SAFETY FEATURES

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

THERMAL RELIEF VALVE

A thermal relief valve is provided to protect the

pump from overheating if the spray gun is

closed for an extended length of time or the

nozzle becomes plugged. However, it is

intended to be used as a backup system and

every effort should be made to not permit the

pump to heat up.

We recommend turning the pressure washer

off if it will not be used for more than five

minutes. This saves wear on the unit, reduces

fuel consumption and extends the life of the

pump by avoiding heat.

NOTICE

The pump will overheat and may

be damaged, or cause damage if allowed to

circulate more that five minutes.

SAFETY LOCK OFF LATCH

To prevent accidental discharge of high

pressure water, the safety latch on the trigger

should be engaged whenever the pressure

washer is not in use. (Refer to Operating

Instructions.)

LOW-OIL SHUTDOWN

The unit is equipped with a low oil sensor. If the

engine oil level becomes lower than required,

the pressure washer will automatically shut off.

(Refer to the engine manual for this feature.)

This protects your pressure washer engine from

operating without proper lubrication.

If the pressure washer engine shuts off and the

oil level is according to specification, check to

see if the pressure washer is sitting at an angle

that forces oil to shift. Place on an even

surface to correct this. If the engine fails to

start, the oil level may not be sufficient to

deactivate low oil level switch. Be sure the

engine is completely full of oil. See engine

manual.

SPARK ARRESTING MUFFLER

THIS PRODUCT MAY NOT BE EQUIPPED WITH

A SPARK ARRESTING MUFFLER. If the product

will be used around flammable materials, such

as agricultural crops, forests, brush, grass, or

other similar items, then an approved spark

arrester should be installed and is legally

required in the State of California. The California

statutes requiring a spark arrester are Sections

13005(b), 4442 and 4443. Spark Arresters are

also required on some U.S. Forest Service land

and may also be legally required under other

SPRAY NOZZLE SELECTION

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

Following is information concerning the five

nozzles provided with your pressure washer.

NOTE: The force of the spray on the

surface you are cleaning increases as

you move closer to the surface.

0° High Pressure (Red): The water stream

discharged is very aggressive. Use with

extreme caution to prevent damage to the

surface being cleaned or injury to persons

or animals.

15° High Pressure (Yellow): This is the

nozzle used for most cleaning applications. It

provides narrow coverage and a highly

powerful water stream.

25° High Pressure (Green): Use of this

nozzle offer both a medium coverage and

water stream. Best used for flushing dirt and

debris off surfaces.

40° High Pressure (White): This nozzle is

chemical injector to apply chemicals used for

cleaning with the widest coverage over a

larger area with a powerful water stream.

65° Low Pressure (Black): Provides low

Industries, LLC assumes no responsibility

for any damages caused by chemicals

injected through this pressure washer.

12 - ENG

CLEANING TECHNIQUES

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

When cleaning with the pressure washer,

many cleaning tasks can be solved with water

alone, but for most tasks it is advantageous to

use a detergent also. A detergent ensures a

quick soaking of the dirt allowing the high

pressure water to penetrate and remove the

dirt more effectively.

Pressure washer chemicals are specially for-

mulated to be used with your pressure washer.

APPLICATION OF SOAP OR

DEGREASER

1. Apply the solution to a DRY work surface.

On a vertical surface, apply horizontally

from side to side starting from the bottom

to avoid streaking.

NOTE: Wetting the surface first is not

recommended, as it dilutes the

detergent and reduces its cleaning

ability. Avoid working on hot surfaces

or in direct sunlight to minimize the

chances of the chemical damaging

painted surfaces. Damage may occur

to painted surface if chemical is

allowed to dry on the surface. Hold

nozzle far enough away from surface

to prevent damage to the surface.

2. Allow chemical to remain on the surface

for a short time before rinsing.

3. Rinse with clean water under high pressure.

On a vertical surface, first rinse from the

bottom up, then rinse from the top down.

