Preparing the Trailer for Cold Weather
The “Express” Hot Pressure Washer Trailer must be pro-
tected from freezing.
Drain the tank by removing the plug from the Tee beneath
the tank. Treat the plug with thread sealant and replace
the plug when the tank is empty.
The pressure washer must have an anti-freeze solution
circulated throughout the washer by one of two options.
RV anti-freeze is a recommended solution.
(1) Pour a couple of gallons of anti-freeze solution in the
empty tank. Open the tank valve. Remove the spray tip,
start the pressure washer, open the spray gun and run until
antifreeze runs out of the end of the gun.
(2) With the main tank empty, attach a short hose to the
garden hose tting, insert the hose into a container of
anti-freeze solution. Close the tank valve and open the ll
valve. Remove the spray tip, start the pressure washer,
open the spray gun and run until antifreeze runs out of the
end of the gun.
