16. Always use water that is clear and free from particles
17. Always point the wand nozzle away from people and animals,
the high pressure the unit generates is very dangerous.
18. Keep the pressure hose connected to the machine and wand
while unit is pressurized.
19. Never leave the wand unattended while the machine is running.
20. Always seek emergency medical immediately if any uid pene-
trates the skin. The cut may be deeper and more serious than it
appears.
21. Never run preheated water into the machine.
22. Do not secure the wand in the squeezed, “ON” position.
23. No smoking when operating the machine.
24. Never use the unit when under the in uence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication.
25. Do not adjust the unloader.
26. Do not move the unit by pulling on the hose or electrical cord.
27. Only operate the machine with su cient water supply to the
pump.
28. Do not let the machine run with the wand in the not-squeezed,
“OFF” position for more than 2 minutes (30 seconds with the wa-
ter temperature above 80° F). This causes bypass water tempera-
ture to increase which damages the pump.
29. Protect your machine from freezing during storage. Follow the
instructions to protect your pressure washer from freezing stor-
age temperatures.
30. Always follow all other guidelines and safety instructions de-
scribed in this manual.

1. The pressure washer should be as close as possible to the water
supply.
2. Locate the pressure washer on a solid, level surface with a gentle
slope to prevent water from building up in the work area. Excess
water can make surfaces slippery.
3. Position the unit so the operator has easy access to the pressure
washer and its controls.
4. To prevent damage and excessive hose wear, locate the pressure
washer so the hose does NOT extend across tra c areas. Make sure
there are no kinks or twists in the hose.
5. Use extension cords of at least 12-3 gauge for lengths up to 50 feet
or 10-3 gauge for lengths up to 100 feet. Check the extension cord
to make sure it is not damaged or frayed. The outlet should have an
amperage rating of 20 amps or greater and should have a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
6. Do not use the pressure washer outdoors if it is raining, and do not
spray the motor or any of its connections.
7. Do not use chemicals or agents which are not compatible with the
Buna-N and PVC (polyvinyl) or neoprene covering of the hose.
8. Do not run acids or hard caustics through the pump.
9. Check to determine if the water supply can exceed the output of the
pump. The output of this unit is 2.1 gpm (gallons per minute), so the
water supply must deliver at least 2.5 gpm.
Calculate gpm ow rate by running the water supply into a
pail for one minute. Measure the gallons in the pail. If it is at
least 2.5 gallons in the minute, your supply is adequate. Your
water supply must be clean and free of debris. Use water
with a temperature of less than 140° F.

1. Connect the high pressure hose to the pressure washer with the twist
fast coupler and tighten securely. Fasten wand and gun together and
connect gun/wand to high pressure hose.
Tighten all connections and replace worn parts before
starting the machine. Sudden release of high pressure
streams may result if connections detach during use. This
can cause serious injury. Never disconnect any part of
the unit while the machine is running or before relieving
system pressure, it is dangerous. Seek medical attention
if an injury ever occurs.
2. Remove the red plug from the pump crankcase and install the black
dipstick. Always check that the oil level is full before operating.
3. Oil level can be checked in two places.
4. First, on back side of pump sight glass, level should be half way.
5. Second, on dip stick, oil should read between the indentation on the
dip stick.

1. Turn on the water supply to the proper gpm ow rate.
2. Plug power cord into properly grounded outlet.
3. Turn nozzle to low pressure and squeeze trigger.
4. Turn “ON/OFF” switch to the “ON” position and wait until a constant
stream of water comes out. Adjust nozzle sleeves to achieve proper
pressure and coverage area.
1. Observe all safety instructions through this manual.
2. Do Not allow the machine to run with the wand not squeezed, “OFF”,
for more than 2 minutes (30 seconds with the water temperature
above 80° F).
When the wand trigger is released the pump does not
stop pumping. Water is routed through a bypass circuit
which builds up heat. If the water temperature becomes
too high, damage to the seals, packings and other parts
may result.
3. Check pump, connections and hose for water and oil leaks. Replace
worn parts.
1. Rinse and close the downstream chemical injector.
2. Turn the motor power switch to the “OFF” position.
3. Turn o water supply.
4. Squeeze the trigger on the wand to relieve the system water pressure
and drain as much water as possible.

5. Spray the backside of the nozzle with a lubricant and work the nozzle
back and forth from high pressure to low pressure. This will help keep
the nozzle from sticking.
6. Follow this procedure each time the machine is stopped. Having the
nozzle set at low pressure and squeezing the trigger on the gun when
you start the unit will reduce the startup load of the unit.
Long periods of non-use can cause calcium and iron deposits inside the
pump. Starting the machine could cause damage to the pump. Insert the
allen key provided with the unit through the hole in the motor end hous-
ing and rotate the motor one revolution clockwise and counter-clockwise.
Remove the key and start the motor. It should start up easily.
Change oil after the rst 50 hours of use. Use a SAE20 or 30 non-deter-
gent oil. After that, change oil every 200 hours, once a year or when it
looks milky, more frequently if used in demanding environments. Chang-
ing oil is one of the most important and lease expensive maintenance
items, it will prolong the life of your pressure washer.
1. Check water inlet screens for signs of debris.
2. Check nozzle for debris and signs of extensive wear. Worn nozzle will
result in poor performance. Only check nozzle with the motor turned
“OFF” and the pressure relieved from the system!
3. Check all ttings and connections for leaks and worn areas.

