While  your  pressure  washer  has  been  produced  with 
quality materials and craftsmanship, you as the owner 
have certain responsibilities for the correct care of the 
equipment.    Attention  to  regular  preventative 
maintenance  procedures  will  assist  in  preserving  the 
performance of your equipment.   
 

Contact your Hot2Go dealer for maintenance.  A small 
investment in preventative maintenance will add many 
hours  to  the  life  of  your  pressure  washer.    Perform 
maintenance more often under severe conditions.  Do 
not spray high-pressure water onto the machine.  

Not 

all maintenance items apply to all machines.
