STORAGE
Pump Storage
CAUTION: Always store y our pressure
washer in a location where the
temperature will not fall below 32°F
(0° C). The pump in this machine is
susceptible to permanent damage if
frozen. FREEZE DAMAGE IS NOT
COVERED BY W ARRANTY.
If you must store your pressure washer in a location
where the temperature is below 32°F, you can minimize
the chance of damage to your machine by draining y our
machine as follows:
1. Stop the pressure washer and detach supply hose
and high pressure hose. Squeez e the trigger of the
spray gun to drain all water from the w and and hose.
2. Restart pressure washer and let it run briefly (about
5 seconds) until water no longer discharges from
the high pressure outlet.
Engine Storage
When the pressure washer is not being operated or is
being stored more than one month, follow these instructions:
1. Replenish engine oil to upper level.
2. Drain gasoline from fuel tank, fuel line, fuel valve
and carburetor .
3. Pour about one teaspoon of engine oil through the
spark plug hole, pull the starter grip several times
and replace the plug. Then pull the starter grip slowly
until you feel increased pressure which indicates the
piston is on its compression stroke and leave it in
that position. This closes both the intake and e xhaust
valves to prevent the inside of the cylinder from
rusting.
4. Cover the pressure w asher and store in a clean, dry
place that is well ventilated aw ay from open flame or
sparks.
NOTE: The use of a fuel ad ditive, such as STA-BIL®,
or an equivalent, will minimize the f ormulation of fuel
gum deposits during storage. Such an additive may
be added to the gasoline in the fuel tank of the engine, or to the gasoline in a storage container.
After Extended Storage
Caution: Prior to restarting, thaw out any possible
ice from pressure washer hoses, spray gun or wand.
Engine Maintenance
During the winter months, rare atmospheric conditions may develop which will cause an icing
condition in the carburetor . If this develops , the
engine may run rough, lose power and may stall. This
temporary condition can be overcome by deflecting some
of the hot air from the engine over the carburetor area.
NOTE: Refer to the engine manufacturer's manual
for service and maintenance of the engine.