Hold nozzle 6 to 8 inches from the work

surface at a 45° angle using the flat spray

as a peeling tool rather than a scrub brush.

APPLICATION OF WAX

1. Immediately after cleaning, apply pressure

washer wax. Place injection tube in

container of wax.

2. Apply the wax sparingly in an even layer.

Apply to wet surfaces from the bottom up

for even distribution and to avoid streaking.

3. Remove the suction tube from the wax

bottle and rinse off the surplus wax.

NOTE: IF SURPLUS WAX IS NOT

REMOVED, A HAZY FINISH MAY RESULT.

4. Wipe dry to reduce water spotting.

END OF CLEANING OPERATION

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

When you have completed use of the chemical

injection system, remove tube from container.

Continue to run in low pressure position and

inject clean water through the tube and

injection system by placing end of tube in a

container of clean water. Continue to run until it

is thoroughly cleaned.

13 - ENG

MAINTENANCE

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

CONNECTIONS

Connections on pressure washer hoses, gun

and spray wand should be cleaned regularly

and lubricated with silicon grease to prevent

leakage and damage to the o-rings.

NOZZLE

Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump

pressure to be too high and cleaning is

immediately required.

WARNING

A nozzle cleaner must

only be used when the spray nozzle is

disconnected from the gun or personal

injury could result.

1. Remove the nozzle from the wand.

2. Clear the nozzle with the nozzle cleaner

pin provided with the pressure washer.

3. Flush the nozzle backwards with water.

4. Re-install the nozzle into the wand.

Restart the pressure washer and depress the

trigger on the spray gun. If the nozzle is still

plugged or partially plugged, repeat above

items 1-4.

If the previous procedure does not clear the

nozzle, replace with a new nozzle.

WATER SCREEN

The pressure washer is equipped with a water

inlet screen to protect the pump. If the screen

is not kept clean, it will restrict the flow of

water to the pressure washer and may cause

damage to the pump. Do not damage the

screen while removing or cleaning screen.

Any foreign particles entering the pump may

damage the pump. Do not operate pressure

washer without the screen in place.

Remove the screen and back flush to remove

impurities from screen. Replace immediately.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE

During the winter months, rare atmospheric

conditions may develop which will cause an

icing condition in the carburetor. If this

develops, the engine may run rough, lose

power, and may stall.

NOTE: Refer to the engine manufacturer’s

manual for service and maintenance of

the engine.

14 - ENG

STORAGE

• SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS

PUMP STORAGE

If you must store your pressure washer in a

location where the temperature is below 32°F,

you can minimize the chance of damage to

your machine by utilizing the following

procedure:

1. Shut off water supply and relieve pressure

in the spray gun by depressing the trigger.

Disconnect the garden hose from the

pressure washer, but leave the high-

pressure hose connected.

2. Tip the unit on its side with the inlet

connection pointing up.

3. Insert a small funnel (to prevent spilling)

into the inlet and pour in approximately 1/4

cup of RV antifreeze.

4. Disconnect spark plug wire.

5. Without connecting garden hose pull the

recoil several times to circulate the anti

freeze in the pump system. Continue to

add antifreeze and pull the recoil until the

antifreeze is expelled when the trigger is

pulled.

6. Turn the unit upright.

NOTICE

Prior to restarting, thaw out

any possible ice from the pressure wash-

er hoses, spray gun and wand.

Another method of reducing risks of freeze dam-

age is to drain your pressure washer as follow:

1. Stop the pressure washer and detach supply

hose and high pressure hose. Squeeze

the trigger of the discharge gun to drain all

water from the wand and hose.

2. Restart the pressure washer and let it run

briefly (about 5 seconds) until water no longer

discharges from the high pressure outlet.

ENGINE STORAGE

When the pressure washer is not being

operated or is being stored more than one

month, follow these instructions:

1. Replenish engine oil to upper level.

2. Drain gasoline from fuel tank, fuel line, fuel

valve and carburetor.

