defined in Section 4442, maintained in

effective working order. Other states or federal

jurisdictions may have similar laws.

Only operate power washer outdoors in a well

ventilated area. Never operate power washer

indoors, or in a confined space. Be aware of

building openings and ventilation systems

where exhaust may enter during use.

• Verify power washer is placed on level

ground to avoid tipping during operation.

• Only use the unit outdoors. Verify exhaust

gas does not enter a confined area through

windows, doors, ventilation intakes.

•See Figure 3-1 Keep at least 5 ft (1.5 m) of

clearance on all sides of power washer

including overhead from dwellings and

combustibles, when in use.

Electric Start

NOTE: The battery must be installed before

Electric Start operation. For initial battery

installation, see Assembly.

This power washer is equipped with both

electric start and recoil start capabilities. Avoid

prolonged cranking as it can damage the

engine. To extend the life of the starter, use

short starting cycles (no longer than 5

seconds). Wait 30 seconds between starting

cycles.

If the engine will not crank, the battery

temperature may be too hot. Remove the

battery and allow to cool before attempting to

start.

Power Washer Start-Up

NOTE: DO NOT run power washer without a

sufficient water supply turned ON. Damage to

equipment resulting from failure to follow this

instruction will void warranty.

Electric Start

1. Connect a sufficient water supply.

2. Push and hold the Start/Stop button for 3

seconds or until button illuminates to

energize starter system. See Figure 3-2.

Figure 3-2. Push Start/Stop Button

3. Hold trigger on spray gun while pushing

the Start/Stop button for 1 second to start

engine.

4. Release trigger on spray gun once engine

starts.

NOTE: For Electric Start, the battery may

require charging for the power washer to start.

See Maintaining the Battery. If the start button

fails to start the engine, the power washer can

be started with the recoil start.

Recoil Start

1. Connect a sufficient water supply.

2. Relieve spray gun pressure.

3. Place foot on unit to secure unit from

movement when pulling recoil.

4. Hold trigger on spray gun while firmly

grasping the recoil handle. Pull slowly until

resistance is felt. Then pull rapidly to start

engine. See Figure 3-3.

5. Return recoil handle slowly. DO NOT let

recoil snap back against recoil housing.

After engine-start attempt, if engine fails to

run, point spray gun in safe direction, and

squeeze spray gun trigger to release high

pressure. Repeat steps 3 through 5.
