Installation & Service Notes
- Shut down the pressure washer and disconnect the spark plug before servicing.
- Relieve all system pressure.
- Verify compatibility with the 1-inch shaft, mounting configuration, engine horsepower, and pressure requirements.
- Install the pump according to the manufacturer's specifications.
- Connect the 1/2" FPT inlet and 3/8" FPT outlet fittings.
- Ensure the integrated unloader valve is properly adjusted according to system specifications.
- Prime the pump with water before startup.
- Verify proper operation and inspect for leaks after installation.
Important: Never operate the pump without an adequate water supply. Running the pump dry can quickly damage the ceramic plungers, seals, valves, and unloader assembly, significantly reducing pump service life.
Maintenance Recommendations
- Check the pump oil level regularly and service the pump according to Comet maintenance schedules.
- Inspect the ceramic plungers, packings, water seals, valves, and integrated unloader valve during routine maintenance.
- Maintain clean, filtered inlet water to minimize internal wear.
- Periodically inspect inlet and outlet fittings for leaks or damage.
- Use only genuine OEM Comet replacement parts and approved lubricants to maintain optimum pump performance, reliability, and long service life.
