How to Use Spray Tips
The quick–connect on the nozzle extension allows you to
switch between four different quick connect spray tips. Spray

spray gun trigger lock is engaged. The spray tips vary the
spray pattern as shown below.
Follow these instructions to change spray tips:
1. Pull back collar on quick–connect and pull current
spray tip off. Store spray tips in holder provided on the
nozzle extension.
2. Select desired spray tip:
For gentle rinse, select white 40° spray tip.
To scour surface, select yellow 15° or red 0° spray tip.
To apply detergent, select black spray tip.
3. Pull back on collar, insert new spray tip and release collar.
Tug on spray tip to make sure it is securely in place.
Usage Tips
For most effective cleaning, keep spray tip from 8 to
24 inches (20 to 61 cm) 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 (15 cm) when
cleaning tires.
Applying Detergent
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
1. Review use of spray tips.
2. Prepare detergent solution as required by job.
3. Place small filter end of detergent siphoning tube into
detergent container.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is fully submerged in detergent
while applying detergent.
4. Make sure black spray tip is installed.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied with the high pressure
spray tips (White, Yellow or Red).
5. Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet.
Check that high pressure hose is connected to spray
gun and pump. Turn on water.
