HOW TO USE YOUR PRESSURE WASHER

IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS operating your pres- sure washer, please call the pressure washer helpline at 1-800-222-3136.

HOW TO USE THE-ADJUSTABLE NOZZLE

On the end of your spray gun is a nozzle that you can slide forward and backward and that you can

also twist from side to side. With the adjustable noz- zle you can adjust the spray pattern to be either high pressure or low pressure. You can also adjust the spray so it is concentrated in a stream pattern or expanded into a fan pattern.

???Slide the nozzle forward when you wish to adjust the spray to low pressure mode. Slide the nozzle backward to achieve high pressure.

???If you get spray nozzle too close, especially using high pressure mode, you may damage the clean- ing surface.

APPLYING DETERGENT AND CLEANING WITH

ADJUSTABLE NOZZLE

IMPORTANT: Use soaps designed specifically for

pressure washers. Household detergents could dam-

age the pump.

IMPORTANT: You must attach all hoses before you

start the engine. Starting the engine withoutall the hoses connected and without the water turned ON

willdamage the pump.

To apply detergent follow these steps:

???Prepare the detergent solution as required by the job.

Hang the detergent solutionon the "J" hook on the wire form on the guide handle.

Place small filter on the clear, chemical injection tube into the detergent container.

???Twisting the nozzle adjusts the spray pattern from a narrow pattern to a fan pattern.

???Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pres- sure mode. Detergent cannot be applied with nozzle in high pressure position.

Note: The first step involves applying an appropriate detergent/solvent solutionto penetrate and loosen

grime. The detergent is applied at low pressure to

avoid splashing,oversprayingand waste. Leave the solution on surface for 3 to 5 minutes to allow solu-

tion to work.

Note: The second step involves cleaning the surface you have prepared with the pressure washer and

then rinsingit clean.

Review the use of the adjustable nozzle.

For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle

between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning sur- face.

Connect garden hose to water inlet (see "TO START PRESSURE WASHER"), check that high pressure hose is connected to spray gun and pump (see ASSEMBLY), and start engine.

For cleaning, start at lower portion of area to be washed and work upward, using long, even over- lapping strokes.

Allow the detergent to soak in between 3-5 min- utes before washing and rinsing.

RINSING WITH THE PRESSURE WASHER

A WARNING Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from ladder, scaf- folding or any other relatively unstable loca- tion. Pressure in a running washer builds in the wand as you climb. When you press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray could force you to fall, or if you are too close to the cleaning surface, high pressure could force you off a climbing apparatus.

D

Hook up the water supply and start your pressure washer (see TO START THE PRESSURE WASHER).

Slide adjustable nozzle back to high pressure position and wait for detergent to clear. Detergent will not flow when in the high pressure mode.

When detergent has cleared you may want to expand the spray pattem for a more gentle rinsing action. Start at top of area to be dnsed, working down with same action as for cleaning.

You can also stop detergent from flowing by simply

removing siphon from bottle.

HOW TO STOP YOUR PRESSURE WASHER

???Move the Throttle Control Lever to the 'Slow'position,

Note: When addingoil to the engine crankcase in the future, use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service classificationSF or SG rated SAE 30 weight. Use no special additives.

Select the oil'sviscositygrade according to your expect- ed operating temperature.

Although multi-viscosityoils (5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption when used above 32??F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible damage from running low on oil.

???Place pressure washer on a level surface

???Clean area around oil fill and remove oil dipstick.

???Wipe dipstick clean.

???Pour oil from enclosed bottle into the oil fill opening until oil reaches FULL mark on the dipstick. Stop and check the oil level periodically. DO NOT OVERFILL.

???Install oil dipstick, hand tighten securely.

ADD GASOLINE

Fast

SlowStop

???Wait for the engine to idle down.

???Move the Throttle Control Lever to the 'Stop'position.

???Simply shutting off the engine will not release pressure in the system. Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to relieve pressure in the hose.

Note: A small amount of water will squirt out when you release the pressure.

BEFORE STARTING THE PRESSURE WASHER

To operate the engine you will need to do the following:

ENGINE OIL

A 20 oz. bottle of SAE 30 weight oil is included in the parts carton. Fill engine crankcase with recommended

oil until oil level is at FULL point on dipstick. Do not overfill above that mark. POUR SLOWLY.

WARNING NEVER fill fuel tank indoors. NEVER fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke when filling the fuel tank.

A CAUTION: Do not overfill the fuel tank. Always leave room for expansion.