The gun nozzle supplied with the pressure washer provides optimum
cleaning for universal cleaning applications if used properly.
Cleaning agents are most e ective when the surface is rinsed rst to loos-
en dirt. After pre-rinsing to loosen dirt, then clean with detergent.
Detergent should be applied from the bottom to the top of the washing
area. Apply detergent and allow the detergent to react with the dirt, then
rinse from the top to the bottom. This detergent applying and rinsing
technique will help to avoid streaks and skips in the washing area.
Never use more detergent than is necessary to clean the surface.
Always follow directions supplied by the detergent manufacturer on the
container.
For best spraying results, hold the gun 6 – 12” away from the washing
surface and use long, slow deliberate side to side strokes, similar to using
a paint sprayer. This technique will provide the most e ective cleaning
impact and minimize streaks and skips in the cleaning process. Waving
the spray gun aimlessly across the surface wastes water and expensive
detergent and prolongs the cleaning process.
If the pressure washer is used to apply wax, the gun should be held further
from the surface to optimize the “misting” e ect when applying the wax.
For best results, follow the directions supplied by the wax manufacturer.
Hold the gun/wand in the normal operating position. Turn the nozzle
sleeve clockwise for a fan spray and counterclockwise for a stream. (Pull
the nozzle sleeve forward for high pressure while pushing the sleeve away
from the gun for low pressure). After shutting down the unit and draining
the hose, spray a lubricant, such as WD40, on the backside of the nozzle
and work the nozzle back and forth from high to low pressure. This will
help prevent the nozzle from sticking. Examine nozzle tip for blockage
only with pressure washer “OFF” and pressure relieved from systems.

Your pressure washer is supplied with a downstream low pressure soap/
chemical injector. Soap is added after the water ows through the pump.
The injector is used add liquids to the water. The injector works only on
low pressure.
The draw soap/chemical into the pressure washer, insert the lter end of
the pick-up hose into the soap/chemical. Adjust the nozzle to the low
pressure position. Do Not use powders, granular, high viscosity detergents
or acidic based detergents/chemicals in the injector.
To shutdown the injector, remove pick-up hose and lter from detergent/
chemical tank and place it in a container of clear water. Run water through
the entire system to wash out the chemical you were using.
Severe damage could occur by water freezing inside the components. To
prevent costly repairs, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the unit is “OFF”, water supply is disconnected and system
pressure has been relieved.
2. Install a suction hose from the pump inlet (garden hose tting) into a
gallon of NON-TOXIC RV anti-freeze. Following operating instructions
start the machine and squeeze trigger on the spray gun allowing
the pump to draw anti-freeze though the entire system. Once the
anti-freeze appears at the end of the wand, turn the machine “OFF”.
3. Squeeze gun trigger to relieve pressure from system. Disconnect the
high pressure hose from the high pressure outlet and put the hose,
gun/wand and owners manual in a secure place to prevent unautho-
rized people from using the machine.
4. When preparing the high pressure hose assembly and water supply
to the unit, turn the water on and squeeze the trigger on the spray
gun to send water through the system. Dispose of the anti-freeze/
water solution safely where it will not be harmful to the environment,
people or animals.

The gun nozzle supplied with the pressure washer provides optimum
cleaning for universal cleaning applications if used properly.
Cleaning agents are most e ective when the surface is rinsed rst to loos-
en dirt. After pre-rinsing to loosen dirt, then clean with detergent.
Detergent should be applied from the bottom to the top of the washing
area. Apply detergent and allow the detergent to react with the dirt, then
rinse from the top to the bottom. This detergent applying and rinsing
technique will help to avoid streaks and skips in the washing area.
Never use more detergent than is necessary to clean the surface.
Always follow directions supplied by the detergent manufacturer on the
container.
For best spraying results, hold the gun 6 – 12” away from the washing
surface and use long, slow deliberate side to side strokes, similar to using
a paint sprayer. This technique will provide the most e ective cleaning
impact and minimize streaks and skips in the cleaning process. Waving
the spray gun aimlessly across the surface wastes water and expensive
detergent and prolongs the cleaning process.
If the pressure washer is used to apply wax, the gun should be held further
from the surface to optimize the “misting” e ect when applying the wax.
For best results, follow the directions supplied by the wax manufacturer.
Hold the gun/wand in the normal operating position. Turn the nozzle
sleeve clockwise for a fan spray and counterclockwise for a stream. (Pull
the nozzle sleeve forward for high pressure while pushing the sleeve away
from the gun for low pressure). After shutting down the unit and draining
the hose, spray a lubricant, such as WD40, on the backside of the nozzle
and work the nozzle back and forth from high to low pressure. This will
help prevent the nozzle from sticking. Examine nozzle tip for blockage
only with pressure washer “OFF” and pressure relieved from systems.

