TIP #3
Find a Stable Surface
Make sure the unit is on a stable surface and the cleaning area has adequate slopes and drainage to prevent puddles.
TIP #10
Rinsing Vertical Surfaces
When rinsing vertical surfaces, start at the top and work downward. Gravity will help the clean water flush away dirt, debris, and detergent residue, in addition to preventing streaks.
TIP #11
Cleaning Out of Reach Surfaces
To clean out of reach surfaces, such as the second story of a house, use a narrow spray pattern to propel the water stream up to the surface.

Step 3: Changing pump oil. Fill the water pump with fresh oil, following the directions in the owner’s manual. Note: Premeasured bottles of water pump oil are available for some models. Reinstall the oil cap and tighten firmly, then wipe up any excess oil around the cap and set the pressure washer in the upright position. Clean up any spilled oil, and dispose of used oil and soiled rags in accordance with local environmental statutes. Step 1Step 2Step 3
