PUMP DAMAGE
SIMPSON

Pump Guard (purchase separately) is formulated to protect your pump
during long-term storage and from freezing damage. Pump Guard should be used
throughout the season to keep the seals pliable and well lubricated. Before storing
the unit for winter or for when there is a chance of freezing weather, use pump guard
to remove all traces of water from the internal cavities while lling them with an
antifreeze solution.
Simply use Pump Guard by following these easy steps:
1. Screw the Pump Guard adapter into the garden hose input on the pump.
2. Press and hold down on the button until all the water and the Pump Guard starts to
come out of the high pressure port.
3. Unscrew the Pump Guard from the pump then prepare the pressure washer for
storage as outlined in STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION.
