Nozzle Maintenance
A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun

using the tools included with your pressure washer and
follow these instructions:
1. Shut off engine and turn off water supply.

clockwise to stream position. Using supplied 2mm
(5/64) allen wrench, remove orifice from end of nozzle
extension (Figure 14).
3. Remove in-line filter from other end of nozzle
extension.
4. Use wire included in kit (or a small paper clip) to free
any foreign material clogging or restricting orifice
(Figure 14).
5. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by back
flushing water through nozzle extension (Figure 15).
Back flush between 30 to 60 seconds.Turn adjustable
nozzle extension to stream spray and move nozzle
from low to high while flushing.
