detergent siphoning tube from container.
2. Keep spray gun a safe distance from area you
plan to spray.
3. Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then
check surface for damage. If no damage is found,
it is okay to continue cleaning.
4. Start at top of area to be rinsed, working down
with same overlapping strokes as you used for
washing and applying detergent.
Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube
If you used the detergent siphoning tube, you must
flush it with clean water before stopping the engine.
1. Place chemical injection siphon/filter in a bucket
full of clean water.
2. Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure
position.
3. Flush for 1-2 minutes.
4. Shut off engine.
IMPORTANT: Simply shutting OFF engine will not
release pressure in the system. When the engine has
shut down, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun
to relieve the pressure in the hose.
Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray
gun, circulating water in the pump can reach
temperatures above 125°F (51°C). The system
engages to cool the pump by discharging the warm
water onto the ground.
Keep spray nozzle between 8 to 24 inches away from
cleaning surface.
Operate this unit on a stable surface.
Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure
washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively
unstable location.
Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury if gun kicks back.
High pressure spray could cause you to fall
if you are too close to the cleaning surface.
WARNING
CAUTION
When inserting the filter into a detergent solution bottle,
route the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently
contacting the hot muffler.
Keep the chemical injection tube from coming in
contact with the hot muffler.

ENGINE TECHNICAL INFORMATION
This is a single cylinder, L-head, air cooled engine. It
is a low emissions engine.
In the State of California, Model Series
100000 engines are certified by the California Air
Resources Board to meet emissions standards for
125 hours. Such certification does not grant the
purchaser, owner or operator of this engine any
additional warranties with respect to the performance
or operational life of this engine. The engine is
warranted solely according to the product and
emissions warranties stated elsewhere in this manual.
Power Ratings
The power ratings for an individual engine model are
initially developed by starting with SAE (Society of
Automotive Engineers) code J1940 (Small Engine
Power & Torque Rating Procedure) (Revision 2002-
05). Given both the wide array of products on which
our engines are placed, and the variety of
environmental issues applicable to operating the
equipment, it may be that the engine you have
purchased will not develop the rated horsepower when
used in a piece of power equipment (actual “on-site”
power). This difference is due to a variety of factors
including, but not limited to, the following: differences
in altitude, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity,
fuel, engine lubrication, maximum governed engine
speed, individual engine to engine variability, design of
the particular piece of power equipment, the manner in
which the engine is operated, engine run-in to reduce
friction and clean out of combustion chambers,
adjustments to the valves and carburetor, and other
factors. The power ratings may also be adjusted
based on comparisons to other similar engines utilized
in similar applications, and will therefore not
necessarily match the values derived using the
foregoing codes.

Pressure washer parts should be kept clean to reduce the
risk of overheating and ignition of accumulated debris.
Use a damp cloth to wipe exterior surfaces clean.
Use a soft bristle brush to loosen caked on dirt, oil,
etc.
Use a vacuum cleaner to pick up loose dirt and debris.
Use low pressure air (not to exceed 25 psi) to blow
away dirt. Inspect cooling air slots and openings on
the pressure washer. These openings must be kept
clean and unobstructed.
Check and Clean Inlet Screen
Examine garden hose inlet screen. Clean if it is
clogged or replace if it is torn.
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 Gun and Nozzle Extension
Examine hose connection to gun and make sure it is
secure. Test trigger by pressing it and making sure it
springs back into place when you release it. Engage
safety latch and test trigger. You should not be able to
press trigger. Replace gun immediately if it fails any of
these tests.
Check In-Line Filter
Refer to the illustration and service the in-line filter if it
becomes clogged, as follows:
1. Detach nozzle extension from gun and remove
o-ring and screen from nozzle extension. Flush
screen, gun, and nozzle extension with clean water
to clear debris.
2. Place in-line filter screen into threaded end of
nozzle extension. Direction does not matter. Push
screen in with eraser end of pencil until it rests flat
at bottom of opening. Take care not to bend
screen.
3. Place o-ring into recess. Push o-ring snugly against
in-line filter screen.
4. Assemble nozzle extension to spray gun, as
described earlier in manual.
Nozzle 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
nozzle clogged or restricted with foreign materials,
such as dirt, etc. To correct the problem, immediately
clean the nozzle following these instructions:
1. Shut off engine and turn off water supply.
2. Remove nozzle from end of nozzle extension.
Separate nozzle extension from spray gun. Twist
nozzle clockwise to stream position. Using a 2mm
(5/64) allen wrench, remove orifice from end of
nozzle extension.
3. Remove in-line filter from other end of nozzle
extension.
4. Use a small paper clip to free any foreign material
clogging or restricting orifice.
5. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by
back flushing water through nozzle extension. Back
flush between 30 to 60 seconds. Turn adjustable
nozzle extension to stream spray and move nozzle
from low to high while flushing.
6. Reinstall orifice and in-line filter into nozzle
extension. DO NOT overtighten orifice with allen
wrench.
7. Reconnect nozzle extension to spray gun.
8. Reconnect water supply, turn on water, and start
engine.

