Pressure Nozzle Spray Gun Pressure Nozzle Wand Coupler Wand Coupler Safety Latch High Pressure Hose Wand Collar STEP 2: Pull the spring-loaded collar of the wand coupler back to insert your choice of pressure nozzle. Dipstick High Pressure Hose Discharge Fitting STEP 3: Release the coupler collar and push the nozzle until the collar clicks. Pull the nozzle to make sure it is seated properly.
PRESSURE WASHER OPERATOR’S MANUAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Gas Tank Oil Dipstick STEP 1: Check engine oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom of the oil filler neck. Be sure the machine is level when checking the oil level. (Refer to the engine's operating manual included with machine.) We recommend that the oil be changed after the first 5 hours of use, then once every 50 hours. Note: Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor to shut off engine.
Burner STEP 8: Pull the starter grip. If the engine fails to start after 2 pulls, squeeze the trigger gun to release pressure and repeat step. Return starter gently. After the engine warms up enough to run smoothly, move choke to run position and throttle to fast position. STEP 9: Turn the burner “ON”. Turn temperature control dial to the 210° mark.

PRESSURE WASHER OPERATOR’S MANUAL APPLYING DETERGENT & GENERAL OPERATING TECHNIQUES WARNING WARNING: Some detergents may be harmful if inhaled or ingested, causing severe nausea, fainting or poisoning. The harmful elements may cause property damage or severe injury. STEP 1: Use detergent designed specifically for pressure washers. Household detergents could damage the pump. Prepare detergent solution as required by the manufacturer. Fill a container with pressure washer detergent.
PRESSURE WASHER SHUTTING DOWN AND CLEAN-UP Engine On-Off Switch STEP 2: Turn off the engine. STEP 3: Turn off water supply. Water Inlet High Pressure Outlet OPERATOR’S MANUAL STEP 1: Remove detergent suction tube from container and insert into one gallon of fresh water. Open detergent metering valve. Pull trigger on spray gun and siphon water for one minute. Close detergent valve. Safety Latch STEP 4: Press trigger to release water pressure.
PRESSURE WASHER OPERATOR’S MANUAL MAINTENANCE PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE 1. Check to see that water pump is properly lubricated. 2. Follow winterizing instructions to prevent freeze damage to pump and coils. 3. Always neutralize and flush detergent from system after use. 4. If water is known to have high mineral content, use a water softener in your water system, or de-scale as needed. 5. Do not allow acidic, caustic or abrasive fluids to be pumped through system. 6.
Removal of Soot from Heating Coil: Burner Nozzle: In the heating process, fuel residue in the form of soot deposits may develop between the heating coil pipe, and block air flow which will affect burner combustion. When soot has been detected on visual observation, the soot on the coil must be washed off after following the coil removal steps (See Coil Removal section).
PRESSURE WASHER OPERATOR’S MANUAL MAINTENANCE Coil Removal: Removal of coil because of freeze breakage, or to clean soot from it can be done quickly and easily. 1. Disconnect hose from pump to inlet side of the coil. 2. Carefully disconnect the thermostat sensor making sure you do not crimp the capillary tube. 3. Remove burner assembly from combustion chamber. 4. Remove the 3-3/8" bolts from each side of coil and tank assembly (these bolts are used to fasten tank to chassis). 5.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION LOW OPERATING PRESSURE Faulty pressure gauge Install new gauge. Insufficient water supply Use larger supply hose; clean filter at water inlet. Old, worn or incorrect spray nozzle Match nozzle number to machine and/or replace with new nozzle. Belt slippage Tighten or replace; use correct belt. Plumbing or hose leak Check plumbing system for leaks. Retape leaks with teflon tape. Faulty or misadjusted unloader valve Adjust unloader for proper pressure.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION BURNER WILL NOT LIGHT (continued from previous page) Flex coupling slipping on fuel pump shaft or burner motor shaft Replace if needed. On-Off switch defective Check for electrical current reaching burner assembly with burner switch on. Heavy sooting on coil and burner can cause interruption of air flow and shorting of electrodes Clean as required. Improper electrode setting Check and reset according to diagram in Operator's Manual.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION LOW WATER TEMPERATURE Improper fuel or water in fuel Replace with clean and proper fuel. Low fuel pressure Increase fuel pressure. Weak fuel pump Check fuel pump pressure. Replace pump if needed. Fuel filter partially clogged Replace as needed. Soot build-up on coils not allowing heat transfer Clean coils. Improper burner nozzle See burner specifications. Incoming water to machine warm or hot Lower incoming water temperature.
Troubleshooting Guide PRESSURE WASHER TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION OIL DRIPPING Oil seal worn Check and replace if necessary. EXCESSIVE VIBRATION IN DELIVERY LINE Irregular functioning of the valves Check and replace if necessary. DETERGENT NOT DRAWING Air leak Tighten all clamps. Check detergent lines for holes. Restrictor in float tank is missing Replace restrictor. Check for proper orifice in restrictor. Filter screen on detergent suction hose plugged Clean or replace.
