What should you do before operating the machine?
Perform a pre-start maintenance inspection on all applicable systems prior to operating the machine. This is essential for safe, effective, and efficient operation.
What should you check on the pump before starting?
Check the oil level. Level the pressure washer. Be sure the oil level in the pump is correct on the dip stick. If the level is low, add the correct oil to the proper level. USE ONLY SAE 30 W NON-DETERGENT OIL OR HYDRAULIC 68. DO NOT OVER FILL.
What should you visually inspect?
Visually inspect all electrical components to assure they are in good condition, showing no signs of exposure, breakage, or splicing. Visually inspect all hoses, nozzles, and guns to assure they are in good condition. If replacements are necessary they must be rated to withstand the machine’s operating pressure and temperatures.
How do you attach the high-pressure hose?
Attach the high-pressure hose to the water outlet quick connector. Attach the other end of the high-pressure hose (with quick coupler) to the spray gun. Ensure that quick disconnect connections are tightly locked together. Apply a sharp pull on the hose to confirm they are secured.
How do you attach a wand nozzle?
Attach the wand nozzle specific to task requirements (i.e., chemical or pressure wash). [Quick Coupling Operation – Pull back sleeve end and insert male end into nozzle quick coupler, release sleeve and confirm connection by pulling on nozzle].
How do you attach a water source?
Attach the water source to the water inlet located on the pump. The water source must be attached with a good quality standard garden type hose (1/2” minimum is required). Connect the male fitting into the female pump inlet fitting. Make sure that the inlet screen/filter is intact and fitted correctly. Turn on the water source.
What water supply is required?
Water must be in sufficient supply, and pressure must be between 20 – 60 PSI to ensure proper and safe operation. Specific attention should be given if using a well water supply.
What should you do after connecting the water source?
Ensure water is flowing from the end nozzle with the trigger gun pulled. Deplete the system of all air.
How do you start the electric motor?
Turn the PUMP switch to ‘ON’. The PUMP switch is located on the frame beside the motor, or for auto stop/start systems, the PUMP switch is located on the electrical box.
How do you adjust the pressure?
The pressure regulator (unloader) is located on the pump. It controls the pressure being generated by the pressure washer. This regulator may be adjusted to the desired pressure by turning the adjustment knob. Turning the adjustment knob clockwise will increase the pressure. NEVER OPERATE SYSTEM AT A HIGHER PSI THAN THE MAXIMUM RATING. Pressure may be reduced for lighter use by turning the Pressure Regulator/Unloader counterclockwise.
What happens if you continue turning the unloader clockwise after reaching the maximum pressure?
If continuing to turn the unloader clockwise does not increase the pressure, then this implies the maximum has been reached for the system. Any further turning of the unloader will cause the pressure to spike when the wand trigger is released, resulting in possible damage to the machine. To avoid this effect, loosen the unloader (counter-clockwise) until the pressure just starts to drop (see pump head pressure gauge) and until it no longer exceeds the maximum pressure rating for the machine.
How do you start the cleaning operation?
Pull the trigger on the pressure wand assembly to start cleaning. To stop the pressurized water, release the trigger. DO NOT LEAVE UNIT RUNNING WHEN NOT IN USE.
How do you stop the operation?
Turn the PUMP switch to ‘OFF’. Squeeze and release the trigger after shutting off to relieve the system of pressure.
What should you do prior to storage?
Inspect the pressure washer for any damage or required maintenance. If your machine is to be exposed to cold weather, please refer to the winter pump instructions found in this manual. If possible, do not allow the unit to remain outside in the elements.
What can happen if the unit is left running while not in use?
If the unit is left running while not in use, pump damage may occur. Do not leave the unit running while not in use!
What is the standard chemical injection method for direct drive units?
Downstream Chemical Injection is standard for direct drive units. High Pressure Soap is optional for Belt and Flange Driven Units.
What should you ensure when using standard chemical injection?
