.
CAUTION
If water does freeze in the pressure washer
in a warm room before trying to start it. Do not pour
hot water on or into the pump; it may crack the
ceramic plungers!
1.
If the pressure washer will be exposed to freezing
temperatures, drain all water out of the pump. If it
must be stored in freezing temperatures, flush the
unit with a 50% anti–freeze solution. Relieve
pressure. Flush the pressure washer before using
it again to remove the anti–freeze.
2.
Before long-term (overnight) storage or transport
ing of unit, disconnect the water supply
of
f the fuel supply valve.
3.
After each use, wipe all surfaces of the pressure
washer with a clean, damp cloth.
4.
Perform the appropriate maintenance. See mainte
nance chart.
Maintenance
Observing regular maintenance intervals helps ensure
that you get maximum performance and life from the
pressure washer
There is a break-in period for the engine, pump and
gear reducer (if used). After changing the oil in these
components following their respective break-in periods,
the interval between required changes is longer
If the unit is operating in dusty conditions, these main
tenance checks should be made more often.
