• Before starting the pressure washer, be sure you are wearing adequate safety goggles. High pressure spray can cause paint chips or other particles to become airborne. WARNING OPERATION 10 HOW TO USE PRESSURE WASHER If you have any problems operating your pressure washer, please contact the local Briggs & Stratton service center. Pressure Washer Location Pressure Washer Clearance Place pressure washer outdoors. DO NOT place pressure washer where exhaust gas could accumulate and enter inside or be drawn into a potentially occupied building. Ensure exhaust gas is kept away from any windows, doors, ventilation intakes or other openings that can allow exhaust gas to collect in a confined area (Figure 9). Prevailing winds and air currents should be taken into consideration when positioning pressure washer. How To Start Pressure Washer To start your pressure washer for the first time, follow these instructions step-by-step.This starting information also applies if you have let the pressure washer sit idle for at least a day. 1. Place pressure washer near an outside water source capable of supplying water at a flow rate greater than 3.5 gallons per minute and no less than 20 PSI at pressure washer end of garden hose. 2. Check that high pressure hose is tightly connected to spray gun and to pump. See “Preparing Pressure Washer for Use” for illustrations. 3. Make sure unit is in level position. 4. Connect garden hose to water inlet on pressure washer pump. 5. Turn ON water, point gun in a safe direction and squeeze trigger to purge pump system of air and impurities. 6. Attach nozzle extension to spray gun (Figure 10). Tighten by hand. 7. Place colored quick connect spray tips in slots on holder that’s attached to nozzle extension (Figure 11). Figure 10 — Connect Nozzle Extension to Spray Gun CAUTION • Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this instruction will void warranty. DO NOT run the pump without the water supply connected and turned on. Figure 9 — Pressure Washer Clearance Exhaust Port Typical Pressure Washer Shown Figure 11 — Install Spray Tips in Holder • Keep at least 5 ft. (152 cm) clearance on all sides of pressure washer including overhead. Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire. WARNING • Operate pressure washer ONLY outdoors. • Keep exhaust gas from entering a confined area through windows, doors, ventilation intakes or other openings. • DO NOT operate pressure washer inside any building or enclosure, even if doors or windows are open. Running engine gives off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting or death. WARNING OPERATION 11 8. Choose spray tip you want to use and insert it into nozzle extension. See “How to Use Spray Tips”. 9. Engage safety latch to spray gun trigger (Figure 12). 10. Move throttle control lever to “High” position, shown on engine as a rabbit (Figure 13). 11. When starting engine, position yourself as recommended in Figure 14 and start engine according to instructions given in engine operator’s manual. How To Stop Pressure Washer 1. Move throttle control lever to “Stop” position. 2. Turn engine off according to instructions given in engine operator’s manual. Figure 13 - Throttle Control Lever Safety Latch Figure 12 — Spray Gun with Safety Latch Engaged Figure 14 - Recommended Starting Position • ALWAYS point gun in safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger, to release pressure and avoid kickback each time, before starting engine. • When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback. • After each starting attempt, where engine fails to run, always point gun in safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release high pressure. • Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray to avoid injury when gun kicks back. Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result. WARNING • DO NOT touch hot surfaces and avoid hot exhaust gases. • Allow equipment to cool before touching. • Keep at least 5 ft. (152 cm) clearance on all sides of pressure washer including overhead. Running engines produce heat.Temperature of muffler and nearby areas can reach or exceed 150°F (65°C). Severe burns can occur on contact. Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire. WARNING OPERATION 12 3. ALWAYS point gun in a safe direction and squeeze spray gun trigger to release retained high water pressure. IMPORTANT: Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when engine is stopped and water is disconnected. 4. Engage safety latch on spray gun when not in use.
