CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. The GFCI module on the end of the power cord must be plugged directly into an
outlet.
2. Do not use an extension cord.
3. With the GFCI Connected make sure the power switch is turned on.
Note: When power switch is turned on, the power washer will turn on by itself for 1-2
seconds and shut off. This is normal.
1. In most cases, the spray gun is not the problem. The problem is the rubber sleeve
covering the fitting at the end of the high pressure hose. It has likely slipped up
toward the metal tip. To fix: wiggle, twist and/or pull the rubber sleeve down until the
entire tip is visible plus an 1/8 in. of the metal fitting below the tip. Now try to insert
the hose tip into the spray gun. It should "click" into place and will not come out
until the hose is released by pushing in the lever on the underside of the gun. You
may cut away the end of the sleeve with a sharp knife if unable to move the sleeve
down. Be careful not to cut or puncture the hose.
2. Do not push in the release button when connecting the high pressure hose.
1. Power should NOT be turned on until water comes through the spray gun. Doing so
will damage the motor.
2. Check the water source.
3. Eject the nozzle from the lance to determine if clog is coming from the nozzle (If
nozzle is clogged, see nozzle cleaning instructions under "Cleaning nozzles").
4. Take off the lance and just spray out of the spray gun. This will indicate if the
problem is with the lance.
5. Check Garden Hose Adapter for loose connection and the filter for debris.
1. Make sure there is an o-ring at the end of the metal tip of the high pressure hose.
If no o-ring is present, the connection between the hose and spray gun will leak.
O-Ring Replacement Kit (L) is included with purchase.
1. All lances and the detergent bottles are attached and removed from the extension
lance in the same manner. Insert the quick-release end of the lance/detergent
bottle into the extension lance. Press the extension lance and lance together
(about a 1/8") and turn clockwise. The lance will lock in place. Remove the lance
by reversing this procedure. Press the extension lance and lance together and
turn counter clockwise. The lance will slide out.
2. Or, hold the extension lance and lance in an upright position with the nozzle end
on the floor. Push the whole assembly straight down to loosen the connection,
and then follow the removal process again. You may also spray soapy water or a
lubricant in the area where the lance connects to the extension lance.
