Storage
• When your pressure washing session has been
completed, turn off the power switch located on the
front of the power washer. Unplug the power cord
from the outlet. Turn off the water supply. Pull the
trigger on the spray gun 2-3 times to drain out the
excess water and to release any remaining water
pressure. Disconnect the garden hose adapter from
the water inlet. DO NOT allow the power washer to
run with no water owing through it.
• Remove detergent bottle and clean completely.
Residual chemical will stick to the container and can
cause the detergent injector to clog and not function
properly.
• Remove high pressure hose from spray gun.
• Remove lance from the gun. Place the gun in the
holder on the side. Lances are placed into any of the
slots in the back of the unit. Make sure to discard
any remaining detergent from the bottle. Flush the
bottle and nozzle head with fresh water to prevent
clogging.
• Hook the power cord around the cord hook on the
right side of the machine when facing it.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
Unit will not turn on. 1. The GFCI module on the end of the power cord must be plugged directly into an
outlet.
2. Do not use an extension cord.
3. With the GFCI Connected make sure the power switch is turned on.
Note: When power switch is turned on, the power washer will turn on by itself for
1-2 seconds and shut o. This is normal.
The high pressure (HP)
hose will not connect/
stay connected to the
spray gun. Is this a spray
gun problem?
1. In most cases, the spray gun is not the problem. The problem is the rubber sleeve
covering the fitting at the end of the high pressure hose. It has likely slipped up
toward the metal tip. To fix: wiggle, twist and/or pull the rubber sleeve down until
the entire tip is visible plus an 1/8 in. of the metal fitting below the tip. Now try
to insert the hose tip into the spray gun. It should “click” into place and will not
come out until the hose is released by pushing in the lever on the underside of
the gun. You may cut away the end of the sleeve with a sharp knife if unable to
move the sleeve down. Be careful not to cut or puncture the hose.
2. Do not push in the release button when connecting the high pressure hose.
The unit is running but
there is no water flow.
1. Check the water source. Unclog the nozzle on the lance. (See nozzle cleaning
instructions under “Cleaning nozzles”.) Or take o the lance and just spray out of
the spray gun. This will indicate if the problem is with the lance.
Why is water leaking
where the high pressure
hose connects to the
spray gun?
1. Make sure there is an o-ring at the end of the metal tip of the high pressure hose.
If no o-ring is present, the connection between the hose and spray gun will leak.
I can’t remove the lance
from the spray gun.
What should I do?
1. All lances and the detergent bottles are attached and removed from the exten-
sion lance in the same manner. Insert the quick-release end of the lance/deter-
gent bottle into the extension lance. Press the extension lance and lance together
(about a 1/8”) and turn clockwise. The lance will lock in place. Remove the lance
by reversing this procedure. Press the extension lance and lance together and
turn counter clockwise. The lance will slide out.
2. Or, hold the extension lance and lance in an upright position with the nozzle end
on the floor. Push the whole assembly straight down to loosen the connection,
and then follow the removal process again. You may also spray soapy water or a
lubricant in the area where the lance connects to the extension lance.
The power washer turns
on for
2 seconds, shuts o, and
will not turn back on. Do
I have a defective unit?
1. It sounds like your power washer is working just fine. When the water is connect-
ed, the accessories are assembled properly, and the power switch is turned on,
the power washer may turn on for 1 - 2 seconds to prime the pump. It automati-
cally shuts o and waits for the spray gun trigger to be pressed. When the trigger
is pressed, water starts flowing through the pump. The water sensor in the pump
“senses” the moving water and automatically turns the power washer on.
2. Turn the power switch to o, hold in the trigger on the spray gun, so that you
have a steady stream of water. While you are holding the trigger open on the
spray gun, at the same time, turn the power switch on.
Saver begins to exit the HP hose.
