Your pressure washer is equipped with five nozzles. To
install a nozzle simply pull back the collar and push the
nozzle into the coupler. Once the connection is made,
pull on the nozzle to assure a tight connection.
WARNING: Make sure the nozzle is correctly
inserted. The nozzle may become a projectile if not
inserted correctly. Do not attempt to use different
types of nozzles that may not fit the coupler.
VI.) Turn the pump switch ON.
1. Make sure the hose is not kinked. A kinked hose
will provide insufficient water supply to the pump and
will reduce its life. Make sure the hose remains
unkinked after moving the pressure washer.
VII.) For Hot Water
1. If HOT water is desired, make sure there is fuel in
the fuel tank, turn the heat switch ON, and adjust the
thermostat to the desired temperature(if applicable).
The burner will fire when the trigger is squeezed.
You may need to initially adjust your burner for peak
performance. See the “Oil Burner” section under
INSTALLATION. When the trigger is released or the
temp setting is reached, the burner will automatically
turn off.
IMPORTANT: Do not run the machine in hot mode
without any fuel in the fuel tank. The fuel pump will
be damaged if it is run dry.
To Clean
WARNING: Wear eye, ear, hand, foot and skin
protection at all times while operating this pressure
washer.
DANGER: Do not point the spray wand at yourself or
at any person. Bodily injury may result from water
under high pressure.
CAUTION: Be careful on painted or delicate
surfaces, the pressure may damage the surface if
the nozzle is too close.
IMPORTANT: Your spray gun is equipped with a
built-in trigger safety latch to guard against
accidental trigger actuation and potentially
dangerous high-pressure spray. Rotate the safety
latch to the locked position when not spraying.
NOTE: Your pressure washer is equipped with a low
pressure chemical injector. You do not need to use
chemicals for every job, however, the proper
chemical used for the proper application can speed
up cleaning jobs tremendously.
WARNING: Only use North Star pressure washer
chemicals or chemicals specifically formulated for
pressure washers. Follow the chemical
manufacturer’s recommendations. Understand all
safety precautions and first aid for all chemicals.
1. Snap the quick couple chemical injector onto the high
pressure water outlet and high pressure hose and
submerge the suction strainer into the chemical
solution.
2. The amount of chemical applied can be changed by
turning the chemical adjustment knob located on the
chemical injector.
