This image illustrates how to identify the correct engine orientation (horizontal vs. vertical), measure the shaft size (3/4", 1", 7/8"), and match the engine horsepower to ensure compatibility with the replacement pump.

This diagram provides precise measurements for the 3/4-inch shaft, including depth and key width, crucial for proper fitment.
3. Pump Installation Steps
Follow these steps to install the replacement pump:
- Remove the four bolts and detach the old pump from the engine.
- Insert the shaft key into the keyway and apply the provided anti-seize to the engine shaft key.
- Align the keyways and carefully slide the new pump onto the engine.
- Secure the pump with the four bolts, tightening them evenly.

This image provides a visual, step-by-step guide for installing the pressure washer pump, showing the removal of bolts, application of anti-seize, alignment, and securing of the new pump.

Operation
1. Adjustable Pressure Control
The pump features an upgraded unloader for easy pressure adjustment without tools. Simply twist the knob by hand:
- Turn counterclockwise to reduce pressure for lighter tasks like washing vehicles.
- Turn clockwise to increase pressure for tougher jobs such as cleaning driveways.

This image illustrates the hand-adjustable unloader, allowing users to easily increase or decrease pressure for different cleaning tasks.
2. Self-Priming Function
This pump includes a self-priming feature, allowing it to draw water from various sources beyond a direct faucet connection. This provides flexibility for use with buckets, pools, or tanks, making it suitable for remote locations or agricultural work.

This image visually demonstrates the pump's self-priming function, showing it drawing water from an alternative source like a pool, offering greater operational flexibility.

Maintenance
1. General Care
The pump is constructed from durable die-cast aluminum, designed for rust resistance and long-term use. A thermal relief valve is integrated to prevent overheating by releasing hot water and allowing cooler water to enter, protecting the pump during operation.
2. Oil Changes
Regular oil changes are crucial for maintaining pump performance and extending its lifespan. It is recommended to change the pump oil every 200 hours of operation.

This image highlights the necessity of adding oil for lasting performance and indicates the recommended oil change interval of every 200 hours.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your WOJET Pressure Washer Pump, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- No Water Flow: Check that the water supply is fully open and free of kinks. Ensure all hose connections are secure and not leaking. Verify the inlet filter is clean and not obstructed.
- Low Pressure: Confirm the pressure adjustment knob is set to the desired level (clockwise for higher pressure). Inspect the spray nozzle for blockages or wear. Ensure the engine is running at its optimal RPM.
- Pump Overheating: Check the water supply for adequate flow. Ensure the thermal relief valve is functioning correctly. Avoid prolonged bypass operation without spraying.
- Leaks: Inspect all connections for tightness. Check O-rings and seals for damage and replace if necessary.
- Engine Issues: Refer to your pressure washer engine's specific instruction manual for engine-related troubleshooting.
For persistent issues, please contact customer support.
