ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Pressure Hose, Trigger Gun and Wand:
Install the pressure hose on the pressure washer as
shown in illustration.
Assemble wand components as shown below.
INSTALLATION
Place machine in a convenient location providing ample
support, drainage and room for maintenance.
IMPORTANT: Proper initial installation of equipment
will assure more satisfactory performance, longer
service life, and lower maintenance cost.
IMPORTANT: The use of a backflow preventer on the
water supply hose is recommended and may be re-
quired by local code.
Location:
The location should protect the machine from damag-
ing environmental conditions, such as wind, rain, and
freezing.
This machine should be run on a level surface where it
is not readily influenced by outside sources such as
strong winds, freezing temperatures, rain, etc. It should
be located to allow accessibility for refilling of fuel, ad-
justments and maintenance. Normal precautions should
be taken by the operator of the machine to prevent mois-
ture from reaching the electrical controls.
It is recommended that a partition be made between the
wash area and the machine to prevent water spray from
coming in contact with the machine. Excess moisture
reaching any electrical components or electrical controls
will reduce machine life and may cause electrical shorts.
Avoid small locations or areas near exhaust fans.
In addition, the pressure washer should never be oper-
ated in an enclosed area where high ambient tempera-
tures exist. High ambient temperatures (above 100°F)
can cause engine oil failure and will greatly reduce the
engine's performance.
