empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See Storage for additional
information.
NEVER use engine or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel
tank as permanent damage may occur.
Lubricate O-Rings
Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation
and operation. The use of a lubricant (petroleum or synthetic
grease) during assembly helps seat o-rings properly and
provides an improved seal. It also helps protect the o-ring
from damage by abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends
the life of the o-ring.
NOTICE ALWAYS apply a small amount of lubricant on
o-rings prior to assembling the garden hose to the pump (A),
high pressure hose (B), spray gun (C), and nozzle
extension (D).
Lubricate all connections shown below, following these
instructions:
1. Inspect and clean connecting surfaces prior to
lubrication and assembly.
2. Use lubricants sparingly during assembly; a light film is
all that is required.
3. Use a small brush or cotton swab to apply grease
directly to o-rings where they are not accessible (QC
fitting, M22 fitting).
WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive which could cause burns,
fire or explosion resulting in death,
serious injury and/or property damage.
WHEN ADDING FUEL
Turn pressure washer engine OFF and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to relieve
pressure in tank.
Fill fuel tank outdoors.
DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.
If fuel spills, wait until it evaporates before starting engine.
Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights, heat, and
other ignition sources.
Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings frequently for cracks or
leaks. Replace if necessary.
