3,000 PSI and ꢀ.7 gallons per minute.
THERMAL RELIEF VALVE
FUEL VALVE
The fuel valve must be open to start the engine and should
always be closed before storing the machine.
This pump feature will prevent water temperatures from
reaching harmful levels by releasing a small amount of water
from a rubber hose. Once the water has drained, the thermal
relief valve will reset itself.
FUEL TANK
This fuel tank has a maximum capacity of 3.8 quarts (3.6
liters). Use unleaded automotive gasoline in the engine.
TRIGGER wITH LOCK OUT
Pulling the trigger releases a stream of water for high
pressure cleaning. The lock out provides protection against
unauthorized use.

MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
See Figure 19.
wARNING:
A dirty air filter will cause starting difficulty, loss of
performance, and shorten the life span of the engine. Check
the air filter monthly. If working in dusty soil, clean the
air filter after each refueling. For best performance, replace
the air filter at least once a year.
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
wARNING:
AIr fIlter
COver
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing
dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.

WIre MesH
wARNING:
Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the machine, shut
off engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and discon-
nect spark plug wire and move it away from spark plug.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious
personal injury or property damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Regarding the engine: maintenance, replacement
or repair of the emission control devices and systems may
be performed by any nonroad engine repair establishment
or individual.
Fig. 19
To clean the air filter:
Remove the cover.
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
Lift the edge of the air filter carefully and pull it out.
Wash the air filter with warm, soapy water.
Rinse and squeeze to dry.
Put small amount of 30 wt. motor oil on the filter sponge.
Squeeze out the excess oil then reinstall the air filter.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is seated properly inside the
cover. Installing the filter incorrectly will allow dirt to enter
the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
Reinstall the cover.
wARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
OIl CAP/DIP stICK
Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be
repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should
be replaced at an authorized service center.
Before running the engine, perform the following
pre-operation steps:
Check that all bolts, nuts, etc., are securely tightened.
Make sure the air filter is clea .
Check both the e gi e oil level a d the fuel ta k level;
refill as needed.

CHANGING THE OIL
See Figure 20.

Remove the oil drain plug and drain the old oil.
NOTE: Drain the oil while the engine is still warm but not
hot. Warm oil will drain quickly and more completely.

Replace the oil drain plug.
Fig. ꢀ1
Replace the oil with new, clean oil. This engine will hold
ꢀ0 oz. or .6 liters of oil (10W-30).
NOTE: Consult hazardous waste management guidelines in
your area for the proper way to dispose of used fuel.
CHECKING A FOULED SPARK PLUG
See Figure 21.
Clean carbon deposits off the spark plug electrode using
a plug cleaner or wire brush.
Check electrode gap. The gap should be .6 mm - .7 mm.
Adjust the gap, if necessary, by carefully bending the side
electrode.

AIR INDEX
To show compliance with California emission regulations, a hangtag has been provided displaying the Air Index level and durability

The Air Index level defines how clean an engine’s exhaust is over a period of time. A bar graph scaled from “0” (most clean) to “10”
(least clean) is used to show an engine’s Air Index level. A lower Air Index level represents cleaner exhaust from an engine. The
period of time (in hours) that the Air Index level is measured is known as the durability period. Depending on the size of the engine,
a selection of time periods can be used to measure the Air Index level (see below).
