Connect the High Pressure Hose
1. Completely uncoil and straighten the high pressure hose to
prevent kinks.
2. Align the collar on the hose to the threaded outlet on the
pump.
3. Insert the high pressure hose collar onto the threaded
outlet.
4. Turn the collar clockwise to tighten the hose securely to
the pump.
NOTICE
Be careful to avoid cross-threading, which can cause the
hose to leak during use.
5. Gently pull on the hose to be certain it is properly secured.
Connect the Garden Hose
The water supply must come from a pressurized water spicket.
NEVER use hot water or water from pools, lakes, etc. Before
connecting the garden hose to the pressure washer:
1. Run water through the hose for 30 seconds to clean any
debris from the hose.
2. Inspect the screen and gasket in the water intake.
3. If the screen and gasket is damaged, do not use the
machine until the screen has been replaced.
4. If the screen is dirty, clean it before connecting the garden
hose to the machine.
To connect the garden hose to the machine:
1. Completely uncoil the garden hose or remove completely
from reel to prevent kinks.
NOTICE
There must be a minimum of 10 ft. (3 m) of unrestricted
hose between the pressure washer intake and the hose
faucet or shut off valve (such as a “Y” shut off connector).
2. With the hose faucet turned completely off, attach the end
of the garden hose to the water inlet. Tighten by hand.
NOTICE
Do not run the pressure washer without water supply
connected and turned on, as this may damage the high
pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely unwind
the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the hose is not
being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other objects that
may lessen or prevent water flow to the pressure washer.
