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.
Pressure Washer Rinsing
WARNING! Be extremely careful if you must use
the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any
other relatively unstable location.When you press the
trigger, the recoil from the initial spray could cause
you to fall.The high pressure spray could also cause
you to fall if you are too close to the cleaning surface.
For Rinsing:
1. Slide nozzle backward to high pressure, press trigger
and wait for detergent to clear.
CAUTION! Firmly grasp spray gun with both
hands when using high pressure spray to avoid
injury if gun kicks back.
NOTE: You can also stop detergent from flowing by simply
removing chemical injection hose from bottle.
2. Keep spray gun a safe distance from area you plan to
spray.
3. Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check
the surface for damage. If no damage is found, it is okay
to continue cleaning.
4. Start at top of area to be rinsed, working down with
same overlapping strokes as you used for washing and
applying detergent.
Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun,
circulating water in the pump can reach a temperature
between 125°–155°F.When the water reaches this
temperature, the automatic cool down system engages and
cools the pump by discharging the warm water onto
the ground. This system prevents internal damage to the
pump.
