system after each use by placing the filter into a bucket of
clean water, then run the pressure washer in low pressure
for 1-2 minutes.
Pressure Washer Rinsing

check surface for damage. If no damage is found, you
can assume it is okay to continue rinsing.

same overlapping strokes as you used for cleaning.
Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube
If you used the detergent siphoning tube, you must flush it
with clean water before stopping the engine.

when engine is stopped and water is disconnected.
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. The system engages to cool the pump by discharging
the warm water onto the ground.
NOTICE
You must attach all hoses before you start the engine.
• Starting the engine without all the hoses connected and without
the water turned ON will damage the pump.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void warranty.
WARNING
Kickback from spray gun can cause you to fall.
• Operate pressure washer from a stable surface.
• Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from
a ladder, scaffolding, or any other similar location.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury when spray gun kicks back.
WARNING
The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin and its
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when
engine is stopped and water is disconnected,
which can cause injury.
• Keep high pressure hoses connected to pump, hose reel 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.
