned periodically to remove

calcium buildup which can clog the system.

To clean off calcium buildup: Unplug the unit and

lay it face down. Fill the body at the water inlet fitting

with calcium remover and allow at least 5 hrs. for

calcium deposit to break down. Rinse and dry.

4. STORAGE: When storing,

empty the Pressure Washer of water.

Frost will damage the Pressure Washer if the

unit contains water. Store the Pressure Washer

in a dry, frost-free room. Flush the unit with

automotive antifreeze prior to long-term storage.

Dispose of antifreeze according to local ordinances.

5. WARNING! If the supply cord or GFCI unit

of this power tool is damaged, it must be

replaced only by a qualified service technician.
