2. Point nozzle towards a firm surface and press trigger
to test spray pattern (Figure 10).
3. Twisting nozzle adjusts spray pattern from a narrow
pattern to a fan pattern (Figure 11).
Usage Tips
• For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle from 8 to
24 inches away from cleaning surface.
• If you get spray nozzle too close, especially using high
pressure mode, you may damage surface being cleaned.
• DO NOT get closer than 6 inches when cleaning tires.
Applying Detergent With Adjustable
Nozzle
IMPORTANT: Use soaps designed specifically for
pressure washers. Household detergents could damage
the pump.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
1. Review adjustable nozzle use.
2. Prepare detergent solution as required by job.
3. Place filter end of chemical injection hose into detergent
container.
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.
CAUTION
• When inserting the filter into a detergent solution bottle,
route the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently contacting
the hot exhaust.
Keep the chemical injection tube from coming in contact
with the hot exhaust.
CAUTION
• Starting the engine without all the hoses connected and
without the water turned ON will damage the pump.
• Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this
instruction will void warranty.
You must attach all hoses before you start the engine.
