NOZZLE MAINTENANCE
If the nozzle becomes restricted or clogged with foreign
materials, such as dirt, excessive pump pressure may
develop. A partially clogged nozzle can cause a pulsing
sensation during use. This generally is not a pump relat
ed problem, but rather a clogged or partially restricted
nozzle.
If the nozzle becomes clogged or partially restricted,
immediately clean the nozzle with the kit included with
your pressure washer by following these instructions:
•
Shut off the engine and turn off the water supply.
•
Separate the wand from the gun.
•
Rotate to stream setting.
•
Remove nozzle from the end of the wand using a
2mm or 5/64 alien wrench (like the one induct in the
kit).

Use the wire included in the kit dr a small paper clip to

ply through wand. Back flush between 30 to 60 sec
onds. Turn wand to stream spray and move nozzle
from low to high pressure while flushing.
Reinstall nozzle into wand. DO NOT overtighten.
Reconnect wand extension to spray gun.
Reconnect the water supply, turn ON the water, and
start the engine.
Test the pressure washer by operating with nozzle in
the high and the low pressure positions.
