Pump
The pump was filled with oil at the factory. The pump on this unit
is maintenance free and requires no oil to be added or changed.
If there is a problem with the pump contact us, see "Service" for
options.
Connections
Connections on pressure washer hoses, gun and spray wand
should be cleaned regularly and lubricated with light oil or
lithium grease to prevent leakage and damage to the o-rings.
Nozzle Cleaning
If the nozzle becomes clogged with foreign materials, such as
dirt, excessive pressure may develop. If the nozzle becomes
partially clogged or restricted, the pump pressure will pulsate.
Clean the nozzle immediately using the nozzle kit supplied and
the following instructions:
1. Shut off the pressure washer and turn off the water supply.
2. Pull trigger on gun handle to relieve any water pressure.
3. Disconnect the spray wand from the gun.
4. Remove the high pressure nozzle from the spray wand.
Remove any obstructions with the nozzle cleaning tool
provided and backflush with clean water. See Figure 6-1.
