Applying Detergent with Adjustable Nozzle
Chemicals can cause bodily injury, and/or property
damage.
• NEVER use caustic liquid with pressure washer.
• Use ONLY pressure washer safe detergents/soaps. Follow all
manufacturers instructions.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
1. Review use of adjustable nozzle.
2. Prepare detergent solution as required by job.
3. Place filter end of detergent siphoning tube into
detergent container.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is fully submerged in detergent
while applying detergent.
NOTICE
Contact with the hot muffler can damage detergent
siphoning tube.
• When inserting the filter into a detergent solution bottle, route
the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently contacting the hot
muffler.
4. Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied with nozzle in high
pressure position.
5. Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet.
Check that high pressure hose is connected to spray gun
and pump. Turn on water.
NOTICE
You must attach all hoses before you start the engine.
• Starting the engine without all the hoses connected and without
the water turned ON will damage the pump.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void warranty.
6. Engage trigger lock on spray gun and start engine
following instructions How to Start Your Pressure Washer.
7. Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washed and work upward, using
long, even, overlapping strokes.
8. Allow detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes before
washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying. DO NOT allow detergent to dry on
(prevents streaking).
IMPORTANT: You must flush the detergent siphoning system
after each use by placing the filter into a bucket of clean
water, then run the pressure washer in low pressure for
1-2 minutes.
Pressure Washer Rinsing
For Rinsing:
1. Slide nozzle backward to high pressure, press trigger
and wait for detergent to clear.
CAUTION
NOTE: You can also stop detergent flow by removing
detergent siphoning tube from container.
2. Keep spray gun a safe distance from area you plan to
spray.
Kickback from spray gun can cause you to fall.
• Operate pressure washer from a stable surface.
• Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from
a ladder, scaffolding, or any other similar location.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury when spray gun kicks back.
3. Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check
surface for damage. If no damage is found, it is okay to
continue cleaning.
4. Start at top of area to be rinsed, working down with
same overlapping strokes as you used for washing and
applying detergent.
Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube
If you used the detergent siphoning tube, you must flush it
with clean water before stopping the engine.
1. Place detergent siphoning tube/filter in a bucket full of
clean water.
2. Engage trigger lock on spray gun.
3. Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure position.
4. Flush for 1-2 minutes.
5. Shut off engine following instructions How to Stop
Pressure Washer and turn off water supply.
6. ALWAYS point gun in a safe direction and squeeze spray
gun trigger to release retained high water pressure.
IMPORTANT: Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when
engine is stopped and water is disconnected.
The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin and its
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
Spray gun traps high water pressure, even when
engine is stopped and water is disconnected,
which can cause injury.
• Keep high pressure hose connected to pump and spray gun
while system is pressurized.
• ALWAYS point spray gun in safe direction and squeeze spray
gun trigger, to release high pressure, every time you stop
engine. Engage trigger lock when not in use.
Automatic Cool Down System (Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun,
circulating water in the pump can reach temperatures above
125°F. The system engages to cool the pump by discharging
the warm water onto the ground.
