AFTER EACH USE
Water should not remain in the unitfor long periods of
time. Sediments of minerals can deposit on pump
parts and "freeze" pump action. Follow these
procedures after every use:

Rinse tank and run the Pressure Washer with
nozzle in low pressure mode. Flush for one minute
or until the chemical is cleared from the system.
• Shut off the engine and let it cool, then remove all
hoses.

recoil handle about 6 times with the Run/Stop
switch in the '0' or OFF position.This should
remove most ofthe liquid in.the pump.
• Rotate the Dial-A-Cleaner TM selector knob to the
OFF position.
• Coil the high pressure hose and inspect it for
damage. Cuts in the hose or fraying could result in
leaks and loss of pressure. Should any damage be
found, replace the hose. DO NOT attempt to repair
a damaged hose. Replace the hose with the
genuine Craftsman part.
• Drain water from hose and properly hang it on the
wire support provided.

alcohol) intothe hose. Pullthe recoil handle twice.
LONG TERM STORAGE
If you do not plan to use the Pressure Washer for
more than 30 days, you mustprepare the engine for
long term storage.
It is importantto prevent gum deposits from forming in
essentialfuel system parts such as the carburetor, fuel
filter, fuel hose or tank dudng storage. Also,
ex_padencoindicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called
gasohol, ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture
which leads to separation and formation of acids
dudng storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system
of an engine while in storage.
