MAINTENANCE
When performing maintenance, you may be exposed to hot
surfaces, water pressure, or moving parts that can cause
serious injury or death!
Before performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect spark plug wire,
let engine cool and release all water pressure. The engine contains
flammable fuel. DO NOT smoke or work near open flames while performing
maintenance.
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.
