Operating The Pressure Washer - Husky HU80220 Manual Del Operador

USING THE SPRAY WAND
See Figures 11 - 12.
For the most effective cleaning, the spray nozzle should be
between 8 in. and 24 in. from the surface to be cleaned. If
the spray is too close it can damage the cleaning surface.
NOTE: For greater control and safety, keep both hands on
the unit at all times.
Several different methods of cleaning are available. Choose
the method best suited for your cleaning project.
High Pressure Cleaning:
Squeeze the high pressure trigger located beneath the rear
handle. This will provide a spray of water at high pressure.
When using the high pressure spray alone, detergent is not
dispensed.
Low pressure (High Flow) Cleaning:
Move the low pressure (high flow) lever on top of the trigger
handle forward. This will provide a spray of water at low
pressure.
NOTE: When using low pressure (high flow) cleaning only,
depress the high pressure trigger lock-out to prevent ac-
cidental depressing of the high pressure trigger.
 To dispense soap at this pressure, turn the detergent dial
to the ON position.
 To rinse at low pressure, turn the detergent dial to OFF.
Combination Cleaning/Rinsing:
To apply detergent and rinse the area with water at the
same time (for instance, in a heavily soiled area), move the
low pressure (high flow) lever forward and depress the high
pressure trigger.
 To dispense detergent when using this combination, turn
the detergent dial to the ON position.
 To rinse with no detergent using this combination, turn
the detergent dial to OFF.
NOTE: Any cleaning or rinsing method using high pressure
spray requires that the ON/OFF switch be in the ON position.
For methods using low pressure only, the switch may be in
either the ON or OFF position.
USING THE NOZZLES
See Figure 13.
Before starting any cleaning job, determine the best nozzle
for the job. The 25˚ nozzle is for general purpose or large
surfaces and the turbo nozzle gives up to 50% more clean-
ing power.
CAUTION
:
NEVER change nozzles without locking the lock-out on
the trigger handle.

 Use low pressure to wash items such as a car or
boat.
 Use high pressure for jobs such as stripping paint and
degreasing the driveway.
 Use a combination of high and low pressure (high flow)
for heavily soiled areas where constant flushing is de-
sired.

of high and low pressure (high flow), test a small area first
to avoid surface damage.
