Generac Portable Products 3200 PSI Pressure Washer
SERVICE AND
ADJUSTMENTS
See the Engine Owners Manual for instructions on
how to properly service and adjust the engine.
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR
STORAGE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments of minerals can deposit on the pump
parts and freeze pump action. If you do not plan to
use the pressure washer for more than 30 days, follow
this procedure:
1. Flush detergent hose by placing the injector filter into
a pail of clean water while running pressure washer
with nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush for five min-
utes.
2. Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove all the
hoses.
3. Place the engine switch in the OFF position.
CAUTION! Be sure switch is in OFF position before
you continue. If you start the engine without the
proper water supply connected, you can damage
pump.
4. Empty the pump of all water by pulling the recoil
handle about 6 times. This should remove most of the
liquid in the pump.
NOTE: To protect the unit from freezing
temperatures, draw windshield washer fluid
into the pump by pouring windshield washer
fluid into a 3-foot section of garden hose
connected to the inlet adapter and pulling the
recoil handle twice.
5. Store in a clean dry place
Preparing The Engine For Storage
WARNING! NEVER store engine with fuel in
the tank indoors or in enclosed, poorly
ventilated areas where fumes may reach an
open flame, spark or pilot light as on a furnace,
water heater, clothes dryer or other gas
appliance.
Consult engine owners manual for information on
how to properly prepare the engine for storage.
