The two main things to do when winterizing your pressure washer are to make sure all the fluids have been drained and run anti-freeze through the system to protect from freezing and damage while in storage.
Winterize a RAMTEQ Electric Pressure Washer with no Float Tank
1. Prepare antifreeze
2. Attach a garden hose to the water inlet connection on the machine.
Tip: 3 ft. of garden hose will be long enough to get the job done.
3. Remove the pressure nozzle from the wand
4. Connect the other end of the hose into a container of antifreeze.
5. Place the wand into the antifreeze container.
6. Turn machine on.
7. Let antifreeze flow into the machine from the end of the wand.
Tip: Let the machine run for 2 - 3 minutes to make sure antifreeze has a chance to flow through the machine.
8. Turn the machine off and replace the pressure nozzle.
9. Unplug your pressure washer, coil up the hose, and store it in a warm area (40 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer).

6. Let the machine run to let the antifreeze flow through the machine.
Tip: Let the machine run for 2 - 3 minutes to make sure antifreeze has a chance to flow through the machine.
7. Unplug your pressure washer and store it in a warm area (40 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer). Do not store flammable liquids near a pressure washer or in a non-ventilated area.
Tip: Place the machine in a covered area and protected it from cold temperatures.
If your machine has gas remaining in the tank use a fuel stabilizer to prevent that gas from gumming up causing a blockage in the lines. Make sure to remove all detergent and water from the pressure washer machine as well.