For standard chemical injection, ensure the black nozzle is properly fitted at the end of the wand. The chemical injector will not function if this nozzle is not fitted. Do not remove the backflow preventer as chemical may flow back into the potable water source.
How do you prepare the chemical?
Select a detergent/chemical that best suits your cleaning task. Prepare the dilution according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The volume of chemical being used may be adjusted at the valve located on the chemical injector. Note: for EK Pumps, the volume is preset and cannot be adjusted.
How do you insert the chemical intake hose?
Insert the intake hose, located on the chemical injector at the pump, into the chemical being used.
How do I prepare the pressure washer for use?
Fit the black nozzle on the standard wand, or for the dual wand, turn adjustment knob on, and adjust for required flow rate. For high pressure soap systems, the black nozzle is not needed; use one of the other wand nozzles.
How do I apply chemical with the pressure washer?
Engage the trigger on the pressure wand assembly. Turn the chemical injector’s nipple to adjust flow. For high pressure soap systems, open the ball valve and engage the trigger. Chemical can now be applied through the pressure wand assembly. It will take 5 – 15 seconds for chemical to travel to the spray nozzle. The volume of chemical being used may be adjusted at the chemical injector.
What is the best way to apply chemicals for cleaning?
Apply chemical from bottom to top, and allow for proper penetration time prior to rinsing. Do not allow chemical to dry. Rinse from bottom to top and then top to bottom.
How do I prepare the pressure washer for winter storage?
All water must be drained or blown (via compressed air) from the system. Connect a short piece of male fitted ½” garden type hose on to the female inlet on the pump. Place the open end of the hose into a wide mouthed container of full strength, winter rated, vehicle windshield washing fluid or Anti-Freeze, rated for minimum -40°C. Connect the pressure wand assembly. Start the pump and engage the trigger on the pressure gun. Operate the system until the fluid runs the same color as the windshield washing fluid. Your machine is now prepared for storage. Disconnect fluid supply, blow out with compressed air, and cap end.
What should I do if my water is hard?
Use a softener on your water system if local water is known to be high in mineral content. The advantages of soft water are very beneficial: prevents scale buildup in heater coil, cleans better with considerably less detergent, prevents streaking on painted surfaces and glass when rinsing.
What are the daily maintenance checks?
Check pump oil for proper level and adjust accordingly. Examine the quality of the oil. Check pump for oil and/or water leaks. Inspect and clean inlet filters.
What are the weekly maintenance checks?
Examine all fittings, components, hoses, connections, and nozzles for damages, loose parts, or leaks and replace accordingly.
When should I change the oil in the pump?
Change the oil in the pump after the first 50 hours and every 500 hours after the initial oil change. Use SAE 30 W Non-Detergent for GP Pumps and Hydraulic 68 for EK Pumps.
What kind of oil do I need to use in the pump?

Check fuel delivery from carburetor to cylinder. Check carburetor float bowl for fuel. Inspect fuel line to carburetor for restrictions or clogging. Unstick float. Unclog needle valve. Replace fuel pump.
What should you do if there is no flow?
Make sure the pump is operating. Check drive belts and couplings, make necessary adjustments. Check trigger gun, repair or replace. Ensure water supply is not restricted and hoses are in good repair and not kinked. Check spray nozzle, repair or replace. Check inlet filter, repair or replace. Manually dislodge and inspect for problems if float valve is stuck in the “UP” position. Remove and check for proper action of the faulty unloader valve, repair or replace.
What should you do if there is low pressure and adequate flow?
Nozzle should be properly sized for the system. Replace nozzle when it shows signs of internal erosion. Clean valves and check o-rings for pits and cracks. Adjust pressure so the water flows through properly. Adjust unloader to proper level. Use a new pressure gauge on a quick connect at outlet to check system pressure and replace if gauge is faulty. If low pressure persists, pump packings may need replaced.
What should you do if there is low pressure and low flow?
