Product Manual

The pressure washer must be run with the rubber feet resting on a flat and stable horizontal surface.

The pressure washer must be used in a clean and well-ventilated area. Keep the pressure washer a

minimum of 5 feet (1.5m) clearance on all sides including overhead.

DO NOT place the pressure washer in an area:

 Where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks

 Where flammable gas vapours or materials may be present

 Where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the pressure washer.

PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY

Below are common terms associated with the use of pressure washers:

PSI Pounds per square inch – common unit measure used for water pressure, air

pressure, hydraulic pressure and pounds of force.

GPM Gallons per minute (litres per minute (metric) – common unit measures used for

flow rate of water.

Bypass Mode In bypass mode, high pressure pump recirculates water because the spray gun

trigger is not squeezed.

Thermal relief valve When in bypass mode, this valve releases a jet of water to prevent water

temperatures from reaching harmful levels that damage the pump. Once the

water has cooled, the thermal relieve valve will reset itself. DO NOT allow the

pump to run without spraying (in bypass mode) for more than 5 minutes.
