Step 4 After circulating solution, flush the entire system with fresh water. Clean out float tank and then reinstall wand assembly to spray gun. Removal of Soot from Heating Coil: Keep the tip free of surface deposits by wiping it with a clean, solvent saturated cloth, being careful not to plug or enlarge the nozzle. For maximum efficiency, replace the nozzle each season. Electrode Setting: Beckett Fuel: Use clean fuel oil that is not contaminated with water and debris.

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.

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.
