All of our gas engines require fresh gasoline rated at 86 octane or more. Having zero percent ethanol is best, but blends that are up to 10% ethanol are acceptable. Never mix oil into your fuel.

We recommend using only fresh fuel because fuel can grow stale and start breaking down. Old fuel will lose octane and form sediments within it. Stale fuel will cause starting and running problems with your engine and needs to be avoided.

All of our engines use SAE 10W30 motor oil.

The first oil change is done after the first 20 hours of operation. After that, check the oil before every use and change when dirty or after every 100 hours, whichever comes first.

Only use 30W Non-detergent oil. Do not put engine oil into your pump.

PSI is the abbreviation for Pounds per Square Inch. This is the measure of the maximum pressure of the water coming out of the spray tip. It can be viewed as the speed of the water, or the stripping power. This will help determine how powerful the water stream will be to dislodge stains and stubborn dirt.

GPM is the abbreviation for Gallons Per Minute. This is the measure of the volume of water the pump needs to operate, and how much the pump pushes out. It can be viewed as the weight of water, or the rinsing power. This will help determine how fast you can clean a surface.

The performance of a pressure washer is determined by the PSI and GPM ratings. If you multiply the two ratings together it will give you an understanding of its cleaning power. This will help you compare different pressure washers.

Your pressure washer must be supplied enough water to match GPM rating. It is strongly recommended to have an extra GPM going into than needed to account for any water flow fluctuations. The pump will fail quickly if it starves for water.

We recommend using detergent that is specifically designed for pressure washers. It will need to be thin viscosity similar to water.

Remove the spray nozzle and inspect it. If clogged clean it, if damaged replace it. Continued use of a malfunctioning nozzle will lead to pump damage.

No. Never leave your pressure washer running without using it. The cooling system of the pump needs you to spray water at least every thirty seconds to flush the pump and have fresh, cool water run through it.

Yes. Your pressure washer has common fittings in the pressure washer industry. You will find many attachments you can use directly, or with an adapter.

Yes, if you put the tip too close to the paint or moldings the pressure washer can inflict damage. Especially if there is existing damage such as paint or glass chips. Always start at a safe distance and move in closer.

No. Operating in freezing temperatures can damage components of the pressure washer, as well cause problems to the items being sprayed. Never leave your pressure washer in freezing temperatures. Always drain hoses and attachments before winter and use anti-freeze in the pump.

No. Only use a cold-water source for your pressure washer. The pump is cooled by being fed by cold water. If you feed it hot water you can quickly overheat the pump and cause it to fail.
