Review the use of the adjustable nozzle on Page 7.
Connect garden hose to water inlet (see "TO START
PRESSURE WASHER" on page 9), check that high
pressure hose is connected to spray gun and pump
(see ASSEMBLY), and start engine.
Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting from the bot-
tom and working up.
Allow the detergent to soak in between 3-5 minutes
before washing and rinsing.
NOTE: To adjust the concentration of the mixture of
cleaning chemical and water turn the knob where the

RINSING WITH THE PRESSURE WASHER
° Hook up the water supply and start your pressure
washer (see TO START PRESSURE WASHER on
page 9).
° Slide adjustable nozzle sleeve backward to high pres-
sure position and wait for detergent to clear.
Detergent will not flow when in the high pressure
mode.
When detergent has cleared you may want to expand
the spray pattern for a more gentle rinsing action.
Start at top of area to be rinsed, working down with
same action as for cleaning.
You can also stop detergent from flowing by simply
removing siphon from bottle.
STOPPING YOUR PRESSURE WASHER
iMPORTANT: Do not run pump without the water supply
connected and turned on. You must follow this caution or
the pump wilt be damaged.
• First, move engine RUN/STOP switch to "STOP' posi-
tion.
For cleaning, start at lower portion of area to be
washed and work upward, using tong, even overlap-
ping strokes.
WARNING: Be extremely careful if you
must use pressure washer from ladder,
scaffolding or any other relatively unstable
location. Pressure in a running washer
builds in the wand as you climb. When you
press the trigger, the recoil from the initial
spray could force you to fall, or if you are
too close to the cleaning surface, high pres-
sure could force you off climbing apparatus.
Simply shutting OFF engine will not release pressure
in the system. Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun
for about 3 seconds to relieve pressure. Spray stream
will noticeably decrease in length.
If you are not going td use the unit for tong periods of
time close the fuel shut-off valve.
