Spray Gun High Pressure Hose Engine Dual Tank Cleaning System MultiAdjustable Spray Wand High Pressure Pump BASIC ELEMENTS OF A PRESSURE WASHER High Pressure Pump (located inside the shroud): Increases the pressure of the water supply.
BASIC ELEMENTS OF ENGINE Refer to the engine manual for location and operation of engine controls. Choke Control: Opens and closes carburetor choke valve Throttle Control Lever: Controls engine speed. Fuel Valve Lever: Opens/closes connection between fuel tank and carburetor. Starter Grip: Pulling starter grip operates recoil starter to crank engine. PRESSURE WASHER TERMINOLOGY PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.
HOW TO USE SPRAY WAND: Your pressure washer is equipped with a multi-adjustable spray wand with both high and low pressure settings. The high pressure setting is for cleaning and rinsing, the low pressure setting is for applying cleaning solutions to surfaces. When using the high pressure setting, DO NOT allow the jetlike spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with any pets or animals. Serious injury can occur.
