WASHING WITH DETERGENT
See Figures 16 - 17.
As sold, this unit is designed for use with "downstream"
pressure washer detergents. To convert for use with
"upstream" detergents, contact an authorized customer
service center for more information.
USE ONLY DETERGENTS DESIGNED FOR PRESSURE
WASHERS. Do not use household detergents, acids,
alkalines, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions, which can damage the pump.
Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. Prepare
cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle. Always
test in an inconspicuous area before beginning.
 Remove the cap from the detergent container. Place the
detergent injection hose with filter in the bottle, the filter
end should rest at the bottom of the bottle.
NOTE: The machine setting of this unit is 1:20, which
usually allows the use of 1 gallon detergent without further
dilution. Check your detergent instructions to be sure
additional dilution is not necessary.
 Install the blue nozzle on the spray wand.
 Squeeze the trigger and wait approximately 5 seconds
for the detergent to appear.
 Spray the detergent on a dry surface using long, even,
overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow
detergent to dry on the surface.
Before shutting off the engine:
 Place the detergent injection hose in a bucket of clean
water.
 Flush for 1 - 2 minutes (spray clear water through the
spray wand).
 Shut off the engine.
NOTE: Shutting OFF ( O ) the engine will not relieve
pressure in the system. Pull trigger to release water
pressure.