If the unit has volume adjustment, it may need readjustment. Look for leaks on the discharge side of the system. Remove the injector and retest the system. If the flow is restored, replace the injector. If belts do not have proper deflection, replace them. Check engine throttle and see that the motor is rated for the same speed as the pump. Inspect coupling and repair or replace. Check the start or throttle-back valve for proper operation. Ensure that the motor or engine is working properly. The piston assembly may be stuck or fouled.
What should you do if there is low pressure, low flow and the unit bogs?
Build up can restrict flow. If water is not flowing freely, flush with garden hose to isolate the clog or restriction. A distorted spray pattern can indicate a clogged nozzle. Ensure nozzle is proper size for the system. Correct any kinks or restrictions. Replace crushed hoses. Debris can lodge in the discharge side of the system (valves, fittings, injectors, filters). Flushing with water may correct it.
What should you do if there is excessive pressure?
Nozzle must be properly sized for the rated flow and pressure. Reset unloader or pressure relief if nozzle size is changed. Check the pressure gauge using a properly calibrated pressure gauge on quick connects at the equipment outlet. Adjust to the proper pressure using pressure gauge. Check the unloader action. If it is not working properly, it may need repaired or replaced.
What should you do if the pump chatters, cavitates, or vibrates?
Inspect places where air can enter the system, i.e. fittings, hose, connections etc. If the chemical valve is on, ensure that the chemical line is fully submerged in the chemical. All inlet connections should be snug and not kinked to reduce the chances of pump starvation. Water supply to the system must meet or exceed the rated flow (GPM) on the serial number plate. Faucet must be completely opened or water above the tank outlet in a gravity fed system. If float valve is stuck in the up position, water cannot enter the float tank. Unstick valve if possible of replace if necessary. Correct excessive turbulence. Regularly clean the inlet and inlet strainer to keep debris from entering the float tank. Inlet temperature should not exceed 140F – 160F range.
What should you do if the inlet line vibrates?
Inspect places where air can enter the system, i.e.; fittings, hose, connections etc. If there is no float tank and the outlet line does no vibrate, the inlet check valve may be clogged. Remove debris. Check o-rings under valves.
What should you do if the outlet line vibrates?
Inspect places where air can enter the system, i.e.; fittings, hose, connections etc. If there is no float tank and the outlet line does no vibrate, the inlet check valve may be clogged. Remove debris. If they show signs of ware or damage, replace them.
What should you do if both the inlet and outlet lines vibrate?
Look for the source of debris in the inlet and discharge check valves and remove.
What should you do if there is very low or no flow?
Isolate the flow problem. If it occurs before the unloader discharge point, check the piston assembly to see if it is fouled or stuck in bypass mode.
What should you do if the unloader will not unload?
Take bottom nut off unloader, identify ball, spring and seat. Clean out any debris and reassemble. Check for leaks and repair.
What should you do if the unloader cycles with the system under pressure?
Any variation in flow form what the orifice is sized can cause cycling. System must produce the rated flow constantly. A nozzle that is too small can cause the flow to be reduced. A distorted spray pattern indicates a clogged nozzle. The systems rated output should indicate the proper sized orifice for your system. Check the orifice for clogs and clear out any debris. If the system has a Venturi injector downstream of the unloader, check the orifice for clogs. Scale buildup can restrict flow. Check; controls, valves, switches, trigger gun, and lance. Descale as necessary and begin preventive maintenance program for scale prevention. Check inlet water supply for excessive pressure.
What should you do if the unloader cycles with the system in bypass?
Check unloader bypass port to see if a flow restrictor is properly installed. Install one if none is present. Repair or replace. Remove the accumulator from the system.
What should you do if the unloader (pressure) produces smooth flow and low volume?
Adjust the unloader using the pressure gauge for the correct pressure. A distorted spray pattern indicates a clogged nozzle. A small nozzle causes a reduced flow and cycling may result. If the system has a Venturi injector downstream of the unloader, check the orifice for clogs.
What should you do if the unloader (flow) produces smooth flow and low volume?
Adjust unloader and regulator until proper pressure is achieved. If unloader is sticking, repair or replace as necessary. Downstream restrictions can cause a reduction in flow. Check; controls, valves, switches, trigger gun, and lance. Descale as necessary and begin preventive maintenance program for scale prevention.
