deposits or freezing, use PumpSaver to treat pump.This
prevents freeze damage and lubricates pistons and seals.

is not included with the pressure washer. Contact the
nearest authorized service center to purchase PumpSaver.
To use PumpSaver, make sure the pressure washer is turned
off and disconnected from supply water. Read and follow all
instructions and warnings given on the PumpSaver container.
