CAUTION: The pencil point spray adju-
stment is very aggressive. We recommend
that for most cleaning applications, a
twenty degree (20°) spray angle be used
CAUTION
to avoid damage to the surface being
sprayed.
NOTE: The pressure of the spray on the surface you
are cleaning increases as you move the wand closer
to the surface.
To increase angle of fan spray, turn black tip coun-
terclockwise.
To decrease angle to pencil point spray, turn black
tip clockwise.

USE OF DETERGENT

1. Remove wand. (Fig.21) See page 14.
2. Unscrew soap lance from bottle and make sure
that the detergent suction tube is properly attached.
(Fig.22) See page 15.
3. Install soap dispenser assembly. (Fig. 23)
4. The soap or wax will automatically be mixed with
the water and discharged through the soap lan-
ce.

CLEANING TECHNIQUES

When cleaning with the pressure washer, many clea-
ning tasks can be solved with water alone, but for most
tasks it is advantageous to use detergent. A detergent
ensures a quick soaking of the dirt allowing the high
pressure water to penetrate and remove the dirt more
effectively.
APPLICATION OF DETERGENT
1. Apply the pressure washer soap solution to a DRY
work surface. NOTE: WETTING THE SURFACE
FIRST IS NOT RECOMMENDED, AS IT DILUTES
THE DETERGENT AND REDUCES ITS CLEANING
ABILITY. On a vertical surface, apply soap hori-
zontally from side to side starting from the bottom
to avoid streaking.
CAUTION: Avoid working on hot
surfaces or in direct sunlight to minimize
the chance of soap damage to painted
WARNING
surfaces.
2. Allow the soap to remain on the surface for a
short time before rinsing. Check detergent bottle
instructions.
CAUTION: Damage may occur to painted surface if
soap is allowed to dry on the surface. Wash and rinse
a small section at a time.
3. Rinse with clean water under high pressure. On a
vertical surface, first rinse from the bottom up, then
rinse from the top down. Hold nozzle 6 to 8 inches
from the work surface at a 45° angle.
English

APPLICATION OF LIQUID VEHICLE WAX

1. Immediately after cleaning, apply liquid vehicle
wax using the soap dispenser assembly.
2. Apply the wax sparingly in an even layer. Apply
to wet surfaces from the bottom up for even distri-
bution and to avoid streaking.
3. Remove the suction tube from the wax bottle and
rinse off the surplus wax from your vehicle under
low pressure. NOTE – IF SURPLUS WAX IS NOT
REMOVED, A HAZY FINISH MAY RESULT.
4. Wipe dry to reduce water spotting.

END OF OPERATION

When you have completed use of the soap/wax appli-
cation, remove soap lance from detergent bottle and
flush clean water through the tube until it is thoroughly
cleaned.
NOTE: Failure to clean properly will cause the injection
system to become clogged and inoperable.
Press power switch to the "OFF" position to stop the
machine. (Fig.18)
Disconnect GFCI plug.
Turn off water and depressurize unit by squeezing
trigger.
WARNING: Turn off water supply and
squeeze trigger to depressurize the unit.
Failure to do so could result in personal
WARNING injury due to discharge of high pressure
water.
Disconnect the high pressure hose and the garden
hose.
5.6

HOSE REEL KIT

Insert the high pressure hose nut coupler (Fig.24) into
the slot in the hose reel.
Hold the hose firmly into the slot. At the same time,
turn handle in the direction shown (Fig. 25). Allow
hose to slide through hand applying slight resistance
for proper coiling.
Stop winding hose 2 ft. (60 cm) from gun to provide
enough slack to store gun in holder located on the
docking station. See page 6, #27 for storage loca-
tion.
