Using the detergent facility

Fill a suitable container with pressure washer detergent. Do not use washing up liquid as it
contains salt. We recommend the use of a good quality pressure washer detergent for use
with this pressure washer. Please follow the instructions on the container.
Most automobile detergents are a combination of a detergent and a wax solution, (wash/wax
liquid). These tend to be a thick viscous liquid. The viscosity (thickness) of the detergent will
increase in cold weather. It is recommended that this type of detergent is diluted with warm
water before filling the container. When using combination wash and wax solutions we
recommend that they are diluted before use. As a general guide we would recommend a
dilution rate of 50/50. However a trial and error process would determine the ideal dilution rate
for a particular detergent.
Notes



A thick viscous detergent would not flow freely from the detergent tank and the residue
would cause a blockage in the detergent flow system.



After using the detergent facility it should be flushed out thoroughly using copious amounts
of water.

To activate detergent delivery, fit the black low
pressure nozzle to the end of the lance. Submerge
the end of the detergent suction tube (picture 3,
part 25) into your container of pressure washer
detergent. Suction and mixing will occur
automatically as the water flows through the
pump.
