WORK AREA  
1.  
2.  
Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas  
invite accidents.  
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the  
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks  
which may ignite flammables.  
3.  
Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool.  
Distractions can cause you to lose control. Protect others in the work area from  
debris such as chips and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.  
ELECTRICAL SAFETY  
1.  
Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and  
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the  
grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter  
plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether  
the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or  
break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away  
from the user.  
2.  
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators,  
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your  
body is grounded.  
3.  
4.  
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power  
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.  
Do not abuse the Power Cord. Never use the Power Cord to carry the tools  
or pull the Plug from an outlet. Keep the Power Cord away from heat, oil,  
sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged Power Cords immedi-  
ately. Damaged Power Cords increase the risk of electric shock.  
5.  
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord  
marked “W-A” or “W”. These extension cords are rated for outdoor use, and  
reduce the risk of electric shock.

PERSONAL SAFETY  
1.  
Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, and use common sense when oper-  
ating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while tired or under the influ-  
ence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operat-  
ing power tools may result in serious personal injury.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
5.  
6.  
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair.  
Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose  
clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.  
Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the Power Switch is off before plugging  
in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the Power Switch/Trigger, or plugging  
in power tools with the Power Switch on, invites accidents.  
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the power tool on. A  
wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result  
in personal injury.  
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper  
footing and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected  
situations.  
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Non-skid safety shoes,  
hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Always  
wear ANSI approved safety impact goggles and thick rubber boots during use  
and maintenance.  
TOOL USE AND CARE  
1.  
2.  
3.  
Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to  
a stable platform. Holding the work by hand is unstable and may lead to loss of  
control. Only work on a workpiece that is properly secured. Holding any object  
while it is pressure washed can cause serious personal injury by the high pres-  
sure stream.  
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct  
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Do not use  
small equipment, tools, or attachments to do the work of larger industrial equip-  
ment, tools, or attachments. Do not use this product for a purpose for which it was  
not intended.  
Do not use the power tool if the Power Switch does not turn it on or off. Any  
tool that cannot be controlled with the Power Switch is dangerous and must be  
replaced.

adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive  
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.  
5.  
6.  
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools  
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.  
Maintain tools with care. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean. Properly  
maintained tools are easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged  
tools “Do not use” until repaired.  
7.  
8.  
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and  
any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have  
the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-  
tained tools.  
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your  
model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous  
when used on another tool.

GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS  
1.  
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong  
grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If  
the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low  
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of  
electric shock. (See Figure A.)  
2.  
3.  
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the  
cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the  
only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached  
to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)  
Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and  
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet  
should look like that in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)  
3-PRONG PLUG  
ELECTRICAL OUTLET  
FIGURE A  
EXTENSION CORDS  
1.  
2.  
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord.  
As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge  
extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a  
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage.  
(See Figure B, next page.)  
3.  
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.  
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.  
(See Figure B.)  
4.  
5.  
When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure  
each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. (See Figure B.)  
If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate  
amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.  
(See Figure B.)

6.  
7.  
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with the suffix  
“W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.  
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition.  
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified  
electrician before using it.  
8.  
9.  
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet  
areas.  
If an extension cord is needed, only use a cord with the proper gauge wire.

PRODUCT FEATURES AND PRECAUTIONS  
NOTICE: Prior to using the pressure washer for the first time, it is IMPORTANT  
that it has been determined that there is an adequate water supply.  
The Pressure Washer needs TWICE the volume of the stated water  
output (1.7 GPM). This Pressure Washer will need 3.4 GPM to oper-  
ate correctly and efficiently. If the water is supplied by a well, make  
certain that the well produces enough water to keep up with the Pres-  
sure Washer’s water demand.  
FLOW RATE OF THE  
WATER SUPPLY MUST NEVER FALL BELOW 3 GPM. Flow rate  
can be determined by running the water at full pressure (valve com-  
pletely open) for one minute into an empty 5 gallon container, then  
measuring the amount of water in the container.  
CAUTION! If the pump is run without an adequate water supply, the Pres-  
sureWasher will cavitate. Cavitation causes the pump to vibrate  
and operate loudly, and will damage the pump.  
1.  
2.  
3.  
IMPORTANT! Prior to turning on the PressureWasher connect the unit to the  
water supply. Turn on the water and squeeze theTrigger (23A) until water flows  
out of the Wash Gun. This removes air from the system and allows the unit to  
properly perform. Failure to follow this Step will damage the Pump.  
The Pressure Washer features an automatic ON/OFF Micro Switch (27). The  
Motor (33) of the Pressure Washer does not run continuously, but only when the  
Trigger (23A) is squeezed. When spraying water through the unit stops, the Motor  
will automatically shut off.  
The Pressure Washer features a 3-Prong,  
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)  
Power Plug (59). The GFCI Power Plug pro-  
vides additional protection from the risk of  
electrical shock. Make sure theTrigger (23A) is  
released before plugging in. Plug the GFCI  
RESET  
Power Plug into a grounded, 120 volt, electri-  
cal outlet. Press the TEST button and then the  
RED LIGHT  
TEST  
RESET button. The indicator on the Power Plug  
should appear red. If the indicator is not red  
after several tries, have both the Power Plug  
and receptacle inspected by a qualified electri-  
cian. Should replacement of the GFCI Power  
Plug become necessary, only a qualified tech-  
nician should perform the service. Never  
attempt to alter or disable the GFCI Power Plug.

