Pre-Operation Tips:
1. The optimum angle for spraying water against a surface is 45 degrees. A 90
degree angle or direct impact of the water onto the surface can cause dirt par-
ticles to become imbedded in the cleaning surface and debris and high speed
water to reflect back at the operator.
2. The distance between the Nozzle and the cleaning surface directly affects the
impact force of the water. The closer the Nozzle is to the surface, the stronger the
impact.
3. The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time and assist in the
removal of stains. Detergents work best when applied at low pressure. Only use
non-corrosive detergents specifically designed for pressure washer use.
4. The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying them to a surface and
giving the chemicals time to breakdown the dirt and grime.
4. NOTE: The Pressure Washer will not pressurize if the Nozzle is not completely
assembled. It will not work properly with only part of the Wand installed.
5. The Pressure Washer is equipped with a Trigger Safety Lock (25A). When the
Pressure Washer is not in use, use the Safety Lock to avoid accidentally engaging
the high pressure spray. To engage the Safety Lock, lower the Lever and snap it into
the Trigger (23A). (See Figure E.)
