NOTE: Photographs and line drawings used in this manual are for reference

only and do not represent a specific model. Save this manual for future reference.

NOTICE: The engine is shipped without oil. Before starting engine, add the oil

provided. Damage to the engine will occur if the engine is run without oil, this

damage will not be covered underwarranty.

PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY

PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used

for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc. Operating at pressures exceeding the

maximum rating could result in damage to the unit and/or severe personalinjury.

GPM: Gallons per Minute. The unit of measure for the flow rate of water.

CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by PSI equalsCU.

Pressure Wand Assembly: This refers to the gun, wand andnozzle.

Pump: The pump moves the water through the system and delivers it to the

pressure wand assembly. The nozzle creates thepressure.

Bypass Mode: Allows water to re-circulate within the pump when the gun trigger is

not pulled. This feature allows the operator to release the trigger gun and reposition

themselves without having to turn the engine off in between cleaningactions.

NOTICE: Allowing the unit to run for more than two minutes without the gun trigger

being pulled could cause overheating and damage to the pump. Do not let the

pressure washer run for more than two minutes in Bypass Mode. Turn off the engine

and relieve the pressure in the gun during these extendedsituations.

Thermal Relief Valve: When the temperature inside the pump rises too high, this

valve will open and release a gush of water in an effort to lower the temperature

inside the pump. The valve will thenclose.

Pressure Relief Valve: The water heater coils are designed to operate safely

at normal working pressure. The safety pressure relief valve prevents over

pressurization of the high pressure system. Do not modify the pressure relief valve

inanyway.

High Pressure Pump Oil: The preferred oil is SIMPSON

Premium Pump

Crankcase Oil. If this oil is not available, an SAE 15W-40 oil may be used. Change

the pump oil after the first 50hours of operation and every 100 hours thereafter, or

every 3months.

Gasoline Engine Oil (if equipped):

Check engine oil level before each use. Refer to

the

Engine Owner's Manual

for correctprocedure.

12V DC Battery (if equipped):

The 12V DC battery operates the engine's electrical

start system, after the engine is started the system will charge the battery and operate

the burner. The 12V battery will need to be replaced regularly to ensure consistent

performance.

Recommended battery size:

Colbalt, Streamliner use Group 24 battery

/Patriot use U 1battery.

Burner Assembly: A device used to change fuel to heat energy. It is used to heat

the water in the coil assembly and is designed to use a NO. #2 dieselfuel.

BTU (British Thermal Unit): The amount of work or energy it takes to raise the

temperature of one pound of water by one degreeFahrenheit.

Temperature Control: The burner system is equipped with an adjustable

temperature control. Do not set thermostat above 195°F. The burner will shut off

if insufficient water flow through the burner's heater coil causes the outlet water

temperature to be excessive.

Back Flow Preventer: Prevents backflow into a potable watersystem.

WARNING: To reduce the possibility of contamination always protect

against backflow when connected to a potable water system

Pressure Switch: A switch which uses a pressure activated plunger to activate a

microswitch, used to control the fuel solenoid in the burnersystem.

Flow Switch: A switch which responds to changes in water flow, water flow

moves a magnet which ativates a reed or microswitch to control voltage to the fuel

solenoid in the burnersystem.

Chemical Injection System: Mixes cleaners or cleaning solvents with the water to

improve cleaning effectiveness.

High Pressure Hose: Only use a wire braid hose rated for the output pressure and

temperature of the high pressure pump. Additional hose lengths can be added with

quick twist couplers with a minimal loss in pressure of about .5 PSI per foot. Always

inspect hoses for wear and replace if necessary. Avoid kinking or running over the

hose to extend the hoselife.

Hour meter (if equipped): The analog hour meter operates whenever the engine is

running and keeps track of how many hours the unit has beenused.

Water Supply: The minimum requirements for a water supply are 20 psi at twice

the stated water volume for the machine. If your water source is a well, the garden

hose length can only be 30ft. (9m)maximum.

EVAP canister (if equipped): Collects fuel vapors and later purges them so they

burn in the combustionprocess.

Water column (if equipped): Is a measurement using a water column manometer

to measure the NG or LP gas operating pressure in units of water column inches.

GET TO KNOW THE PRESSURE WASHER OPERATING FEATURES

IMPORTANT: Become familiar with these features before operating this

pressurewasher.

PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS

The pressure setting is preset at the factory to achieve op ti mum pres sure and

cleaning. If you need to lower the pres sure, it can be accomplished by these

methods.

Back away from the sur face to be cleaned. The further away you are, the less

the pressure will be on the surface to becleaned.

This pressure washer is equipped with an additional feature that allows the

pressure setting to be adjusted.

paragraph

in thissection.

4. If equipped:

Some units have a soap control valve. Turn the valve counterclockwise

to increase the soap output and clockwise to decrease the soapoutput.

After use of chemicals, place chemical siphon hose into container of clean water

and draw clean water through chemical injection system to rinse system thoroughly.

If chemicals remain in the pump, it could be damaged. Pumps damaged due to

chemical residue will not be covered underwarranty.

OPERATION

STARTING

WARNING: Do not operate this unit until you read this instruction manual

and the engine (if equipped) instruction manual for safety, operation and

maintenanceinstructions.

DANGER: Risk of fluid injection and laceration. When using the high

pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high pressure spray to come in contact

with unprotected skin, eyes, or with any pets or animals. Serious injury

willoccur.

• Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to penetrate

human and animal flesh, which could result in amputation or other serious injury.

Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection

injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a physician

immediately!

DANGER: Gasoline or Diesel Driven only: Carbon Monoxide. Using an

engine indoors can kill you in minutes. Engine exhaust contains high levels of

carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you cannot see or smell. You may be

breathing CO even if you do not smell engine exhaust.

• Breathing ex haust fumes will cause se ri ous injury or death! En gine exhaust

contains carbon mon ox ide, an odorless and deadlygas.

• Operate pressure washer in a well-ventilated area. Avoid en closed areas

such as ga rages, base ments,etc.

• Never op er ate unit in or near a lo ca tion occupied by humans oranimals.

WARNING: For your safety, if you smell gas: (A) turn off gas at line valve or

meter, (B) open windows, (C) do not touch electrical switches, (D) extinguish

all open flames, (E) immediately call your gassupplier.

WARNING: Gasoline or Diesel Driven only: Risk of Fire, Asphyxiation and

Burn. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke when

filling fueltank.

• Never fill fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" (12.7 mm) below bottom of filler

neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from engine and

equipment before startingengine.

• DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine muffler during or

immediately after use of your pressure washer. Damage to hoses from contact with

hot engine surfaces will NOT be covered bywarranty.

NOTICE: Risk of property damage. Never pull water supply hose to move pres sure

washer. This could damage hose and/or pumpinlet.

• DO NOT use hot water, use cold wateronly.

• Never turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or damage to

pump willresult.

• DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two minutes at a time. Pump operates in

bypass mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. If pump is left in bypass mode

for more than two minutes internal components of the pump can bedamaged.

If you do not understand these precautions, please contact our customer service
