Longer hoses could affect pressurewasher and chemical injector performance to Water SupplyConnect hose with at least a 3/4--in (19 mm) ID from the water supply to the 3/4--in garden hose inleton the Pressure washer . The supply hose should not be more than 50 ft (15 m) you connect the garden hose to the Pressure washer , check your local plumbing code regardingcross--connection to the water supply. If required, install a backflow the inlet water Pressure is over 60 psi ( bar), a regulating water valve must be installed at the gardenhose not exceed 160_F(70_C) inlet water :The water source must have a minimum flow rate equal to that of the Pressure RELIEFF ollow these instructions whenever you are instructed to relieve pres-sure, stop spraying for more than 10 minutes, check or service theequipment, or install or clean the spray Engage trigger safety Turn Pressure washer Remove ignition cable from spark Shut off water supply.

Then re--engage the safety :If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is clogged or that Pressure has not been fully relieved afterfollowing the steps above, disengage the trigger safety latch and trigger the gun to relieve the oil level of the engine and use this startup procedure to ensure that the Pressure washer is started safely and engage the gun trigger safety latch when you stop spraying. This reduces the risk of fluidinjection or splashing in the eyes or on the skin if the gun is bumped or triggered observe the CAUTIONS in this section to avoid costly damage to the Pressure you use the Sandblaster Kit, see the Sandblaster Kit Manual for detailed cleaning :All Honda engine powered Pressure Washers are equipped with an engine low-oil sensor that shuts theengine off if the oil level falls below a certain level.

6 If the engine stops unexpectedly, check the oil and the fuellevels. Check the oil level each time you add levelFIRE HAZARDDo not refuel a hot engine. Refueling a hot engine could cause a fire. Use only fresh, clean,regular or unleaded gasoline. Close the fuel shutoff valve during Check fuel oil level in pump. It should be half way up the sightglass located on the front of the pump. Add pump oil asnecessary. The system isequipped with a thermal over-load to help prevent severe levelNOTE:It is important to drain and refill the pump oil after the first 50 hours of on water the gun until a constant stream of water sprays from the tip indicatingthe air is purged from the fuel shutoff valve. Be sure the spark plug ignitioncable is pushed firmly onto the spark the switch in the ON position and the throttle at run Pressure washer without water. Costly damage to the pump will result.

7 Always be sure the watersupply is completely turned on before you run the Pressure the starter rope quickly to start the and return the rope until the engine : Placing one foot on the Pressure washeras a brace provides better not allow Pressure washer to idle for more than 10 minutes. This causes the recirculating water tooverheat and serious damage to pump. Turn off Pressure washer if it will not be spraying at least every 10minutes. If heated inlet water is used, reduce this time more. Do not operate Pressure washer with inletwater screen removed. This screen helps keep abrasive sediment out of pump, which could clog pump ordamage cylinders. Keep screen clean. Do not pump caustic materials; such materials could corrode :For easier starting, have one person start Pressure washer while another triggers engine is cold, start engine with choke completely closed.

8 In cool weather, you might have to let enginerun with choke closed for first 10--30 seconds. In warm weather, open choke completely as soon as en-gine engine is warm, start engine with choke completely open or partially closed.
