What happens here
Before powering on the pressure washer, connect a water supply hose to the unit's inlet. The presenter emphasizes the importance of an inline filter to prevent any debris from entering and damaging the pump system. Once the water hose is securely attached, pull the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and purge any trapped air. This ensures the pump is lubricated with water and prevents it from running dry, which could cause significant damage.
Goal: Ensure proper water connection and protect the pump from dry running.
