inlet. Check that high pressure hose is connected
to spray gun and pump and start engine.
6. Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washed and work upward,
using long, even, overlapping strokes.
7. Allow detergent to soak in between 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
After you have applied detergent, scour the
surface and rinse it clean as follows:
1. Engage trigger lock on spray gun.
2. Remove black spray tip from nozzle extension.
3. Select and install desired high pressure spray tip
following instructions "How to Use Spray Tips'.'

from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable
location.
