4. Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode.
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. 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" 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 chemical injection
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.
NOTE: You can also stop detergent from flowing by simply
removing chemical injection hose from bottle.
2. Keep spray gun a safe distance from area you plan to
spray.
3. Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check
the 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.
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.
• Keep spray nozzle between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning
surface.
• Operate this unit on a stable surface.
• Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from
a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable location.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury if gun kicks back.
High pressure spray could cause you to fall if
you are too close to the cleaning surface.
