Pressure Washer Operation
When nished spraying, press in to 4. fully engage the Safety on the Spray Gun (6). Turn off the Engine, and turn off the water supply. WARNING!
Do not disconnect the High Pres­sure Hose (8) or water inlet hose until all pressure is discharged safely.
IMPORTANT! 5. When turning off
the unit after use, high pressure will remain inside the unit’s High Pressure Hose (8), and the water inlet hose. Point the Spray Gun (6) in a safe direction and hold the Trigger down for several seconds or until
water stops owing from the Spray
Gun. The High Pressure Hose and water inlet hose can be disconnected after the pressure is released.
IMPORTANT! NEVER allow the 1. Pressure Washer to sit idle with the Engine running for longer than two minutes. The unit will build up
heat when it is on standby mode.
Turn on the water supply, press in on 2. the Safety on the Spray Gun (6) and
squeeze its Trigger until water ows
out of the Gun without sputtering. This removes air from the system and allows the unit to properly perform.
Failure to follow this procedure can damage the Pump.
Hold the Spray Gun (6) rmly with 3. both hands. Point the Nozzle (9) in a safe direction. Then, disengage the Safety and squeeze the Trigger. Make sure to turn off the Engine whenever the Spray Gun is not in use. Clean the area, following the tips contained in the “Operating Tips” section.
Store the Pressure Washer and all 6. accessories in accordance with the directions in the “Storage” section of this manual.
IF ANY UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS ARISE, PLEASE REFER TO THE “TROU- BLESHOOTING” SECTION AT THE END OF THIS MANUAL.
OPERATING TIPS
Adjusting The Spray Pattern
You have a choice of four different 1. color-coded Nozzles (9) giving you different spray patterns.
0° Nozzle (colored red):2. This Noz- zle delivers a pinpoint stream and is extremely powerful. It covers a very small area of cleaning. This Nozzle should only be used on a surface that can withstand this high pressure such as metal or concrete. Do not use on wood. Do not use to clean vehicles.
Page 12SKU 97005 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
15° Nozzle (colored yellow): 3. This Nozzle delivers a powerful 15 degree spray pattern for intense cleaning of small areas. This Nozzle should only be used on areas that can withstand the high pressure from this Nozzle. Do not use to clean vehicles.
40° Nozzle (colored white): 4. This Nozzle delivers a 40 degree spray pattern and a less powerful stream of water. It covers a wide area of cleaning. This Nozzle should be used for most general cleaning jobs and for cleaning vehicles.
Low Pressure Nozzle (colored 5. black): This Nozzle is used to apply
chemicals or cleaning solutions. It has the least power stream. Do not use to clean vehicles.
NOTE:6. Before using the Pressure Washer to clean patio paving slabs, it
is advisable to test a small area rst.
Some paving slabs are manufactured from inferior materials and the use of a Pressure Washer could damage the surface.
Using the Detergent Hose
Fill a suitable container with pressure 1. washer detergent. Always follow instructions as outlined in the detergent manufacturer’s manual.
Most automobile detergents are a 2. combination of a detergent and a wax solution. These tend to be a thick viscous liquid. The viscosity (thickness) of the detergent will increase in cold weather. It is recommended that this type of detergent is diluted with warm water
before lling the container. As a
general guide, a recommended
dilution rate is 50/50. However, a trial and error process would determine the ideal dilution rate for a particular detergent.
A thick, viscous detergent will not ow 3. freely from the detergent container and the residue will cause blockage
in the detergent ow system.
After using a detergent the entire 4. Pressure Washer system should be
thoroughly ushed out with ample
amounts of water.
If at any time the ow rate decreases, 5. sputters, or is inconsistent, release the Trigger of the Spray Gun (6) and turn off the Engine. Squeeze the Trigger to release any pressure. Then check the Nozzle (9) of the Spray Gun for any blockage. If blockage is suspected, clean the Nozzle thoroughly. If the problem still exists, check and clean the Filter on the Detergent Hose.
Cleaning Recommendations
Clean an inconspicuous test area 1. to help avoid damaging the surface. Always begin with the fan spray at a distance of about 3-5 feet from the surface being cleaned to avoid damaging the surface of the object. Make sure the test area is clear of people and water-prone delicate objects. If a pressure washer detergent is to be used, apply the detergent to this area as well. After cleaning this area, turn off the Engine and inspect the area carefully for any damage or discoloration. If any damage is noted from the Nozzle used, use a less powerful Nozzle when cleaning the rest of the area.
Page 13SKU 97005 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353.
If damage or discoloration is noted from the detergent, do not use the detergent when cleaning.
project, go over the edges of the streaks with a wide fan pattern to help blend these lighter areas in.
First, pass over the area with a light 2. cleaning. Then clean the area more thoroughly.
For a vertical or sloped surface:3.
Wash from the top down.
If possible, direct the stream of water in the same direction as the slope towards a drainage area. This will enable better drainage and, therefore, better cleaning.
For a at surface:4.
If a thin layer of water accumu- lates on the surface, periodically use a stream of water to direct the water toward the drainage.
After the major cleaning is done, sweep the surface with the stream of water to help direct loose debris toward the drainage.
If several different surfaces are to be 7. cleaned, make sure not to damage any of the less solid surfaces while attempting to clean the harder ones. This is especially a concern when cleaning tile and grout, bricks and mortar, or stones and mortar.
If wood is being cleaned, make 8. sure not to damage it. Pressure washed wood will usually require resurfacing (sanding) and re-coating with a surface protectant (wood, stain, varnish) after it has dried. Try to avoid leaving water on a wooden surface, as doing so can harm the surface.
If detergent is to be applied, use only 5. pressure washing detergent. Other detergents may clog or damage the Pressure Washer. Apply the deter­gent at low pressure. Allow the deter­gent several minutes to sit and soak into the work surface. This will im-
prove cleaning efciency. Make sure
to rinse off all detergent completely.
Hold the Spray Gun (6) at about a 6. 45° angle and steadily sweep the water stream back and forth. If a severe, head-on angle is used, dirt may imbed in the surface being cleaned. Follow a steady, consistent pace during cleaning. This will help prevent stripes or discoloration afterwards. If streaking or uneven cleaning is noted at the end of a

This warranty does not apply to damage due directly or indirectly, to misuse, abuse, negligence or accidents, repairs or alterations outside our facilities, criminal activity, improper installation, normal wear and tear, or to lack of maintenance. We shall in no event be liable for death, injuries to persons or property, or for incidental, contingent, special or consequential damages arising from the use of our product. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation of exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty is expressly in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied, including the warranties of
merchantability and tness.
To take advantage of this warranty, the product or part must be returned to us with transportation charges prepaid. Proof of purchase date and an explanation of the complaint must
accompany the merchandise. If our inspection veries the defect,
we will either repair or replace the product at our election or we may elect to refund the purchase price if we cannot readily and quickly provide you with a replacement. We will return repaired products at our expense, but if we determine there is no defect, or that the defect resulted from causes not within the scope of our warranty, then you must bear the cost of returning the product.
This warranty gives you specic legal rights and you may
also have other rights which vary from state to state.

HFT may deny you warranty coverage if your engine or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or
unapproved modications.
You are responsible for shipping your engine to a HFT
warranty station as soon as a problem exists. Contact the
HFT Customer Service department at the number below to
make shipping arrangements. The warranty repairs should
be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days.
