Check High Pressure Hose
High pressure hoses can develop leaks from wear,
kinking, or abuse. Inspect hose before each use.
Check for cuts, leaks, abrasions, bulging of cover, or
damage or movement of couplings. If any of these
conditions exist, replace hose immediately.
Check Detergent Siphoning Tube
Detergent Siphoning Check Ball
Occasionally check ball in detergent siphoning
system may become stuck from storage, dried soap,
or minerals in water. The check ball can be freed by
performing the following:
NOTICE Before performing this procedure, be sure
you are wearing safety goggles as described below.
2. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction,
press red button and squeeze spray gun trigger to
release retained high water pressure.
3. Remove detergent siphoning hose from barbed
by at least 1” long, such as an Allen wrench, slowly
resistance. This resistance is the check ball.
5. Slowly push down until you feel the ball move
slightly, push no more than 1/8”. Slight pressure
may be required to free the ball.
8. Treat with PumpSaver as described in Protecting
the Pump during storage to prevent reoccurrence.
Check Spray Gun
Examine hose connection to spray gun and make sure
it is secure. Test trigger by pressing it and making sure
it springs back into place when you release it. Do not
depress red button and test trigger. You should not be
able to press trigger. Replace spray gun immediately if it
fails any of these tests.
Spray Tip Maintenance
A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun
trigger may be caused by excessive pump pressure.
The principal cause of excessive pump pressure is a
spray tip clogged or restricted with foreign materials,
such as dirt, etc. To correct the problem, immediately
clean the spray tip following these instructions:
2. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction, press
red button and squeeze spray gun trigger to release
retained high water pressure.
3. Remove spray tip from end of nozzle extension.
4. Use a small paper clip to free any foreign material
clogging or restricting spray tip (A).
5. Remove nozzle extension from spray gun.
WARNING The high pressure stream of water that
this equipment produces could cut through
skin and its underlying tissues, resulting in
serious injury and possible amputation.
• NEVER repair high pressure hose. Replace it.
• Replacement hose rating MUST equal or exceed
maximum pressure rating of unit.
WARNING Risk of eye injury.
Spray could splash back or propel objects
resulting in serious injury.
• Always wear indirect vented (chemical splash) safety
goggles marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 when using
or in vicinity of this equipment.
• NEVER substitute safety glasses or dry-condition
goggles for indirect vented safety goggles.
WARNING The high pressure stream of water that
this equipment produces could cut through
skin and its underlying tissues, resulting in
serious injury and possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when
engine is stopped and water is disconnected, which
could result in serious injury.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray
gun while system is pressurized.
• ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction, press red
button and squeeze spray gun trigger to release high
pressure, every time you stop engine.
