facturer's recommendations for any and all main-
tenance.
To ensure efficient operation and longer life of your pressure washer, a routine maintenance schedule should be
prepared and followed. If the pressure washer is used in unusual conditions, such as high-temperatures or dusty
conditions, more frequent maintenance checks will be required.
PUMP

lowing illustrations to identify which pump is on
your pressure washer. Refer to the chart for oil
type, oil capacity, and maintenance schedule (if
applicable).
