PRESSURE REGULATOR

When purchased, the pressure regulator

may be set to minimum.

Turn the pressure regulator on the pump

fully clockwise to allow water pressure to

increase when the pressure washer is

running.

If you find the pressure is too high, you

can adjust this later by turning the

regulator anti-clockwise.

SAFETY FEATURES

Bypass mode: In bypass mode, the pump recirculates the water because the trigger

of the spray gun is not being pulled. If the unit is left in bypass mode for more than

two minutes, the water temperature will rise to a dangerous level and could damage

internal components of the pump.

NOTE: Any damage to the pump due to these causes will not be covered under

warranty.

Thermal Relief Valve: In an effort to

prevent damage, pumps are equipped

with a thermal relief valve. This valve will

open when the temperature inside the

pump becomes too high. The valve will

then release a gush of water in an effort

to lower the temperature inside the

pump. Immediately after this occurs, the

valve will close.

STARTING YOUR POWER WASHER

Prior to starting, refer to your engine manual for proper starting procedures for your

engine type.

1. Make sure the engine has sufficient fuel. See page 12.

2. Check the engine oil level. See page 11.

WARNING: FAILURE TO TURN ON THE WATER COULD CAUSE

DAMAGE TO THE PUMP.
