Cleaning and Maintenance / Technical Specifications
8. Cleaning and Maintenance
8.1 Connections
The connections on the pressure washer’s
hoses, gun, and spray wand should be cleaned
and lubricated with non-water soluble grease
regularly.
8.2 Cleaning the Nozzles
Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump pressure
to be too high, making it necessary to clean the
nozzle immediately. You can clean the nozzle by
carefully inserting the cleaning needle or a thin,
sharp instrument (i.e. paperclip) into the tip to
clean out any deposits.
8.3 Water Filter Screen
The pressure washer is equipped with a water
inlet screen to protect the pump. If the screen is
not kept clean, the flow of water to the pressure
washer will be restricted, and the pump may
become damaged.
To clean the water inlet screen:
• Remove the filter screen from inside the inlet
adaptor
(the inlet adaptor comes pre-assembled to
the machine).
• Rinse the screen until it is free of debris and
obstructions.
• Place the screen back to prevent foreign
particles from entering the pump.
