Add Engine Oil

IMPORTANT: Any attempt to crank or start the engine
before it has been properly serviced with the
recommended oil may result in an engine failure.
NOTE: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF, SG, SH, SJ or higher. DO NOT use
special additives.
1. Choose a viscosity according to the following table.
5W-30, 10W-30
Synthetic 5W-30, 10W-30
°F -20 0 20
°C -30 -20 -10
STARTING TEMPERATURE RANGE ANTICIPATED BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE
* The use of multi-viscosity oils (5W-30, 10W-30, etc.)
in temperatures above 40°F (4°C) will result in higher
than normal oil consumption. When using a multi-
viscosity oil, check oil more frequently.
** If using SAE 30 oil in temperatures below 40°F
(4°C), it will result in hard starting and possible
engine bore damage due to inadequate lubrication.
2. Place pressure washer on a level surface and
clean area around oil fill.
3. Remove dipstick and wipe clean with cloth.
4. Replace and tighten dipstick.Remove and check
oil level.
5. Slowly pour oil into oil fill opening. Pause to permit
oil to settle. Fill to "Full" mark on dipstick. DO NOT
OVERFILL. Remove dipstick and check oil level.
NOTE: You may not need to use all the supplied oil.

NOTE: Check oil often during engine break–in.
Add Fuel
Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable
and explosive.
Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or
death.
WHEN ADDING FUEL
• Turn pressure washer OFF and let it cool at least 2
minutes before removing fuel cap. Loosen cap slowly to
relieve pressure in tank.
• Fill or drain fuel tank outdoors.
• DO NOT overfill tank. Allow space for fuel expansion.
• Keep fuel away from sparks, open flames, pilot lights,
heat, and other ignition sources.
• DO NOT light a cigarette or smoke.
NOTE: This engine is certified to operate on gasoline.
Exhaust Emission Control System: EM (Engine
Modifications).
1. Use clean, fresh, regular UNLEADED fuel with a
minimum of 77 octane with equipment. DO NOT
use fuel which contains Methanol. DO NOT mix oil
with fuel.
2. Clean area around fuel fill cap, remove cap.
3. Slowly add regular unleaded fuel to fuel tank. Be
100
careful not to overfill. Allow about 1.5" of tank
40
space for fuel expansion, as shown here.
4. Install fuel cap and wipe up any spilled fuel.
CAUTION!
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 should be
emptied before storage of 30 days or longer. Drain the
fuel tank, start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season.
See "Storage" on pages 18-19 for additional information.
NEVER use engine or carburetor cleaner products in
the fuel tank as permanent damage may occur.
