DUAL LANCE ASSEMBLY WITH ADJUSTABLE PRESSURE:
This unit features a Dual Lance Assembly with adjustable pressure which

allows the user to select a high or low pressure "fan" spray. Simply rotate

the adjustable grip on the dual lance to achieve the desired pressure

selection.
1. Selection of high pressure can be achieved by turning the adjustable grip

on the Dual Lance assembly counterclockwise as shown in the figure

below.

2. Selection of low pressure detergent application can be achieved by turning

the adjustable grip on the Dual Lance clockwise as shown in the figure

below. Once the pressure is low enough, the detergent injector on the

pressure washer will draw detergent into the system. A water/detergent

mixture exits from both the spray nozzle and detergent nozzle.

DUAL LANCE CONNECTION:

1. Be certain the trigger gun is locked in the "OFF" position.
2. Connect the dual lance assembly to the trigger gun assembly at this time.

Be certain the connection is securely tightened.

INSTALLATION & PREPARATION

WARNING

RISK OF INJECTION CAUSING

SEVERE INJURY!

-THE TRIGGER GUN SHOULD

ALWAYS BE LOCKED IN THE OFF

POSITION WHEN NOT IN USE!

-NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT

THE NOZZLE UNLESS IT IS

DISCONNECTED FROM THE

TRIGGER GUN/DUAL LANCE

ASSEMBLY!

WATER SUPPLY:
1. Select a water supply hose which is a quality grade of garden hose

measuring at least 3/4" ID and no longer than 50 feet.

2 Check the water inlet strainer to ensure it is clean and free of any

obstructions. As a strainer becomes obstructed, it restricts proper flow of

water to the pump. This can result in cavitations which will prematurely

cause failure of pump packings.

a. Unscrew the strainer cap from the unit.

b. Remove the strainer screen and clean, or replace.

3. Connect one end of the water supply hose to the water inlet of the unit.

Connect the other end of the hose to your pressurized water supply.

NOTE: When connecting the water inlet to the water supply mains, local

regulations of your water company must be observed. In some

areas, the unit must not be connected directly to the public drinking

water supply. This is to ensure there is no feedback of detergents

into the water supply. (Direct connection is permitted if a backflow

preventer is installed. Check with local authorities for approval.)

NOTE: If the mineral content of the water in your area is extremely high, the

use of a water softener is recommended to prevent the possibility of

excessive scale buildup inside the heat exchanger coil.

4. Follow the incoming water requirements listed below:

a. Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 pounds per square inch

(PSI) and a maximum of 125 PSI. (A typical outdoor faucet will

generally supply this PSI if turned completely "ON".)

b. Incoming GPM must be approximately one gallon more than the

outgoing GPM stated on the pressure washer nameplate. (You can

check GPM by timing how long it takes to fill a 5 gallon container.)

c. Incoming water temperature must not exceed 125°F. Excessive pump

damage may result if the water temperature exceeds this acceptable

level.

5. Never allow the unit to operate without the incoming water line attached

and the water supply is completely turned on.
