the hose, creating tight loops if the hose is not straight.

3.

Securely connect the gun assembly to the high pressure hose.

NOTE: The nozzle assembly should NOT be connected to the gun as-

sembly at this time. See “Nozzle Connection”.

3.

With the trigger gun locked in the “OFF” position, turn the water supply
completely on.  Pointing the gun in a safe direction, unlock the trigger gun
and squeeze the trigger.

THE WAND TO PREVENT ACCI-
DENTAL DISCHARGE!

START-UP:

1.

Refer to the “Safety Precautions” before starting the unit.

2.

Locate the Safety Decals on your unit and heed their warnings.

3.

With the gun locked in the “OFF” position, point the trigger gun away from

created by the pump once the 

motor

 has started.

6.

Steady the unit during start-up.  

Slowly apply air flow to the motor, not 

to exceed 100 psi / 7 bar.

7.

Once the 

motor

 has started, perform the following procedures with the

 

gun open:

a.

Inspect for system oil leaks and fuel leaks.  If a

n oil

 leak is found,

 

TURN UNIT OFF IMMEDIATELY!  See “Fire & Ventilation Precautions”.

problems are corrected prior to operation of the unit.  If you require

 

service, contact Customer Service.

b.

Inspect high pressure hoses for kinking, cuts and leaks.  If a cut

 

or leak is found, DO NOT TOUCH HOSE AT LEAK!!!  TURN UNIT

 

OFF IMMEDIATELY!  Replace hose before restarting the unit.  See

“OFF” position whenever changing the quick connect nozzles.  NEVER
look directly into the nozzle!  High pressure water creates a risk of severe
injury!

9.

Do not allow unit to operate in bypass mode (with trigger closed) for more
than three minutes without triggering the gun.  Failure to follow this simple
rule can cause premature failure of pump packing seals, resulting in costly
pump repair.

of spray patterns, there are many cleaning jobs that can be done without
the use of detergents.  If a cleaning agent is required, see “Cleaning With
Detergents” for the correct procedures.

CAUTION RISK OF

DO NOT ALLOW SPRAY PAT-
TERN TO REMAIN ON A FIXED 
AREA FOR AN EXTENDED 
PERIOD OF TIME.  POSSIBLE  
DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE 
AREA.

CAUTION RISK OF UNIT

BE CERTAIN THE NOZZLE IS 
NOT CONNECTED TOT HE UNIT 
WHILE PRIMING THE PUMP.  
PRIMING ALLOWS MINERAL