Use regular UNLEADED gasoline with the pressure washer engine. Regular leaded gasoline may also be used if UNLEADED is not available. Fuel tank capaci- ty is 1.6 U.S. quart.

IMPORTANT: It is importantto prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor,fuel filter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicatesthat 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. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system shouldbe emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. See "Storage" on page 13. Never use engine or carburetorcleaner productsin the fuel tank or perma- nent damage may occur.

???Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.

???Add "UNLEADED" regular gasoline, slowly, to fuel tank.

???Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled gasoline.

TO START YOUR PRESSURE WASHER

You have assembled your high pressurewasher and have prepared the engine for starting.You are now ready to clean your car, boat or whatever you plan to dean.

Place the pressure washer in an area close enough to an outside water source that can flow at a rate of at

least 2 gallons per minute. Connect a garden hose to the water spout.

Check that the.high pressure hose is tightlyconnected to the spray gun and to the pump. See ASSEMBLY section for illustrations.

Pull back on the locking collar to remove the female quick-connect from pump.

Note: You will also need to pull back on the lockingcollar to attach the female quick-connect.

Check inlet screen. If the screen is dirty, clean before attaching to garden hose. If the screen is damaged, Do not connect to the garden hose. Call the pressure washer customer helpline to order a replacement.

Attach the female quick-connect to garden hose and then attach the garden hose to the water inlet. Make

sure the quick--connectis lockedtogether.

???Set Choke Lever to "Choke" position.Note: This is a multi-positionchoke.

.

/

Note: For a warm engine, be sure the Throttle Control Lever is in the 'Fast'position and the Choke Lever is in the "Run" position.

Positionthe nozzle in the low pressure mode (nozzle slidforward) and squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to relieve the air pressure caused by turning ON the water. Water will spew out the gun in a thin stream. Continue to hold trigger until you have a steady stream of water and no air remains in the system. This will make it easier to pull start the engine. Release the trigger.

Engage the safety latch on the gun.

Grasp rope handle and pull slowly until you feel some

resistance. Then pull cord rapidly to overcome com- pression, prevent kickback and start the engine. Let rope return to starter slowly.

Note: Always keep the Throttle Control Lever in the 'Fast' positionwhen operating the pressure washer.

???When the engine starts, gradually move the Choke Lever from one position to the next until it is in the "Run" position.

Note: If after 3 pulls the engine fails to start, move the Choke Lever to the 'Run'position and pull the recoil starter handle rapidly (Max. 3 pulls).

SIPHONING

We recommend that you DO NOT siphon standing water for your water supply. Contaminated, brackish or dirty water can damage the pump. Connect only to household water supply.

TIPS

???Never use the garden hose inlet to siphondetergent or

wax.

???

???Turn on the water.

IMPORTANT: Do not run pump withoutthe water supply connected and turned on. You must follow this caution or

the pump will be damaged.

???Move the Throttle Control Lever to the 'Fast' position

If you have the spray nozzle too far away, the cleaning will not be as effective.

AFTER EACH USE

Water shouldnot remainin the unitfor longperiodsof time.

Sedimentsof mineralscan depositon pumppartsand "freeze" pumpaction.Followtheseproceduresalter every use:

Flush detergent hose by placing the injectorfilter into a pail _f clear water while running Pressure Washer with nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush until you can see clear water runningthrough the tube.

Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove all hoses.

A CAUTION: Be sure throttle lever is in "STOP" position before you continue. If you start engine without the proper water supply connected, you can damage the pump.

Empty the pump of all pumped liquids by pulling recoil handle about 6 times. This should remove most of the

liquid in the pump.

Coil the high pressure hose and inspect it for damage. Cuts in the hose or fraying of it could result in leaks and loss of pressure. Should any damage be found, replace the hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a dam- aged hose. Replace the hose with the genuine Craftsman part.

Drain water from hose and properly hang it on the wire supportprovided on the guide handle.

,_ DANGER: NEVER store engine with fuel in I tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly ventilat- I

??? Store in a clean, dry area.

It is importantto prevent gum deposits from forming in essential fuel system parts such as the carburetor,fuel fil- ter, fuel hose or tank during storage. Also, experience indicates that alcohol-blendedfuels (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.

To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Follow these instructions:

PROTECT FUEL SYSTEM

_k DANGER: Drain fuel into approved con- tainer outdoors, away from open flame. Be

sure engine is cool. Do not smoke.

Remove all gasoline from the fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming on these parts and causing pos- sible malfunctionof engine.

Run engine until engine stops from lack of fuel. Make sure you have water supply to pump inlet connected and turned ON.