Pre-OperationTips:  
1.  
The optimum angle for spraying water against a surface is 45 degrees. A 90  
degree angle or direct impact of the water onto the surface can cause dirt par-  
ticles to become imbedded in the cleaning surface and debris and high speed  
water to reflect back at the operator.  
2.  
3.  
4.  
The distance between the Nozzle and the cleaning surface directly affects the  
impact force of the water. The closer the Nozzle is to the surface, the stronger the  
impact.  
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time and assist in the  
removal of stains. Detergents work best when applied at low pressure. Only use  
non-corrosive detergents specifically designed for pressure washer use.  
The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying them to a surface and  
giving the chemicals time to breakdown the dirt and grime.

Warning: Be certain to unplug the power plug with dry hands when done. If the  
switch is left on the motor will run with no water, potentially causing damage  
to the electrical circuit and causing the unit to burn up, voiding the warranty.  
To Adjust The Spray Pattern:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
The angle of the spray coming out of the Spray Wand (13A) may be adjusted by  
rotating the Knob (16A). This will vary the spray pattern from approximately a 0  
degree narrow, high impact stream, to a 60 degree wide fan spray.  
(See Figure J, next page.)  
The narrow stream works well to deep clean a concentrated area. This setting  
has a very high impact, providing maximum cleaning power, but can possibly  
damage surfaces. Use caution, as a concentrated pattern can cause damage to  
the surface being pressure washed. (See Figure J.)  
A wide fan pattern distributes the impact of the water over a larger area. This  
pattern allows large areas to be cleaned more quickly. (See Figure J.)

Adjust the Knob (16A) to a wide fan pattern before plugging in or switching on the  
gun. (See Figure J.)  
2.  
3.  
4.  
Place the Nozzle at a 45 degree angle to the cleaning surface.  
Keep the stream moving throughout the cleaning process.  
This PressureWasher can, at different distances, remove dirt from painted  
surfaces, remove paint, or even chip concrete. Always use the proper dis-  
tance for the surface and application. Harbor FreightTools cannot be held  
responsible for any damage caused by misuse of the high pressure stream.  
INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING  
1.  
2.  
WARNING! Make sure the Power Switch of the Pressure Washer is in its  
“OFF” position and that the unit is unplugged from its electrical outlet, and all  
pressure is released, before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning  
procedures. Point the Wash Gun in a safe direction and discharge all remaining  
pressure. Then, disconnect the garden hose from the unit.  
Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Pressure Washer. Check  
for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, damaged electrical  
wiring, damaged High Pressure Hose, damaged accessories, plugged water

inlet/ Filter (18), and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If  
abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further  
use.  
Do not use damaged equipment.  
3.  
To clean, remove excess water from the Pump by tipping the unit on both sides to  
drain any remaining water from the inlet and outlet fittings. Drain the Detergent  
Dispenser and flush with running water. Use only a clean cloth and mild deter-  
gent to clean the body of the Pressure Washer. Do not use solvents. Do not im-  
merse any part of the tool in liquid. Dry off any remaining water on all parts and  
fittings. Then engage the Trigger Safety Lock.  
4.  
5.  
When storing, always completely empty the Pressure Washer of water. Frost will  
damage the Pressure Washer if the unit contains water. Store the Pressure  
Washer indoors in a dry, frost-free room. Minerals in the water can harden inside  
the workings. Flush the unit with automotive antifreeze prior to long-term storage.  
To Clean The Nozzle:  
A clog in the Nozzle (19A) can significantly reduce the amount of water that  
comes out of the Pressure Washer. A clog can also cause the unit to pulsate  
while in use. To clean out the Nozzle:  
A.  
B.  
C.  
Turn off the Pressure Washer, and unplug the unit from its electrical outlet.  
Turn off the cold water supply.  
Release any remaining water pressure in the Pressure Washer by squeez-  
ing the Trigger (23A) in a safe direction. (See Figure H, page 13.)  
D.  
E.  
F.  
Remove the Spray Wand Extension (11A) from the Gun. (See Figure F.)  
Rotate the Knob (16A) to the High Impact Stream setting. (See Figure J.)
