Connect Hose and Water Supply to
Pump
IMPORTANT: You must assemble the nozzle extension
and attach all hoses before you start the engine. Starting
engine without all hoses connected and water supplied will
damage the pump.
• Uncoil high pressure hose and attach quick connect end
of hose to the base of the spray gun (Figure 4). Pull
down on the collar of the quick connect, slide onto the
gun and let go of collar. Tug on hose to be sure of a
tight connection.
• Attach the other end of the high pressure hose to the
high pressure outlet on the pump (Figure 5). Pull down
on the collar of the quick connect, slide onto the pump
and let go of collar. Pull on hose to be sure of a tight
connection.
• Before you connect your garden hose to the water inlet,
inspect the inlet screen (Figure 5). Clean the screen if it
contains debris or have it replaced if damaged. DO NOT
RUN THE PRESSURE WASHER IF THE SCREEN IS
DAMAGED.
• Run water through your garden hose for 30 seconds to
clean out any debris.
• Connect the garden hose to the water inlet. Tighten by
hand (Figure 5).
WARNING! There MUST be at least ten feet of
unrestricted garden hose between the pressure
washer inlet and any flow shut off device, such as a
‘Y’ shut-off connector or other convenience-type
water shut-off valve. Damage to pressure washer
resulting from disregarding this warning will not be
covered by the warranty.
• Turn ON the water.
• Squeeze the trigger on the gun until you have a steady
stream of water to purge the pump system of air and
impurities.

be sure you are wearing adequate eye protection.

hand (Figure 6).