3. Pour about one teaspoon of engine oil

through the spark plug hole, pull the recoil

starter several times and replace the plug.

Then pull the starter slowly until you feel

increased pressure which indicates the

piston is on its compression stroke and

leave it in that position. This closes both

the intake and exhaust valves to prevent

the inside of the cylinder from rusting.

4. Cover the pressure washer and store in a

clean, dry place that is well ventilated away

from open flame or sparks.

NOTE: We recommend always using a

fuel stabilizer. A fuel stabilizer will

minimize the formulation of fuel gum

deposits during storage. The fuel

stabilizer can be added to the gasoline in

the fuel tank, or into the gasoline in a

storage container.

CE QUI PEUT SE PRODUIRE COMMENT L’ÉVITER

• Les cigarettes, étincelles, arc électrique, gaz

d’échappement et des parties chaudes du moteur telles

qu’un silencieux peuvent enammer l’essence déversée

et ses vapeurs.

• Éteindre le moteur et le laisser refroidir avant de remplir

le réservoir d’essence.

• Être attentif et éviter de déverser de l’essence lors du

remplissage du réservoir. Éloigner la laveuse haute

pression de la zone de ravitaillement avant de démarrer

le moteur.

• Le combustible du réservoir se dilate sous l’effet de la

chaleur et pourrait se solder par un déversement et un

incendie ou une explosion.

• Laisser environ 127 mm (1/2 po) de dégagement sous

le bord du goulot de remplissage pour permettre

l’expansion de l’essence.

• Le fonctionnement de la laveuse haute pression dans un

milieu explosif pourrait se solder par un incendie.

• Utiliser et faire le plein d’essence de l’équipement dans

des zones bien dégagées de tout obstacle. Installer

un extincteur adéquat dans les zones de travail pour

combattre les incendies à base d’essence.

• Du matériel déposé contre ou près de la laveuse

haute pression peut interférer avec les fonctionnalités

d’aération de l’équipement et provoquer une surchauffe

et l’allumage du materiel (risque d’incendie).

• Ne jamais utiliser la laveuse haute pression dans une

zone avec arbustes ou broussailles secs.

• La chaleur de l’échappement du silencieux peut

endommager des surfaces peintes, faire fondre tout type

de matériel sensible à la chaleur (comme du revêtement

extérieur, plastique, caoutchouc, vinyle ou meme le

tuyau haute pression) et nuire aux plantes vivantes.

• Toujours éloigner la laveuse haute pression d’au moins

1,2 m (4 pi) de toutes surfaces (telles que desmaisons,

voitures, ou des plantes vivantes) qui pourraient

être endommagées par la chaleur s’échappant du

silencieux.

• De l’essence mal entreposée pourrait provoquer un

allumage (incendie) accidentel. Ranger l’essence de

façon sécuritaire pour en empêcher l’accès aux enfants

et à toutes autres personnes non qualiées.

• Entreposer l’essence dans un contenant homologué

par la Loi sur la santé et la sécurité du travail dans un

emplacement sécuritaire loin de la zone de travail.

• L’utilisation d’acides, de produits chimiques toxiques ou

corrosifs, de poisons, d’insecticides ou de toute sorte de

solvant inammable dans ce produit pourrait provoquer

des blessures graves ou la mort.

• Ne pas vaporiser des liquids inammables.

RISQUE D’EXPLOSION OU D’INCENDIE

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES (SUITE)

• CONSERVER TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS

CE QUI PEUT SE PRODUIRE COMMENT L’ÉVITER

• Votre laveuse haute pression fonctionne à

des pressions de liquides et des vitesses

sufsamment élevées pour pénétrer

la peau de l’homme et animale, ce qui

pourrait se solder par une amputation

ou autre blessure grave. Des fuites

provoquées par des raccords lâches ou

des tuyaux usés ou endommagés peuvent

se solder par des blessures par injection.

NE PAS TRAITER UN INJECTION DE

LIQUIDE COMME UNE SIMPLE COUPURE

! Consulter un médecin immédiatement !

