2. Carefully remove the carbon deposits from the spark

arrestor screen with a wire brush. The spark arrestor must be free of breaks and tears. Replace the spark arrestor if damaged. STORAGE Proper storage preparation is required for trouble-free operation and pressure washer longevity. NOTICE Gasoline stored for as little as 30 days can deteriorate, causing gum, varnish, and corrosive buildup in fuel lines, fuel passages, and the engine. This corrosive buildup restricts the ow of fuel, which can prevent the engine from starting after a prolonged storage period. The use of fuel stabilizer signicantly increases the storage life of gasoline. Full-time use of fuel stabilizer is recommended. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. Never store a pressure washer with fuel in the tank indoors or in a poorly ventilated area where the fumes can come in contact with an ignition source such as a pilot light of a stove, water heater, clothes dryer, or any other gas appliance, or a spark from an electric appliance.

STORAGE TIME RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE

Less than 1 month No service required. 2 to 6 months Fill with fresh gasoline and add gasoline stabilizer. Drain the carburetor oat bowl. 6 months or longer Drain the fuel tank and carburetor oat bowl.18 | Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment, LLC MAINTENANCE

STORED FOR LESS THAN 30 DAYS

• Allow the pressure washer to cool a minimum of 30 minutes before storage.

• Wipe the pressure washer with a moist cloth. Clean any debris from the mufer cooling vents.

• Store the pressure washer in a well-ventilated, clean, dry location away from sparks, open ames, pilot lights, heat, and other sources of ignition such as areas with a spark-producing electric motor or where power tools are operated. Store in an area out of direct sunlight.

• Do not store the pressure washer or gasoline near furnaces, water heaters, or any other appliances that produce heat or have automatic ignitions.

STORED FOR OVER 30 DAYS

Even properly stabilized fuel can leave residue and cause corrosion if left long term. If storing the pressure washer for two to six months, drain the oat bowl to prevent gum and varnish buildup in the carburetor. WINTER STORAGE Make sure the pressure washer hose is free of all water before storing for winter. In order to prevent corrosion and keep the water pump from freezing you will need to add RV (non-toxic) antifreeze or similar pump-protection specically made for pressure washers. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use.

DRAINING THE FLOAT BOWL

1. Turn the fuel tank valve to the OFF position.

2. Locate the drain screw on the bottom of the carburetor

3. Place an appropriate gasoline container under the drain

screw to catch the drained fuel.

4. Loosen the oat bowl drain screw and allow the fuel to

drain. Tighten the oat bowl drain screw.

DRAINING THE FUEL TANK

If storing the pressure washer for longer than six months, drain the fuel tank to prevent fuel separation, deterioration, and deposits in the fuel system.

1. Drain the oat bowl.

2. Unscrew the fuel tank cap. Remove the fuel screen lter

by slightly compressing it while removing it from the tank.

3. Using a commercially available gasoline hand pump

(not included), siphon the gasoline from the fuel tank into an approved gasoline container. DO NOT use an electric pump.

4. Reinstall the fuel screen lter and the fuel tank cap.

5. Push the battery switch to the OFF position.

6. Disconnect the battery quick-connect plugs.

7. Remove the spark plug.

8. Put a teaspoon of engine oil into the cylinder and pull the

recoil handle until resistance is felt. At this position the piston is coming up on its compression stroke and both valves are closed. Storing the engine in this position will help prevent internal corrosion. Return the recoil handle gently.

9. Reinstall the spark plug. Leave the spark plug boot

disconnected to prevent accidental starting. VALVE CLEARANCE NOTICE Checking and adjusting valve clearance must be done when the engine is cold.

1. Remove the rocker arm cover and carefully remove

the gasket. If the gasket is torn or damaged, it must be replaced.

2. Remove the spark plug so the engine can be rotated

3. Rotate the engine to top dead center (TDC) by pulling

the recoil handle slowly. Looking through the spark plug hole, the piston should be at the top (both valves are closed).

4. Both the rocker arms should be loose at TDC on the

compression stroke. If they are not, rotate the engine 360°.

5. Insert a feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the

7. Turn the rocker arm pivot to obtain the specied

clearance. Hold the rocker arm pivot and re-tighten the pivot adjusting nut to the specied torque. Torque: 106 inch-pound (12 N•m)

8. Perform this procedure for the other valve.

9. Install the gasket, rocker arm cover, and spark plug.20 | Westinghouse Outdoor Power Equipment, LLC