What should you do if the unloader (pressure) produces low flow and normal pressure?
If the unloader is diverting flow to bypass it may be adjusted too low, readjust as necessary. Ensure the proper nozzle is installed on the system. The number of hours of usage can give you a clue to the extent of the ware. If in doubt, change. Check pump seals and packings and tighten drive belts.
What should you do if the unloader (flow) produces low flow and normal pressure?
If the unloader is diverting flow to bypass, readjust using the pressure gauge. Ensure the proper sized nozzle is being used.
What should you do if the unloader (pressure) leaks from main spring or adjusting bolt?
Check O-rings for ware or damage and replace as necessary.
What should you do if the unloader (flow) pressure increases when the trigger is released?
Check unloader shaft for proper action. Unstick piston and shaft or replace unloader. Ensure that unloader bypass port is not clogged. If tension is incorrect, adjust or replace as necessary.
What should you do if the unloader (flow) leaks water around adjusting bolt?
Check O-rings for ware or damage and replace as necessary.
What should you do if there is a leak from the inlet garden hose?
Ensure the washer is present and in good condition.
What should you do if there is a leak from the low pressure (inlet) line fittings?
Low pressure line should be properly sealed on barb and tightly clamped.
What should you do if there is a leak from the float tank?
If float is not floating above water, check the float to see if it has filled up with water. If necessary, drain and seal.
What should you do if there is a leak from the pressure fittings?
Usually metal to metal fittings should be taped with Teflon tape or lock tight to provide a tight seal.
What should you do if there is a leak from the quick connects?
If quick connect o-ring shows wear or damage, replace it.
What should you do if there is a leak from the pump?
If the seal leak is detected under the pump manifold, packing may be worn and in need of replacement.
What should you do if there is a leak from the trigger gun?
If o-rings show wear or damage, they may need replaced. Physical damage may not be apparent, but unseen warping from freezing or extreme pressure can still cause leakage.
What should you do if there is a leak from the nozzle?
If a weep gun has been installed, check the gun valve seat to ensure it is functioning properly. Inspect trigger gun valve assembly for damage or ware to ball or seat. Lodged debris can stop valve from closing. Repair with kit or replace.
What should you do if there is a leak from the unloader?
If quick connect o-ring shows wear, damage or improper seating.
What should you do if there is a leak from the variable pressure lance?
Inspect o-rings for ware or damage and replace as necessary.
What should you do if there is a leak from the pressure relief valve?
See pressure and flow diagnostics to find the cause of the excessive pressure and correct it. Spray pattern will be distorted if nozzle is clogged, clean out. If trigger gun valve action is not correct, repair or replace. If water spurts from valve when trigger is released, check unloader adjustment. Pressure spike should be below the level where pressure relief valve is activated. Inspect ball and seal for damage and adjust as necessary. Adjust valve properly.
What should you do if there is no nozzle flow from the nozzle when the trigger is depressed?
If water flows through discharge hose without gun, check trigger gun valve piston rod and replace if necessary. Inspect to assure insert is in place. Check nozzle or spray accessory for blockage and clear it.
What should you do if there is excessive pressure when the trigger gun is released?
After unloader increases pressure to a maximum, further adjustment will only increase the pressure spikes. Re-adjust.
What should you do if the flow is not stopping when the trigger gun is released?
If trigger action is too loose, return spring may need replaced. Debris in gun valve can stop piston return. Clear debris.
What should you do if the trigger action sticks?
It may be possible to loosen plug slightly without leakage but it will likely need replaced.
What should you do if the trigger gun leaks?
Check trigger gun o-rings for ware or damage and replace. Physical damage may not be apparent but unseen warping from freezing or sever overpressure may still cause leaking.
What should you do if there is no chemical?
