Picked up a Troybilt Pressure Washer a few days ago. Reading through the manual, the listed shutdown procedure is as below:
1. Release spray gun trigger and let engine idle for two minutes.
2. Turn engine off according to instructions given in engine operator's manual.
This seems contrary to convention. I would think you would want the pump operating in bypass ideally as little as possible considering that the longer water circulates within the pump body, the more it heats up.
Am I missing something?
