How to Stop Your Pressure Washer
• Move the throttle lever to "Stop" position.
• Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to relieve
pressure in the hose.
NOTE: A small amount of water will squirt out when
you release the pressure.
How To Use the Adjustable Nozzle
You now should know how to START your pressure
washer and how to STOP it. The information in this
section will tell you how to adjust the spray pattern
and apply detergent or other cleaning chemicals.
_ CAUTION! NEVER adjust spray pattern when
spraying. NEVER put hands in front of nozzle to
adjust spray pattern.
On the end of your spray gun is a nozzle handle that
can adjust the spray pressure and the spray pattern.
• Point the nozzle toward the ground, disengage the
safety latch, and press the trigger to test the
pattern.
Sliding the nozzle forward and back adjusts the
spray pressure.
Slide nozzle backward for
high pressure mode.
Slide nozzle forward for low
pressure mode and
detergent application.
Rotating the nozzle adjusts the spray pattern from
a narrow pattern to a fan pattern.

Twist nozzle counter- Twist nozzle clockwise for
clockwise for fan pattern, narrow spray pattern.
For most effective cleaning, keep the spray nozzle
between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning
surface.
If you get the spray nozzle too close, especially
using high pressure mode, you may damage the
surface being cleaned.
DO NOT get closer than 8 inches when cleaning
tires.
Applying Detergent with Adjustable Nozzle
IMPORTANT: Use chemicals designed specifically for
pressure washers. Household detergents could
damage the pump.
IMPORTANT: 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.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
• Review the use of the adjustable nozzle.
• Prepare the detergent solution as required by the
job.
• Hang the detergent solution container on the hook
attached to the handle.
• Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube
into the detergent container.
CAUTION! When inserting the filter into the detergent
container, route the tube so as to keep it from
inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.
