treated as described in Protect Fuel System.

cause problems if it’s used with this unit.
3. Cover unit with a suitable protective cover that does not retain
moisture.

• Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and render your
unit inoperable.
• Freeze damage is not covered under warranty.
WARNING

• DO NOT place a storage cover over a hot pressure washer.
• Let equipment cool for a sufficient time before placing the cover on
the equipment.

Protect Fuel System
Fuel Additive:
Fuel will become stale when stored over 30 days. Stale fuel causes acids
and gum deposits to form in the fuel system or on essential carburetor
parts. Prior to storage, if petrol has not been treated with a fuel stabilizer,
it must be drained from the engine into an approved container. Then
run engine until it stops from lack of fuel.When fuel stabilizers are used
according to their instructions, there is no need to drain the petrol from the
engine prior to storage. Run the engine for a short time to circulate stabilizer
throughout the fuel system. Engine and fuel can then be stored up to 24
months.
If petrol is drained, the use of a fuel stabilizer in the storage container is still
recommended to maintain freshness.
