Ghid de instalare

Replacing O-rings in your pressure washer quick coupler fittings is a straightforward process. Follow these steps to ensure a proper seal and prevent leaks.

Step 1: Identify the Correct O-Ring Size

These O-rings are specifically designed for 1/4" Quick Connect fittings. While the fitting is 1/4", the O-ring itself measures 3/8" Inside Diameter and 0.100" Thick. It is crucial to verify your fitting size before installation. If your fitting is 3/8", you will need O-rings with a 1/2" ID.

Step 2: Prepare the Fitting

Disconnect the pressure washer from its power source and water supply. Relieve any residual pressure in the system. Carefully disassemble the quick coupler or threaded fitting where the O-ring needs replacement.

Step 3: Remove Old O-Ring

Use a small pick or a thin, non-abrasive tool to carefully remove the old, worn, or damaged O-ring from its groove. Inspect the groove for any debris or damage and clean it thoroughly.

Step 4: Install New O-Ring

Lightly lubricate the new Viton FKM O-ring with silicone grease or a small amount of water to aid in installation and prevent pinching. Carefully place the new O-ring into the clean groove, ensuring it sits flat and is not twisted.

Step 5: Reassemble and Test

Reassemble the fitting, ensuring all connections are secure. Reconnect the pressure washer to the water supply and power. Turn on the water and check for leaks before operating the pressure washer at full pressure.

Depanare

Issue: Leaks after O-ring replacement

• Dimensiune incorectă: Ensure you have installed the correct O-ring size for your fitting. These O-rings are for 1/4" Quick Connect fittings, which use a 3/8" ID O-ring. A common mistake is using an O-ring that is too large or too small for the specific fitting, leading to leaks or difficulty in connection.
• Așezare necorespunzătoare: Verify that the O-ring is seated correctly in its groove and is not twisted or pinched during reassembly.
• Damaged Fitting: Inspect the fitting itself for any cracks, burrs, or damage that might prevent a proper seal, even with a new O-ring.
• Lubrifiere insuficientă: A dry O-ring can be damaged during installation or fail to seal properly. Ensure light lubrication.
