Winterizing + Long-Term Storage

If you must store your pressure washer in a location where

the temperature falls below 32ºF (0ºC), you can minimize the

chance of damage to your machine by utilizing the following

procedure:

• Disconnect all water connections.

• Turn on the machine for a few seconds until the remaining

water in the pump exits. Turn o immediately.

• Do not allow the high-pressure hose to become kinked.

• Store the machine and accessories in a room that does

not reach freezing temperatures.

• Do not store near a furnace or other sources of heat that

may dry out the pump seals.

• Operate the pressure washer with non-corrosive/non-toxic

anti-freeze, a pump saver, or a pump protector before

storing for the winter.

mWARNING! Before reusing, completely ush the unit

out with clear water. Anti-freeze products can damage

paintwork, so you must ensure there is no anti-freeze left in the

system before using it again.

Maintenance

mCAUTION! Before working on the pressure washer,

disconnect the plug from the power supply socket.

1. To ensure good performance, check and clean the

adapter lter (Fig. 27). Remove the lter and rinse with

warm water to prevent any foreign matter from clogging

the pump (Fig. 28).

2. Clean the nozzle with the needle clean-out tool provided

(Fig. 29). Remove the spray wand from the gun; remove

any dirt from the nozzle hole and rinse.

3. Remove additional debris by back ushing water through

the nozzle and spray wand. To do this, place the end of

your garden hose (with water running) to the tip of the

nozzle, pushing water and debris out of the back opening

of the nozzle and spray wand.
