How do I prime the pressure washer?

Connect the water supply and turn on the water. Point the spray gun away from yourself and turn the pressure washer on to allow water to flow through the system.

Can I use hot water?

The maximum input water temperature is 40°C. Do not use water hotter than this, as it may damage the pump.

How often should I clean the filters?

Clean the inlet filter regularly, especially if you have hard water or a poor water supply. The filter is accessible and can be rinsed with water.

What kind of detergent can I use?

Use detergents specifically designed for pressure washers. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the pump.
