STANLEY Electric Pressure Washers
Rev: Feb2011
OPERATION
CAUTION
A pressure washer produces a high pressure spray which
increases risk of injury and damage to unit.
 Gun Kicks Back - Hold with both hands!
 The trigger gun safety lock prevents the trigger from accidentally
being engaged. The safety feature DOES NOT lock trigger in the ON
position.
 DO NOT secure spray gun in open position.
 DO NOT leave spray gun unattended while machine is running.
 NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger lock or
trigger guard in place and in working order.
 Always be certain spray gun, nozzles and accessories are correctly
attached.
Step 5:
 Attach garden hose to water supply and turn water on.
Step 6:
 Plug the unit into an outlet. Make sure that the pressure
washer is the only device plugged into the outlet.
If plugging
into a garage outlet, make sure there are no other devices plugged
into any other outlets in the garage..
Press “TEST”. Then press
“RESET” to assure proper connection to power.
Step 7
 Before turning the unit “ON”, depress the trigger to bleed any
trapped air out of the pump and hose.
Step 8
 Release trigger and start the pressure washer by turning ON/OFF
switch to ON.
Step 9
Adjusting the spray
 Turning the nozzle allows the use of several different spray tips.
Each spray tip provides a different spray pattern as shown in Figure
below.
CAUTION:
 Jet spray adjustment is very aggressive. Do not adjust while
spraying. We recommend that for most cleaning applications, a 20
degree spray angle should be used to avoid damage to the surface
being sprayed.
To prolong the life of the unit, it is
recommended to rest the unit 5 minutes after
every 30 minutes of use.
