8.0 TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM OR CONCERN POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

Detergent is not dispensing The suction tube located in the

detergent spray bottle assembly
has been disconnected or clogged.

Remove the soap lance assembly from the
detergent bottle. Make sure that the clear tube
is properly connected to the soap lance. If it is
not connected then reconnect it.

Detergent to Water ratio

Your Powerwasher draws detergent at a 10:1 ratio.
Most pressure washer detergents are generally
concentrated within that range so minimal
adjustment is required.
If you feel like you are using more detergent than
is required for the application you can dilute it with
regular tap water.

Detergent - What to use

We recommend that you use a cleaner which is
specifically designed for power washers. There
are different kinds available depending on the
application. Check with your local Home Depot
store for the product which is best suited for your
needs.
Never use Bleach, Ammonia or Hot
water in the unit.
