Adding Gasoline To The Fuel Tank - Ryobi RY80940 Série Manuel D'utilisation

ADDING GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK

See Figure 11.
WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and property
damage, handle gasoline with care. Keep away from
ignition sources, handle outdoors only, do not smoke
while adding fuel, and wipe up spills immediately.
When adding gas to the pressure washer, make sure the unit
is sitting on a flat, level surface. If the engine is hot, let the
pressure washer cool before adding gas. ALWAYS fill the
fuel tank outdoors with the machine turned off.
NOTE: This is a 4-cycle engine. DO NOT mix fuel and
lubricant together.
 Mix fuel stabilizer with gasoline according to fuel stabilizer
manufacturer's directions.
 Before removing the fuel cap, clean the area around it.
Remove the fuel cap.
 Insert a clean funnel into the fuel tank then slowly
pour gasoline into the tank. Fill tank to approximately
1-1/2 in. below the top of the tank neck (this allows for
fuel expansion).
 Replace fuel cap and tighten until the cap "clicks".
 Clean up any spills before starting the engine.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE PRESSURE
WASHER
See Figures 12 - 13.
NOTICE:
Do not run the pressure washer pump without water
supply connected and turned on, as this may damage the
high pressure seals and decrease pump life. Completely
unwind the hose from its reel or coil and make sure the
hose is not being restricted by tires, rocks, or any other
objects that may lessen or prevent water flow to the
pressure washer.
Before starting the engine:
 Connect all hoses.
NOTE: Make sure the pressure washer's water intake
screen is in place and unclogged before connecting
garden hose.
 Check all fluids (lubricant and gas).
 Turn on the garden hose then squeeze the trigger to
relieve air pressure; hold the trigger until a steady stream
of water appears.
NOTE: Make sure the faucet is turned on fully and that
there are no kinks or leaks in the hose.
OPERATION
To start the engine:
 Turn the fuel valve to the ON position.
 Pull choke out to the START position.
NOTE: If restarting after a brief stop (i.e., after refueling
or moving), leave the choke lever in the RUN position.
 Put the on/off switch in the ON position.
 Grasp the starter grip and rope and pull slowly until
resistance is felt. Give the starter grip and rope a short,
brisk pull to start the engine.
NOTE: Do not allow the starter grip and rope to snap
back after starting; return it gently to its original place.
 Let engine run for several seconds, then push choke in
to the RUN position.
To stop the engine:
 Put the on/off switch in the OFF position.
 Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
 Shut off the water supply and pull trigger to release water
pressure.
WARNING:
While operating and storing, keep at least 3 feet of
clearance on all sides of this product, including overhead.
Allow a minimum of 30 minutes of "cool down" time
before storage. Keep all body parts, clothing, combustible
materials, and hoses away from the muffler. Heat created
by muffler and exhaust gases could be hot enough to
cause serious burns, ignite combustible objects, and/
or damage high pressure hoses that can result in an
injection injury.
USING THE SPRAY WAND TRIGGER
See Figure 14.
For greater control and safety, keep both hands on the trigger
handle at all times.
 Pull back and hold the trigger to operate the pressure
washer.
 Release the trigger to stop the flow of water through the
nozzle.
To engage the lock out:
 Push up on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
To disengage the lock out:
 Push the lock out down and into its original position.
To use the spray wand, start with the nozzle 1-2 ft. away
from the cleaning surface. Carefully approach the surface
just until the desired level of cleaning is achieved. If the spray
is too close it can damage the cleaning surface.
