❑
Cold water supply (5 GPM • 5/8" • 20 PSI)
❑
Hose, wand, nozzle (nozzle size per serial plate)
❑
Water filter (intact, non restrictive)
❑
Proper electrical supply, receptacle and circuit
❑
breaker.
4. Attach connector on discharge hose to spray gun
using teflon tape on threads.
5. Remove oil plug on top of pressure washer pump
and replace with dipstick supplied. (This may be
installed from the factory.)
Dipstick
6. Check oil level on oil dipstick on top of pump. Oil
should be visible one half way up sight glass (30W
non-detergent).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. With power switch in OFF position, plug power cord
into a grounded type of receptacle of proper voltage
and amperage reading. Then push GFCI reset button at end of power cord if required.
2. Turn on water at faucet and pull trigger on spray gun
allowing water to flow until all air has discharged
from system. Check for water leaks; tighten as
needed.
SETUP PROCEDURES
These machines are designed for indoor use.
Machine must be stored indoors when not in use.
1. Attach a 5/8" garden hose to inlet connector. Minimum flow should be 5 GPM.

When washing large objects, use detergent injector to
apply detergent (see section “How to Use the Detergent
Injector”). Start washing from the bottom and work up.
Better detergent economy and faster results will be obtained by allowing the detergent to set 5-10 minutes. After washing, rinse from the top down.
Cleaning heavy dirt or material away with a hard stream
of clear water is recommended before using a cleaning
agent.

HOW TO USE THE
DETERGENT INJECTOR
WARNING
SOME DETERGENTS
MAY BE HARMFUL IF
INHALED OR
INGESTED
1. Pull injector quick coupler collar back and secure on
discharge nipple. Injector valve body arrow should
point in direction of flow.
2. Connect high pressure hose to injector nipple securing quick coupler.
3. Start machine as outlined in Operating Instructions.
4. Place detergent pick-up tube into container of detergent solution.
WARNING: Some detergents may
be harmful if inhaled or ingested,
causing severe nausea, fainting
or poisoning. The harmful elements may cause property damage or severe injury.
The machine can siphon and mix
detergents with the use of Shark's
detergent injector kit.
5. Install the brass soap nozzle provided with the injector into the quick coupler of the wand.
6. Open trigger spray gun. Water detergent ratio is approximately 15 to 1.
7. When you finish washing, rinse by simply releasing
the trigger spray gun, removing the soap nozzle, and
replacing the pressure nozzle back into quick coupler.
NOTE: The detergent injector will not siphon with
the high pressure nozzle at the end of the wand.
8. If your machine has a variable pressure wand, turn
the pressure control handle counterclockwise to
lower the pressure by directing the water flow through
the soap nozzle which allows the detergent injector
to siphon soap. To rinse with high pressure water,
simply turn the control handle clockwise.
9. For clean up, place detergent pick-up tube into container of clear water and follow steps 5 and 8 to prevent detergent deposits from damaging the injector.
