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.

source capable of supplying water at a flow rate
greater than 7.0 gallons (26.5 l) per minute and no
less than 25 PSI (1.72 BARS) at pressure washer
end of garden hose. DO NOT siphon supply
water.
NOTICE
To get maximum performance of the
POWERflow+ Technology, inlet water flow should be
greater than 7 GPM.
2. Check that high pressure hose is tightly
connected to spray gun and pump. See Assembly
section.
3. Make sure unit is in a level position.
4. Connect garden hose to water inlet on pressure
washer pump.

WARNING POISONOUS GAS HAZARD.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide,
a poisonous gas that could kill you in
minutes. You CANNOT smell it, see it, or
taste it. Even if you do not smell exhaust fumes, you
could still be exposed to carbon monoxide gas.
• Operate this product ONLY outside far away from
windows, doors and vents to reduce the risk of carbon
monoxide gas from accumulating and potentially being
drawn towards occupied spaces.
• Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or
plug-in carbon monoxide alarms with battery back-up
according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Smoke
alarms cannot detect carbon monoxide gas.
• DO NOT run this product inside homes, garages,
basements, crawlspaces, sheds, or other partially-
enclosed spaces even if using fans or opening doors
and windows for ventilation. Carbon monoxide can
quickly build up in these spaces and can linger for hours,
even after this product has shut off.
• ALWAYS place this product downwind and point the
engine exhaust away from occupied spaces.
If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using this
product, get to fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You
may have carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING Exhaust heat/gases could ignite
combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank
causing a fire, resulting in death or serious
injury.
• Keep at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) clearance on all sides of
pressure washer including overhead.
