Chemicals/ 

Cleaning soaps 

section.

Chemical injection system: 

Mixes chemical/cleaning soap

Choke control: 

Opens and closes carburetor choke valve. 

nOTE: 

The choke adjust automatically when operating in the 

PRESSUREREADY® system mode, only adjuste the choke when 
operating in Manual Mode.

CU:

 Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by psi. (GPM x PSI = CU)

Fuel valve lever: 

Opens/closes connection between fuel tank 

and carburetor.

gPM*

: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of measure for the flow rate 

of water.

Psi*:

 Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water 

pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.

*  Complies with CETA Performance Standard CPC-100. Values are 

within manufacturing tolerance of +/- 10%.

1

No fuel.

Add fuel.

2

Low or no oil. 

NOTE: 

This pressure washer is equipped with a low oil sensor. If the 

oil is low or the unit is not level the unit will shut off or fail to start. 

Add required amount of oil. 
Ensure the pressure washer is placed on a level surface.

3

Manual mode only:

 

Pressure builds up after two pulls on the 

recoil starter or after initial use.

Squeeze spray gun trigger to relieve pres sure.

4

Choke in the OPEN position.

Move choke to the CLOSED po si tion.

5

Spark plug wire not attached.

Attach spark plug wire.

6

Engine ON/OFF switch in OFF po si tion.

Place engine ON/OFF switch in ON position.

kPa (kilopascal): 

Metric pressure measurement. 1 kilopascal 

equal 1000 pascals.

Quick-connect spray wand: 

Allows the user to quickly change 

out high pressure nozzles. Refer to 

spray Wand nozzles

.

Thermal relief valve (Manual mode only): 

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.

Cold water supply: 

All pressure washers must have a source of 

cold water. The minimum requirements for a water supply are 20 
psi (138 kPa) and 5 gallons per minute.

PREssUREADY® system mode: 

This mode uses an advanced 

electronic system to stop and start the pressure washer 
when the spray gun trigger is squeezed and released. The 
PRESSUREADY® system also communicates with the user 
through fault codes to help diagnose and solve issues with the 
pressure washer.

Manual mode:

 This mode starts the pressure washer  without 

the use of the battery and the PRESSUREADY® system.