5. Spray the backside of the nozzle with a lubricant and work the nozzle
back and forth from high pressure to low pressure. This will help keep
the nozzle from sticking.
6. Follow this procedure each time the machine is stopped. Having the
nozzle set at low pressure and squeezing the trigger on the gun when
you start the unit will reduce the startup load of the unit.
Long periods of non-use can cause calcium and iron deposits inside the
pump. Starting the machine could cause damage to the pump. Insert the
allen key provided with the unit through the hole in the motor end hous-
ing and rotate the motor one revolution clockwise and counter-clockwise.
Remove the key and start the motor. It should start up easily.
Change oil after the rst 50 hours of use. Use a SAE20 or 30 non-deter-
gent oil. After that, change oil every 200 hours, once a year or when it
looks milky, more frequently if used in demanding environments. Chang-
ing oil is one of the most important and lease expensive maintenance
items, it will prolong the life of your pressure washer.
1. Check water inlet screens for signs of debris.
2. Check nozzle for debris and signs of extensive wear. Worn nozzle will
result in poor performance. Only check nozzle with the motor turned
“OFF” and the pressure relieved from the system!
3. Check all ttings and connections for leaks and worn areas.

1. Turn on the water supply to the proper gpm ow rate.
2. Plug power cord into properly grounded outlet.
3. Turn nozzle to low pressure and squeeze trigger.
4. Turn “ON/OFF” switch to the “ON” position and wait until a constant
stream of water comes out. Adjust nozzle sleeves to achieve proper
pressure and coverage area.
1. Observe all safety instructions through this manual.
2. Do Not allow the machine to run with the wand not squeezed, “OFF”,
for more than 2 minutes (30 seconds with the water temperature
above 80° F).
When the wand trigger is released the pump does not
stop pumping. Water is routed through a bypass circuit
which builds up heat. If the water temperature becomes
too high, damage to the seals, packings and other parts
may result.
3. Check pump, connections and hose for water and oil leaks. Replace
worn parts.
1. Rinse and close the downstream chemical injector.
2. Turn the motor power switch to the “OFF” position.
3. Turn o water supply.
4. Squeeze the trigger on the wand to relieve the system water pressure
and drain as much water as possible.

1. Connect the high pressure hose to the pressure washer with the twist
fast coupler and tighten securely. Fasten wand and gun together and
connect gun/wand to high pressure hose.
Tighten all connections and replace worn parts before
starting the machine. Sudden release of high pressure
streams may result if connections detach during use. This
can cause serious injury. Never disconnect any part of
the unit while the machine is running or before relieving
system pressure, it is dangerous. Seek medical attention
if an injury ever occurs.
2. Remove the red plug from the pump crankcase and install the black
dipstick. Always check that the oil level is full before operating.
3. Oil level can be checked in two places.
4. First, on back side of pump sight glass, level should be half way.
5. Second, on dip stick, oil should read between the indentation on the
dip stick.

1. Read all safety instructions throughout the manual.
2. Place unit on dry, rm, level ground for optimum lubrication of pump.
3. Check oil levels prior to each use.
4. Tighten all hoses and connections. Check parts and replace if need-
ed.
5. When the unit is attached to a pressure main and the nozzle is in the
low pressure setting, purge air from system by squeezing gun trigger
before starting machine. Let water run until there is a steady stream
of water coming out of the nozzle.

1. The pressure washer should be as close as possible to the water
supply.
2. Locate the pressure washer on a solid, level surface with a gentle
slope to prevent water from building up in the work area. Excess
water can make surfaces slippery.
3. Position the unit so the operator has easy access to the pressure
washer and its controls.
4. To prevent damage and excessive hose wear, locate the pressure
washer so the hose does NOT extend across tra c areas. Make sure
there are no kinks or twists in the hose.
5. Use extension cords of at least 12-3 gauge for lengths up to 50 feet
or 10-3 gauge for lengths up to 100 feet. Check the extension cord
to make sure it is not damaged or frayed. The outlet should have an
amperage rating of 20 amps or greater and should have a Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
6. Do not use the pressure washer outdoors if it is raining, and do not
spray the motor or any of its connections.
7. Do not use chemicals or agents which are not compatible with the
Buna-N and PVC (polyvinyl) or neoprene covering of the hose.
8. Do not run acids or hard caustics through the pump.
9. Check to determine if the water supply can exceed the output of the
pump. The output of this unit is 2.1 gpm (gallons per minute), so the
water supply must deliver at least 2.5 gpm.
