INTRODUCTION Dear Customer, Congratulations on your choice to buy a Husqvarna product! Husqvarna is based on a tradition that dates back to 1689, when the Swedish King Charles XI ordered the construction of a factory on the banks of the Husqvarna River, for production of muskets. The location was logical, since waterpower was harnessed from the Husqvarna River to create the water-powered plant.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How do I start my pressure washer? 1. Make sure you have gas and oil in the engine. 2. Turn the water on, then squeeze the trigger on the gun to make sure the water will flow smoothly out of the nozzle or tip. 3. Put the engine throttle control in the “Fast/Start” position. Set the fuel valve to “ON” Set the On/Off switch to “ON” (if applicable). 4. Close the choke. 5. Squeeze and hold the trigger (to relieve any back pressure in the pump) while pulling the starter cord. 6.
SAFETY GUIDELINES Important Safety Instructions • ALWAYS engage the trigger safety latch in the safe position when spraying is stopped even if only for a few moments. • ALWAYS follow detergent manufacturer’s label recommendations for proper use of detergents. ALWAYS protect eyes, skin, and respiratory system from detergent use.
SAFETY GUIDELINES • Use only the nozzle supplied with this machine. • NEVER leave the wand unattended while the machine is running. • NEVER tamper with the engine governor or attempt to alter factory settings. Altering factory settings could damage the unit and will void the warranty. • ALWAYS hold gun and wand firmly when starting and operating the machine. • NEVER allow the unit to run with the trigger released (off) for more than two minutes. Resulting heat buildup will damage the pump.
PRE-OPERATION UNPACKING Remove the equipment and all parts from the carton. The carton should contain the following. • One pressure washer (pump, engine, cart base). • One cart handle assembly. • One spray gun. • One lance. • Two spray tips for Model 5525PW Five spray tips for Models 1340PW, 6027PW and 9032PW • One high pressure hose. • One pack of nuts, bolts, and manuals. • One bottle of engine oil. 2. Connect clear plastic hose to brass barb on pump (See Figure 2).
PRE-OPERATION 4. Connect the high pressure hose to the pump outlet (See Figure 4). 5. Attach the lance with nozzle to the gun (See Figure 5). Figure 5 - Attach lance to gun 6. Install quick connect tip by pulling back on collar and pressing in tip. Release collar, make sure it completely returns to its forward position and tip is secure (See Figure 6). For models 5525PW: Insert spray tips into the rubber tip holder.
PRE-OPERATION TRIGGER SAFETY LATCH In the engaged position, the trigger safety latch prevents the gun from being triggered accidentally. Pull the latch up to engage it (See Figure 9). ALWAYS engage the trigger safety latch when the unit is not in use.
OPERATION 1. Surface Preparation 4. Turn the water supply ON. ALWAYS engage the trigger safety latch when unit is not in use. The following cleaning procedure will help you organize your cleaning task and ensures that you will achieve the best results in the shortest amount of time. Remember to use the spraying / cleaning techniques mentioned in the following section. NEVER run the unit dry. Be sure the water supply is completely turned on before operating the unit.
OPERATION PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT Models 9032PW and 1340PW have a pressure adjustment knob located on the pump (see Figure 10). Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure. Turn the knob counter clockwise to decrease the pressure. DO NOT try and force the knob to turn. The knob may already be at either the lowest or highest setting. If there is not a plastic adjustment knob located on the pump (See Figure 10), then the pressure cannot be adjusted.
OPERATION Spray water against a surface at a 45 degree angle to achieve the most beneficial impact force and to efficiently remove debris. DISTANCE FROM CLEANING SURFACE The distance between the spray nozzle and the cleaning surface is another factor that affects the impact force of the water. The impact force of the water increases as the nozzle is moved closer to the surface. 3.
OPERATION GENERAL CLEANING TIPS 1. Apply the detergent so that it thoroughly covers the cleaning surface. Apply the detergent from bottom to top to prevent the detergent from sliding down and streaking. Wait a couple of minutes for the detergent to break down the dirt and grime. Use a brush to lightly scrub heavily soiled areas. NEVER allow the detergent to dry on the cleaning surface.
OPERATION 3. Disconnect the water supply and high pressure hose from the pump. 4. Allow the engine to cool. 5. Disconnect the spark plug wire and remove the spark plug. 6. Pour 1/2 oz. of engine oil into the spark plug hole. NEVER pull the ! WARNING starter rope on the engine when the spark plug is removed unless the spark plug hole is covered. Fuel vapor from the hole can ignite by a spark.
MAINTENANCE Observe regular maintenance intervals to ensure maximum performance and life from the pressure washer. Refer to the schedule for recommended maintenance. If you operate the pressure washer in dusty conditions, perform maintenance checks more often. ENGINE OIL CHANGING INSTRUCTIONS ! CAUTION Before tipping the engine or equipment to drain oil, drain fuel from the fuel tank. NOTE: Change oil while the engine is cool. 1. Disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug. 2.
MAINTENANCE CHECKING PUMP OIL AND PUMP OIL CHANGING Checking oil level: Most pumps have either a sight glass or a dipstick (or both) to check the pump oil level. The correct oil level is at the center of the sight glass (center of red dot). The sight glass is usually located on the back side of the pump [See Figure 19 (B)]. Changing oil: Remove the oil drain plug located at the backside of the pump [See Figure 19 (C)]. Drain old oil. Replace drain plug.
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Maintenance Schedule Action needed Each use • Check water inlet screen and filter. • Check engine and pump oil levels. Fill as necessary. Cannot check pump oil on the 5525PW. • Check gasoline level. Fill as necessary. After first 5 hours of operation • Change engine break-in oil. Use SAE30 or 10W-30 detergent oil if below 60° F (15.7° C). After first 50 hours of operation • Change pump oil. Cannot check or change pump oil on the 5525PW.
