Starting your SIMPSON triplex Plunger Pump Cold Water Professional Gas Pressure Washer involves a few key steps. First, fill the fuel tank with fresh, high-quality, unleaded gasoline that has a pump octane rating of 86 or higher, but be careful not to overfill. Clean up any spilled fuel before starting. Next, check the engine oil level and add oil if necessary, following the instructions in the Engine Owner's Manual. Also, inspect the pump oil level; it should reach the dot in the middle of the sight glass. If it's low, add SIMPSON Premium Pump Crankcase Oil or SAE 15W-40 oil. For detailed instructions, see the Pump section under in your manual. Now, connect your water hose to a water source and turn the water on, making sure the filter screen is in the water inlet of the pump. Attach the high-pressure hose to the pump outlet. Select the appropriate nozzle for your task and insert it into the spray wand. Before starting the engine, turn on the water source to purge air from the hose; shut it off when a steady water stream appears. Start the engine according to your Engine Owner's Manual. Finally, squeeze the trigger on the gun to initiate water flow, and release it to stop. Always adhere to the safety guidelines and precautions detailed in your pressure washer's instruction manual.
