12 4. ASSEMBLY Hose connections are supplied. Hoses ARE NOT supplied as standard with pump. Your pressure washer requires some assembly and is ready for use after it has been properly serviced with the recommended oil and fuel. If you have any problems with the assembly of your pressure washer, please call the pressure washer help line at If calling for assistance, please have the model and serial number available Unpack Connect Suction Hose to Pump Slide hose clamp (A) over end of hose (B). Slide suction hose onto hose barb (C). Tighten hose clamp securely to the hose Attach Suction Hose to Strainer basket Slide hose clamp over hose. Attach open end of suction hose to strainer hose barb. Tighten hose clamp securely Insert Connect Discharge Hose (Optional) If desired, use a commercially available hose. DO NOT use a hose with an inside diameter smaller than the pump s discharge port size Slide barb cuff over hose barb. Insert rubber seal into end of barb cuff as shown earlier Screw hose barb assembly onto pump in clockwise rotation until hose barb assembly is tightened securely. Page 12 Rev 2

13 Slide hose clamp over end of discharge hose. Slide discharge hose onto hose barb. Tighten hose clamp securely You may choose to assemble the discharge and suction hose as shown above or by using cam lock connections. Cam locks are another commonly used water pump connection. 5. OPERATION What is head? Head refers to the height of a column of water that can be delivered by the discharge of the pump Suction Head is the vertical distance between the centre of the pump and the surface of the liquid on the suction side of the pump. May also be referred to as suction lift. The atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi at sea level limits suction head lift to less than approximately 26 feet for any pump Discharge Head is the vertical distance between the pump s discharge port and the point of discharge, which is the liquid surface if the hose is submerged or pumping into the bottom of a tank Total Head is the sum of the suction head value plus the discharge head value As water pumping height increases, pump output decreases. The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses can also significantly affect pump output It is important for the suction operation to be the shorter part of the total pumping action. This will decrease the priming time and improve pump performance by increasing the discharge head Suction head is a maximum of 25 feet and discharge head should be a maximum of 81 feet. Total head cannot be more than 106 feet as shown on next page. Page 13 Rev 2

14 5.2. Pump positioning For best pump performance, locate the pump on a flat, level surface as close as possible (but avoiding soft edges) to the water to be pumped Secure water pump to prevent it tipping over. Use hoses that are no longer than necessary IMPORTANT - Direct open end of discharge hose away from property, electrical supply sources and other equipment that you do not want to get wet. Fuel and its vapours are extremely flammable and explosive. Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death This water pump is not for use in mobile equipment or marine applications DO NOT tip engine or equipment at angle which causes fuel to spill Secure water pump. Loads from hoses may cause tip over Priming the pump. The Improper treatment of water pump can damage it and shorten its life Be sure chamber is filled with water before starting the engine. NEVER run pump without priming Remove priming plug from top of pump Fill pump with clean, clear water up to top of discharge outlet Replace priming plug. Page 14 Rev 2

15 5.4. Locating strainer basket into water source. The Improper treatment of water pump can damage it and shorten its life. NEVER operate pump without strainer connected to end of suction hose. Keep strainer out of sand or silt, place in bucket or on stones. DO NOT let pump run dry or damage to seals may result Place strainer basket into water to be pumped, basket must be fully immersed in water. 6. STARTING/STOPPING Starter cord kickback (rapid retraction) can result in bodily injury. Kickback will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises, or sprains could be a result of incorrect use When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback Starting the Water Pump Use the following start instructions: Make sure unit is on a flat, level surface and pump chamber is primed Turn fuel valve (1) to ON position. The fuel valve handle will be vertical (pointing toward the ground) Push on/off switch (2) to ON position Move engine speed lever (3) to Fast position. Page 15 Rev 2

16 Move choke lever (4) to ON position Grasp recoil handle and pull slowly until slight resistance is felt. Then pull handle rapidly to overcome compression, prevent kickback and start engine. Important: If excessive fuel is present in the air/fuel mixture causing a flooded condition, move choke lever to Run position and pull handle repeatedly until engine starts Move choke lever to Run position adjusting it to let engine run smoothly Important: It may take a few minutes for water pump to begin pumping water Pump output is controlled by adjusting engine speed. Moving the engine speed lever in the Fast direction will increase pump output, and moving the engine speed lever in the Slow direction will decrease pump output. Contact with muffler/exhaust area can result in serious burns. Exhaust heat/gases can ignite combustibles, structures or damage fuel tank causing a fire DO NOT touch hot parts and AVOID hot exhaust gases Allow equipment to cool before touching Keep at least 6 feet (2.0 m) of clearance on all sides of water pump including overhead Stopping the Water Pump. Backfire, fire or engine damage could occur. DO NOT stop engine by moving choke control to Choke position Move engine speed lever to Slow position Push on/off switch to OFF position Turn fuel valve to OFF position Drain and Flush Water Pump.
