ASSEMBLY
 Insert the carriage bolts from the outside through
the holes on the handle and attach the plastic
knobs on the inside. Tighten the knobs by hand
(Figure 2).
 Insert the wire support with the longer arm positioned

Add Engine Oil
WARNING! Any attempt to crank or start the
engine before being properly serviced with the
recommended oil will result in an engine
failure.
Note: When adding oil to the engine crankcase, use
only high quality detergent oil rated with API service
classification SF,SG, SH or SH/CD rated SAE 30
weight. Select the oils viscosity grade according to
your expected operating temperature:
Do Not Use SAE 10W40 Oil.
Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.)
improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity
oils will result in increased oil consumption when used
above 32°F. Check your engine oil level more
frequently to avoid possible damage from running
low on oil.
To fill unit with oil:
 Place pressure washer on a level surface.
 Clean area around oil fill and remove oil fill cap
(Figure 4).
 Pour oil into the oil fill opening until it reaches point
of overflowing. DO NOT OVERFILL.
Note: The bottle of oil included with your pressure
washer contains more oil than the capacity of the
crankcase.
 Install oil fill cap, hand tighten securely.
Note: Check Oil Often During Engine Breakin.
Add Gasoline
DANGER! Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never
fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do
not smoke when filling fuel tank.
WARNING! Never fill fuel tank completely
full. Fill tank to about 1/2" below the bottom of
the filler neck to provide space for fuel
expansion. Wipe away any fuel spillage from
engine and equipment before starting.
The manufacturer recommends fresh, clean unleaded
automotive gasoline.
 Use clean fuel and store in approved containers.
Use clean fill funnels. Never use stale gasoline
left over from last season or gasoline stored for long
periods.
