STARTING YOUR WASHER
How to Start Your Pressure Washer
To start your pressure washer for the first time, follow these
instructions step-by-step. This starting information also applies if you
have let the pressure washer sit idle for at least a day.
1. Place pressure washer near an outside water source capable of
supplying water at a flow rate greater than 3.8 gallons per minute and
no less than 20 PSI at pressure washer end of garden hose. DO NOT
siphon supply water.
2. Make sure unit is in a level position.
3. Connect garden hose to water inlet on pressure washer pump.
NOTICE
DO NOT run the pump without the water supply connected and
turned on.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this instruction
will void warranty.
4. Attach wand extension to spray gun. Tighten by hand.
5. Choose desired spray tip, pull back nozzle extension collar, insert
spray tip and release collar. Tug on spray tip to make sure it is
securely in place. See Spray Tips.

Uncoil high pressure hose and attach quick connect end of hose to
base of spray gun. Pull down on collar of quick connect, slide onto
spray gun and let go of collar. Tug on the end of the nozzle to ensure
a snug connection. If loose, repeat this step.
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.
• NEVER connect high pressure hose directly to nozzle extension.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray gun while
system is pressurized.
7. Attach the other end of the high pressure hose to high pressure
outlet (A) on pump. Pull down on collar of quick connect, slide onto
pump and let go of collar. Note that some pumps require the hose to
be threaded on. Tug on the hose to ensure connection is secure.

8. Turn Water Supply on if you have not already done so. Point the
gun in a safe direction and squeeze the trigger to purge the pump of
air and debris. Do this for at least 30 seconds.
9. Take a final look at all connections to make sure there are no leaks
or loose connections. If there are any leaks in hoses, they must be
replaced.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT siphon standing water for the water supply.
Use COLD WATER only (less than 100°F/38°C). Hot water will damage
seals and compromise the integrity of your pump.
