Engine
Refer to the engine instruction manual for location and
operation of other engine controls.
Pump
For best results, pump oil designed specifically for
pressure washers is recommended, as these contain a
rust inhibitor and an anti-foaming agent. If this oil is not E
available, an SAE 30W non-detergent oil may be used.

English
Choke control: Opens and closes carburetor choke valve.
CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by psi. (GPM x PSI = CU)
Fuel valve lever: Opens/closes connection between fuel tank and carburetor.
GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of measure for the flow rate of water.
PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.
kPa (kilopascal): Metric pressure measurement. 1 kilopascal equal 1000 pascals.
Quick-connect spray wand: Allows the user to quickly change out high-pressure nozzles. Refer to Spray Wand Nozzles.
Thermal relief valve: When the temperature inside the pump rises too high the valve will open and release a gush of water in an effort to lower
the temperature inside the pump. The valve will then close.
Water supply: All pressure washers must have a source of water. The minimum requirements for a water supply are 20 psi (138 kPa) and
5 gallons per minute.