• Inspecter périodiquement le tuyau haute pression. Remplacer

immédiatement le tuyau s’il est endommagé, usé, s’il a fondu en

contact avec le moteur ou s’il démontre un signe de ssure, des bulles,

des trous d’épingle ou tout autre fuite. Ne jamais saisir untuyau haute

pression quifuit ou est endommagé.

• Ne jamais toucher, saisir ou essayer de couvrir un trou minuscule ou

tout autre fuite similaire sur le tuyau haute pression.

• Le jet d’eau EST sous haute pression et PÉNÈTRERA la peau.

• Ne jamais mettre les mains devantl’embouchure.

• Éloigner le jet, ne pas le diriger vers soimême ou autrui.

• S’assurer que le tuyau et les raccords sont serrés et en bon état. Ne

jamais s’agripper au tuyau ou aux raccords en cours de fonctionnement.

• Ne pas mettre le tuyau en contact avec le silencieux.

• Ne jamais attacher ou retirer le tube ou les raccords du tuyau avec le

système sous pression.

• Il y a risque de blessures si la pression

n’est pas réduite avant d’essayer de

procéder à un entretien ou un démontage.

• Pour décompresser le système, éteindre le moteur, fermer

l’approvisionnement en eau et enclencher la détente du pistolet jusqu’à

l’arrêt complet de l’écoulement d’eau.

• Utiliser uniquement des tuyaux et accessoires classés pour des

pressions plus élevées que le PSI de la laveuse haute pression.

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES (SUITE)

• CONSERVER TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS

CE QUI PEUT SE PRODUIRE COMMENT L’ÉVITER

• Un jet de liquide à haute vitesse

peut briser des objets et projeter

les éclats à haute vitesse.

• Des objets légers ou mal xés peu-

vent se transformer en projectiles

dangereux.

• Toujours porter des lunettes de sécurité conformes à la norme ANSI Z87.1

Porter des vêtements protecteurs pour se protéger de jets accidentels.

• Ne jamais diriger la lance ou le jet vers une personne ou des animaux.

• Toujours xer solidement le verrou de la détentelorsque le tube pulvérisateur

est inutilisé pour empêcher tout fonctionnement accidentel.

• Ne jamais xer, de façon permanente, la détente en position arrière (ouverte).

DANGER

RISQUE DE BLESSURE PAR JET

CE QUI PEUT SE PRODUIRE COMMENT L’ÉVITER

• Une utilisation dangereuse de la

laveuse haute pression pourrait

provoquer de graves blessures, voire

son proper décès ou celle d’autres

personnes.

• Ne pas utiliser de produit à blanchir au chloreou tout autre composé corrosif.

• Se familiariser ave le fonctionnement et les commandes de la laveuse haute

pression.

• Tenir la zone de travail exempte de toutes personnes, animaux et obstacles.

blessure grave à la main ou au bras.

• Si le moteur ne démarre pas après deux tentatives, appuyer sur la détente

du pistolet pour décompresser la pompe. Tirer délicatement la corde du

démarreur jusqu’à obtention d’une résistance. Puis tirer rapidement sur

celui-ci pour éviter l’effet de rebond moteur et empêcher toute blessure à la

main ou au bras.

• Le pistolet et le tube de pulvérisation

sont des outils de nettoyage

puissants qui ressemblent à un jouet

pour un enfant.

* Garder la laveuse haute pression hors de portée des enfants en tout temps.

• Le pistolet et le tube de pulverization

réagissent à la pression du jet et

provoqueront un effet de rebond

qui pourrait faire glisser, ou tomber,

l’opérateur ou rediriger le jet. Une

maîtrise imparfaite du pistolet et

de la lance peut provoquer des

blessures à soi même et à autrui.

• Ne pas trop tendre les bras ou se tenir debout sur une surface instable.

• Ne pas utiliser une laveuse haute pression debout sur une échelle.
