WARNING:
NEVER remove nozzles without first turning off the en-
gine, relieving the water pressure in the trigger handle,
and locking the lock out on the trigger handle. NEVER
point the nozzle at your face or at others. The quick-
connect feature contains small springs that could eject
the nozzle with some force. Failure to follow these in-
structions could result in an eye injury or other serious
personal injury.
To connect a nozzle to the spray wand:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Pull back the quick-connect collar.
Push the nozzle into place in the spray wand.
Push the collar forward so that the nozzle is secured
properly. Check to see that the nozzle is secure.
To disconnect a nozzle from the spray wand once the
cleaning job is complete:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Pull back and hold the quick-connect collar.
Remove the nozzle by pulling it from the quick-connect
collar. Place nozzle in the nozzle storage area on the top
of the machine.

NOTICE:
Only use the CAR nozzle setting for washing the exterior
surfaces of cars and other motor vehicles. The use of any
other nozzle settings, including the soap settings, could
result in damage to vehicle paint and other vehicle parts.

OPERATION
USING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
WARNING:
Injection hazard. Fully unwrap and straighten high pres-
sure hose prior to and during each use and do not allow
it to become kinked. The high pressure hose features an
outer covering that provides strength to the hose. If the
outer covering becomes damaged, stop using the hose
and replace it immediately. A kinked or damaged hose
can develop a high pressure leak and result in a possible
injection or other serious personal injury.
To prevent damage to the outer covering:
Inspect the hose before every use.
Fully unwrap and straighten hose before use.
Do not allow the high pressure hose to be kinked.
Keep hose away from hot surfaces and sharp edges.
Do not pull unit by high pressure hose.
Do not allow hose to be crushed or wrapped around
objects.
