Setup and Installation

This section outlines the general steps for installing the pressure water pump. Always refer to your Craftsman CMXGWFN061214 Pressure Washer's original service manual for detailed, model-specific instructions and safety warnings.

1. Prepare the Pressure Washer:
   • Ensure the pressure washer engine is off and completely cooled.
   • Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
   • Drain any remaining water from the old pump and hoses.
2. Remove the Old Pump:
   • Disconnect all hoses (water inlet, high-pressure outlet) from the old pump.
   • Unbolt the old pump from the engine's mounting flange. Note the orientation and any spacers or washers.
   • Carefully pull the old pump off the engine shaft.
3. Inspect the Engine Shaft:
   • Clean the engine shaft thoroughly, removing any rust or debris.
   • Apply a thin layer of anti-seize lubricant to the shaft to facilitate installation and future removal.
4. Install the New Pump:
   • Align the keyway on the new pump with the key on the engine shaft.
   • Carefully slide the new pump onto the engine shaft until it seats firmly against the mounting flange. Do not force it.
   • Secure the pump to the engine using the appropriate bolts and washers. Tighten bolts evenly and to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications (refer to your pressure washer manual).
5. Connect Hoses:
   • Connect the water inlet hose to the pump's inlet port. Ensure a tight, leak-free connection.
   • Connect the high-pressure hose to the pump's outlet port.
6. Prime the Pump:
   • Turn on the water supply to the pump.
   • Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the pump and out the gun, purging air from the system. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges without air bubbles.
7. Final Check:
   • Inspect all connections for leaks.
   • Reconnect the spark plug wire.
