G. Stopping the machine
1.
If using the detergent injector, flush out the
chemical by running clean water through the
system.
2.
Allow machine to run for 1 minute without load to
cool before stopping.
3.
Turn motor switch to OFF
4.
Turn off water supply.
5.
Pull gun trigger to release all pressure in the
system, then LOCK THE TRIGGER.
6.
Hoses may now be disconnected from the
machine.
Failure to release pressure before disconnecting the
hose quick coupler will result in the quick coupler o-
ring seal blowing out. This o-ring must be replaced
before operating machine.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
AFTER EACH USE
If cleaning agents have been mixed with the incoming
water, it is essential to flush the machine with clean
water after use.
If there is a danger of freezing anti-freeze should be
mixed with the flush water or the machine must be
completely drained.
After the final flush stop the machine. DO NOT allow
the machine to idle for more than 15 seconds. This is
particularly important when there is a danger of
freezing. Do not run for longer without water supply.
STORAGE
Store the washer in an upright position, preferably
drained of water if there is a danger of freezing (or fill
with anti-freeze).
PUMP CRANKCASE LUBRICATION
Proper pressure washer pump crankcase lubrication
will help extend the working life of the machine. Follow
these important guidelines. We recommend keeping a
simple service log book.
Change oil in pump after initial 50 hour run-in
period. (SAE 75W-90)
Change pump oil every 3 months, use high
quality oil. (SAE 75W-90)
Pump oil level can be checked with the dip stick
under the breather cap or by viewing the oil sight
gauge where fitted. The oil level is correct if level
is in the centre of the gauge. If oil level is low, fill
to correct level with recommended oil (SAE 75W-
90).
DO NOT
OVERFILL CRANKCASE!
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Keep filter in supply hose connection clean, rinse
regularly.
Drain water from pressure hoses, gun/lance
assembly and accessories after use.
Protect pump from freezing. Failure to remove
water from the pump in freezing temperatures will
result in damaged pump manifold.
Use ONLY injector of the size and type designed
for this model.
DO NOT
tamper with unloader valve adjustment.
DO NOT
siphon chemicals through the pump, it is
designed for water only.
Incoming water supply must not exceed 60ºC,
otherwise pumps seal damage could result.
