the spray is too close it can damage the cleaning surface.
INSTALLING/REMOVING NOZZLES

WARNING:
NEVER change nozzles or spray patterns without lock-
ing the lock out on the trigger handle and NEVER point
the wand at your face or at others. The quick-connect

injury.
Using the quick-connect collar, changing the nozzle is
easy.

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.

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