Open the chemical valve. If it chatters with no chemical delivery, air is being drawn from the upstream side of the pump. Check fittings, connections and ensure the inlet line is fully submerged into the chemical jug. Inspect and clean as necessary. Ensure that the ball is not stuck or clogged. Chemical line kinking or binding prevents chemical delivery. An overly long chemical line can prevent the pump from drawing chemical into the system. Try installing a shorter line. Verify chemical strength. If no adjuster exists it may need low pressure spray nozzle installed on the lance. If not properly sized for the systems rated output, chemical delivery problems will result. Check serial plate for specs.
What should you do if there is excessive chemical?
To properly adjust, a chemical flow meter may be used to precisely measure chemical flow. Verify chemical strength.
What should you do if the spray pattern is irregular?
Spray pattern will be distorted if nozzle is clogged.
What should you do if the volume is proper but the pressure is low?
Ensure that the nozzle is sized properly sized for the system. A loss of pressure may result form gradual nozzle wear. Replace a nozzle of correct size.
What should you do if the pressure is proper but the volume is low?
Spray pattern will be distorted if nozzle is clogged. Check nozzle for clogging if the unit has a pressure unloader.
What should you do if there is no voltage to the solenoid?
A multimeter can be used to check continuity through controls and pinpoint the problem areas.
What should you do if the solenoid coil does not energize?
Electrical connections to solenoid valve coil should be tight and not corroded. Check to see if fuel solenoid will energize when the proper voltage is applied. Solenoid may need replacing. If coil energizes when proper voltage is applied, check boiler controls.
What should you do if the solenoid coil energizes?
If solenoid valve coil energizes when the cleaner is operating in hot water the problem is elsewhere. Check the air/fuel delivery.
What should you do if the pressure switch activates when pressure is reached but the boiler is not firing?
A multimeter can indicate if the proper voltage flows through the boiler side of the switch. If not the switch may not need replaced. Switch may be improperly wired for its function. If wiring is proper and still no current flow when activated, switch may need replacement.
What should you do if the pressure switch does not activate?
Check pressure plunger to see if it will travel freely. If not, the passage may need cleared. Check to see if the plunger is traveling far enough to depress the microswitch. Adjust if necessary.
What should you do if the pressure switch is activated manually?
If switch activates manually but boiler does not fire, current may not be flowing through. The switch may need replacing. Microswitch may need readjustment so plunger can trip in. Replace switch with another one. If switch works manually and current is flowing properly, the problem is elsewhere. Try other boiler diagnostics.
What should you do if the vacuum switch is activated manually?
Replace switch if improper diaphragm movement is detected. Correct problems related to inadequate water flow. Replace vacuum switch if diaphragm shows an air leak or hole.
What should you do if the vacuum switch shows continuity when activated?
If vacuum switch works properly, continue with other boiler control diagnostics.
What should you do if the vacuum switch does not show continuity when activated?
Replace switch with another one.
What should you do if the reed switch activates when tested with external magnet?
If magnet does not move freely within its housing, remove debris to unstick it. To adjust it for the flow the system is producing, loosen the reed switch and move it in its. If reed switch activated the boiler when tested with a hand held magnet, the internal magnet may.
What should you do if the reed switch does not activate when tested with external magnet?
If reed switch does not activated the boiler when tested with a hand held magnet, the reed switch may need replacement.
What should you do if the thermostat is set improperly?
Set thermostat properly and ensure connections are not loose or corroded.
What should you do if the boiler fires when thermostat is jumped, but will not fire with the thermostat in the circuit?
Replace thermostat.
What should you do if the boiler will not fire when the thermostat is jumped?
Continue with boiler control diagnostics. If the boiler still does not fire, the thermostat may need replaced.
What should you do if there is electrical continuity through the high temperature limit switch?
Check connections to high temperature limit switch to ensure that they are not loose or corroded. If there is continuity through the switch but the boiler still does not fire, there is a problem elsewhere in the system. Continue with boiler control diagnostics.
What should you do if there is no continuity through the high temperature limit switch?
Replace switch.
What should you do if the fuel level is low?
Add fuel and retest.
What should you do if the fuel level is proper?
