Usage Tips
For most effective cleaning, keep spray tip from 8 to
24 inches away from cleaning surface.
If you get spray tip too close, especially using a high
pressure spray tip, you may damage surface being
cleaned.
DO NOT get closer than 6 inches when cleaning tires.
How to Use the Turbo Nozzle
The turbo nozzle spins a 0° nozzle stream in a circular
pattern, providing an intense wide-spray pattern for scouring
large surface areas fast and efficiently.
A turbo nozzle can easily cut through heavy oil and grease
stains on concrete, brick and plastic and strip paint from
various surfaces. DO NOT use the turbo nozzle on delicate
materials, especially wood. Always start the turbo nozzle at a
distance, gradually getting closer to the surface until you get
the cleaning force you want. Always keep the turbo nozzle in
a constant motion. NEVER dwell on a single spot. Pass over
stubborn stains repeatedly until they are gone using even
strokes.
To attach the turbo nozzle to the nozzle extension:
1. Engage trigger lock on spray gun trigger.
2. Pull back collar on quick–connect and pull current
nozzle off. Store nozzles in holder provided on the
accessory tray.
3. Pull back on collar, insert turbo nozzle and release
collar. Tug on turbo nozzle to make sure it is securely
in place.
4. For most effective cleaning, keep turbo nozzle from 8 to
24 inches away from cleaning surface. If you get turbo
nozzle too close, you may damage cleaning surface.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied with the turbo nozzle.

A
WARNING
The high pressure stream of water that this
equipment produces can cut through skin and its
underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
The turbo nozzle produces an extremely high
pressure spray which is capable of removing
paint and cutting holes through surfaces if held
too close.
Always make sure the surface you will clean will not be damaged
by the high pressure spray by testing in a hidden area.
