STEP 1: Check engine oil level. Oil level should be level with the bottom
of the oil fi ller neck. Be sure the machine is level when checking the oil
level. (Refer to the engine's operating manual included with machine.)
We recommend that the oil be changed after the fi rst 5 hours of use, then
once every 50 hours. Note: Improper oil levels will cause low oil sensor
to shut off engine. IMPORTANT! Do not run engine with high or low
oil levels as this will cause engine damage. STEP 2: Remove shipping cap
and install oil dipstick. Check
pump oil level by using dipstick or
observe oil level in oil window (if
equipped). Use 40 wt. non deter-
gent oil. The Legacy Axial Pump
does not require maintenance. At-
temping to check oil on this pump
may damage it and will void your
pump warranty.
STEP 4: Connect garden hose
to the cold water source and turn
water on completely. Never use
hot water.
STEP 6: Rotate the fuel shut-off valve to the "On"
position. Slide the fuel valve lever to the "ON" position.
When the engine is not in use, leave the fuel valve in
the "OFF" position.
STEP 5: Trigger the spray gun to
eliminate trapped air then wait for
a steady fl ow of water to emerge
from the spray nozzle.
