SELECTING THE RIGHT NOZZLE FOR THE
JOB
See Figure 15.
Each of the nozzles has a different spray pattern. Before
starting any cleaning job, determine the best nozzle for the
job. Refer to the
Nozzle Selection Guide for more information
about which nozzle to choose.
WARNING:
NEVER change nozzles without locking the lock out on
the trigger handle and NEVER point the wand at your
face or at others. The quick-connect feature contains
small springs that could eject the nozzle with some force.
Failure to heed this warning could cause personal injury.
To connect a nozzle to the trigger handle:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply.
Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Pull back the quick-connect collar.
Push the nozzle into place in the spray wand.
Push the collar forward so that the nozzle is secured
properly. Check to see that the nozzle is secure.
To disconnect a nozzle from the trigger handle once the
cleaning job is complete:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply.
Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Pull back and hold the quick-connect collar.
Remove the nozzle by pulling it from the quick-connect
collar. Place nozzle in the nozzle storage area on the top
of the machine.
USING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
The high pressure hose features an outer covering that
provides strength to the hose. If the outer covering becomes
damaged, the hose must be replaced immediately.
Do not
use a high pressure hose if the outer covering is damaged.
To prevent damage to the outer covering:
Inspect the hose before every use.
Fully unwrap and straighten hose before use.
Do not allow the high pressure hose to be kinked.
