15 STORAGE

If the engine (picture 1, part 14) is not to be used or is to be stored for more than one month

the following storage procedure should be carried out. Drain all the fuel from the fuel tank

(picture 1, part 11) and the carburettor ensure that all the fuel has been removed.

 Remove the spark plug

 Pour approximately one tablespoon full of clean engine oil into the spark plug hole.

 With the ignition turned OFF gently pull on the recoil starter cord (picture 1, part 16)

several times. Re-fit the spark plug continue to pull the recoil starter cord until the piston is

on the compression stroke (when resistance is felt) then stop pulling.

Store the pressure washer in a dry well ventilated place under a cover to prevent any dust or

debris from accumulating on the pressure washer.

16 PREPARATION FOR WINTER AND LONG TERM STORAGE

If the pressure washer is not to be used for more than 3 months or if there is a danger of ice or

frost during winter months the pump unit will require protection to prevent seizing and damage

caused by freezing. To protect the pump unit, mix a solution of automotive antifreeze as

recommended on the antifreeze packaging. Carefully pour the solution into the pressure

washer pump inlet. When the solution drains out of the outlet, seal the outlet with a cork or

other suitable bung. Continue to pour the antifreeze solution into the inlet until the pump is full

then seal the inlet with a cork or other suitable bung.

When the pressure washer is to be used for the first time following the antifreeze protection

ensure that all the antifreeze is flushed out of the pump, hose and lance.

When the pressure washer is first started, small leaks may occur from the pump. These will

disappear after a short time.
