BASIC ELEMENTS OF A

PRESSURE WASHER

High Pressure Pump: Increases the

pressure of the water supply.

Engine: Drives the high pressure

pump. Refer to the engine manual

for location and operation of engine

controls.

High Pressure Hose: Carries the pres-

surized water from the pump to the

gun and spray wand.

Spray Gun: Connects with spray wand

to control water flow rate, direction,

and pressure.

Quick-Connect Spray Wand: Allows

the user to quickly change out high-

pressure nozzles. Refer to Spray Wand

Nozzles.

Chemical Hose (not shown): Feeds

cleaning agents into the pump to mix

with the water. See

How To Apply

Chemicals/Cleaning Solvents

PRESSURE WASHER OPERATING

FEATURES

Pressure Adjustments

The pressure setting is preset at the fac-

tory to achieve optimum pressure and

cleaning. If you need to lower the pres-

sure, it can be accomplished by these

methods.

1. Back away from the surface to

be cleaned. The further away you

are, the less the pressure will be on

the surface to be cleaned.

2. Change to the 40º nozzle - (white)

this nozzle delivers a less powerful

stream of water and a wider spray

pattern.

Spray Wand Nozzles

The nozzles for the spray wand are

stored in the nozzle holder on the panel

assembly. Refer to the following chart

to choose the correct nozzle for the job

to be performed.

BASIC ELEMENTS OF AN

ENGINE

Refer to the engine manual for location

and operation of engine controls.

Choke Control: Opens and closes car-

buretor choke valve.

Starter Grip: Pulling starter grip oper-

ates recoil starter to crank engine.

Engine Switch: Enables and disables

ignition system.

PRESSURE WASHER

TERMINOLOGY

PSI:Pounds per Square Inch. The unit

of measure for water pressure. Also

used for air pressure, hydraulic pres-

sure, etc.

GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of

measure for the flow rate of water.

CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied

by psi. GPM x psi = CU

Bypass Mode: Allows water to

re-circulate within pump when the gun

trigger is not pulled.

Allowing the unit to

run for more than

two minutes without the gun trigger

pulled could cause overheating and

damage to the pump.

Thermal Relief Valve:

Thermal Relief

Valve

When the temperature

inside the pump rises

too high the valve will

open and release a

gush of water in an

effort to lower the

temperature inside the

pump. The valve will then close.

Chemical Injection System: Mixes

cleaners or cleaning solvents with

the water to improve cleaning

effectiveness.

Water Supply: All pressure washers

must have a source of water. The min-

imum requirements for a water supply

are 20 psi and 5 gallons per minute.