Spark Arrester Service
Your engine is not factory-equipped with a spark
arrester. In some areas, it is illegal to operate an
engine without a spark arrester. Check local laws and
regulations. A spark arrester is available from your
nearest Sears service center. If you need to order a
spark arrester, contact your local Sears service center.
The spark arrester must be serviced every 50 hours to
keep it functioning as designed.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will be very
hot. Allow the muffler to cool before servicing spark
arrester.
Remove spark arrester screen for cleaning and
inspection.
Replace if screen is damaged.
Air Cooling System
Over time debris may accumulate in cylinder cooling
fins and cannot be observed without partial engine
disassembly. For this reason, we recommend you have
an authorized Sears service dealer clean the cooling
system per recommended intervals (see “Maintenance
Schedule” on page 14). Equally important is to keep top
of engine free from debris. See “Clean Debris”.
Clean Combustion Chamber
We recommend you have an authorized Sears service
dealer remove combustion deposits from the cylinder,
cylinder head, top of piston and around valves per
recommended intervals (see “Maintenance Schedule”
on page 14).
WHEN ADJUSTING OR MAKING REPAIRS TO YOUR
PRESSURE WASHER
Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug and
place the wire where it cannot contact spark plug.
WHEN TESTING FOR ENGINE SPARK
Use approved spark plug tester.
DO NOT check for spark with spark plug removed.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or
electric shock.
WARNING
DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
Allow equipment to cool before touching.
The pressure washer must be at least 5 feet from
structures having combustible walls and/or other
combustible materials.
Keep at least 3 feet of clearance on all sides of pressure
washer for adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing.
In the State of California a spark arrester is required by law
(Section 4442 of the California Public Resources Code).
Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply on
federal lands. If you equip the muffler with a spark arrester,
it must be maintained in effective working order.
Running engines produce heat.
Temperature of muffler and nearby areas
can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C).
Severe burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass,
brush, etc. can catch fire.
WARNING
Keep areas within heavy line clear of debris.
18
AFTER EACH USE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments or minerals can deposit on pump
parts and “freeze” pump action. Follow these
procedures after every use:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing the filter
into a pail of clean water while running pressure
washer in low pressure mode. Flush for one to two
minutes.
2. Shut off engine, let it cool, then remove all hoses.
3. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug.
4. Empty pump of all liquids by pulling recoil handle
about 6 times. This should remove most liquid in
pump.
5. If storing for more than 30 days see “Long Term
Storage” on next page.
6. Coil high pressure hose and inspect it for damage.
Cuts in hose or fraying could result in leaks and
loss of pressure. Should any damage be found,
replace hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a
damaged hose. Replace hose with genuine Sears
part.
7. Disconnect hose from spray gun and high
pressure outlet on pump. Drain water from hose,
gun, and nozzle extension. Use a rag to wipe off
hose.
8. Reconnect spark plug wire to spark plug.
9. Store unit in a clean, dry area.
WINTER STORAGE
To protect the unit from freezing temperatures:
1. Flush detergent siphoning tube by placing filter
into a pail of clean water while running pressure
washer in low pressure mode. Flush for one to two
minutes.
2. Empty pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil
handle about 6 times. This should remove most
liquid in pump.
3. Use pump saver, available at a local Sears service
center, to treat pump. This minimizes freeze
damage and lubricates pistons and seals.
4. If pump saver is not available, connect a 3-foot
section of garden hose to water inlet adapter. Pour
RV–antifreeze (antifreeze without alcohol) into
hose. Pull recoil handle twice. Disconnect 3-foot
hose.
STORAGE
CAUTION
Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump
and render your unit inoperable.
Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.
WHEN STORING FUEL OR EQUIPMENT WITH FUEL IN
TANK
Store away from furnaces, stoves, water heaters, clothes
dryers or other appliances that have pilot light or other
ignition source because they can ignite fuel vapors.
WHEN DRAINING FUEL
Turn pressure washer OFF and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to
relieve pressure in tank.
Drain fuel tank outdoors.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat, and other ignition sources.
DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
WARNING
19
LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the pressure washer for more
than 30 days, you must prepare the engine and pump
for long term storage.
It is important to prevent gum deposits from forming in
essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also,
experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture,
which leads to separation and formation of acids
during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel
system of an engine while in storage.
Protect Fuel System
Fuel Additive:
If adding a fuel additive, fill the fuel tank with fresh
fuel. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote
fuel deterioration during storage. Engine and fuel can
be stored up to 24 months with additive.
Add fuel additive following manufacturer’s
instructions.
Make sure you have water supply to pump inlet
connected and turned ON.
Run the engine outdoors for 10 minutes to be sure
that treated fuel has replaced the untreated fuel in
the carburetor.
If fuel additive is not used, remove all fuel from tank
and run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.
Change Oil
While engine is still warm, drain oil from crankcase.
Refill with recommended grade. See “Changing Oil”
on page 16.
Oil Cylinder Bore
Remove spark plug. Squirt about 1/2 oz. of clean
engine oil into the cylinder. Cover spark plug hole
with rag. Pull recoil handle slowly to distribute oil.
Avoid spray from spark plug hole.
Install spark plug. DO NOT connect spark plug
wire.
Protect Pump
To protect the pump use Sears pump saver to prevent
freeze damage and lubricate pistons and seals.
NOTE: Sears pump saver is available as an optional
accessory. It is not included with the pressure washer.
To use the pump saver:
1. Attach hose on pump saver can to pump inlet.
2. Push in can top to dispense pump saver.
3. When pump saver fluid begins to exit pump outlet,
the pump is protected.
4. Remove pump saver from pump inlet.
OTHER
DO NOT store fuel from one season to another.
If possible, store your unit indoors and cover it to
give protection from dust and dirt. BE SURE TO
EMPTY THE FUEL TANK.
CAUTION
Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump
and render your unit inoperable.
Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
You must protect your unit from freezing temperatures.
Always wear eye protection when using PumpSaver.
Read and follow all cautions and warnings on the
PumpSaver can label.
CAUTION
DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot pressure
washer.
