PERIODIC MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
NOTE: If a separate engine manual is provided for this pressure washer, please follow the maintenance schedule provided
in the engine manual instead of the maintenance information listed below.
*Change engine lubricant every 25 hours when used under heavy load or in high ambient temperature. Dispose of waste
lubricant safely and responsibly. Do not pour into sewage drains, onto garden soil or into open streams. Your local zoning
or environmental regulations will give you more detailed instructions on proper disposal.
Maintenance items not listed here should be performed by a service center.
NOTICE:
The use of a pump protector is strongly recommended
after each use and before storing to prevent cold weather
and seal damage during storage.
Drain the lubricant and replace with fresh, clean lubricant
as described in Adding/Checking Engine Lubricant in
the Operation section of this manual.
Disconnect spark plug wire and remove the spark plug.
Pour about a teaspoon of clean, air-cooled, four-cycle
lubricant through the spark plug hole into the combustion
chamber.
Leaving the spark plug out, pull the starter grip and rope
two or three times to coat the inside of the cylinder wall.
Inspect the spark plug and clean or replace, as necessary.
Reinstall the spark plug, but leave the spark plug wire
disconnected.
Clean the air filter.
Extend the starter grip and rope to check its condition.
If the rope is frayed, have it replaced immediately by an
authorized service center.
Remove all hoses. Coil the hoses and store as shown.
Do not allow the hose to become kinked.
Store the unit and accessories in an area that does not
reach freezing temperatures. Do not store near furnace or
other sources of heat that could dry out the pump seals.
PREPARING FOR USE AFTER STORAGE
Pull the starter grip and rope three or four times to clean
lubricant from the combustion chamber.
Remove spark plug from the cylinder. Wipe lubricant from
the spark plug and return it to the cylinder.
Reconnect the spark plug wire.
Refuel the machine as described earlier in the Operator’s
Manual.
