STORAGE

AFTER EACH USE

Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments of minerais can deposit on pump parts and “freeze” pump action. Foiiow these procedures after every use:
Flush the chemical system by selecting the System Rinse tank and run the cleaning system with nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush for one minute or until
the chemical is cleared from the system.
• Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove all hoses.
CAUTION! Be sure the engine control switch is
A
in the “Off” position before you continue.
Empty the pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil handle about 6 times with the engine controi
switch in the “Off” position. This should remove
most of the liquid in the pump. Rotate the Diai-A-Cleaner™ selector knob to the
OFF position. Coii the high pressure hose and inspect it for
damage. Cuts in the hose or fra^ng couid result in teaks and ioss of pressure. Should any damage be found, replace the hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a damaged hose. Repiace the hose with the genuine Craftsman part.
Drain water from hose and properly hang it on the
wire support provided on the guide handle.
Store system in a clean, dry area.
DANGER! Never store the engine with fuel In the gas tank indoors or in enciosed, poorly
ventilated areas where fumes may reach an
open flame, a spark, or pilot light.

WINTER STORAGE

Flush the chemical system by selecting a tank and run the cleaning system with nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush until each tank is empty, then switch
the selector knob to the next tank. The last tank to
be emptied must be the System Rinse tank.
• Connect a 3-fool section of garden hose to the inlet adapter. Pour RV-Antifreeze (antifreeze without alcohol) into the hose. Pull the recoil handle twice.

LONG TERM STORAGE

If you do not plan to use the cleaning system for more
than 30 days, you must prepare the engine for long term storage. '
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture which leads to separation and formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
