USING DIFFERENT NOZZLES
Variable nozzle (with pressure adjustor) (Fig. 11)
The variable nozzle (with pressure adjustor) can be used
to alternation between “Jet” and “Spray” and between
“High Pressure” and “Low Pressure”.
Rotate the end on the nozzle clockwise for “Jet”, and
counter-clockwise for “Spray”.
Also, rotate the pressure adjuster clockwise for “Low
Pressure”, and counter-clockwise for “High Pressure”.
Jet washer
A water jet is discharged in a direct line to remove
stubborn mud and other dirt from agricultural machinery,
etc.
Spray washer
The water is discharged in a wide fan for cleaning walls,
motorbikes and automobiles, etc.
The entire nozzle can be rotated by approximately 90
degrees to change the shape of the spray between
horizontal and vertical.
NOTE
The pressure adjuster will also be rotated when
alternating between “Jet” and “Spray”, so readjust this to
the required setting after making the adjustment.
Set the spray adjustment to “Jet” rst of all, and then
gradually move it to the “Spray” position while pulling the
trigger.
Note that there is a chance of the water being sprayed
horizontally over a wide area if this is rotated fully to the
“Spray” position.
Note that the nozzle may be damaged if it is forced to
move past the stop position when alternating between
“Jet” and “Spray”.
Turbo nozzle
The turbo nozzle rotates as it sprays high-pressure jets of
water for e cient washing.
NOTE
The turbo nozzle only discharges powerful jets of water
when set at the “Jet” mode.
Avoid using this on items that are easily broken or for
which coatings are easily peeled.
USING THE DETERGENT BOTTLE (Fig. 12)
Sprays water mixed with detergent.
Uses neutral detergents available on the open market.
WARNING
Do not use acidic or alkali detergents. Use only neutral
detergents available on the open market.
Using detergents other than neutral detergents or
chemical agents may result in accidents or malfunctions.
NOTE
Check to make sure that the water feed pipe is rmly
connected to the washer.
The detergent will not be mixed with the spray otherwise.
ï Remove the cap from the detergent bottle and pour the
detergent into it.
î Make sure the lter on the tip of the detergent bottle’s
water feed pipe is inserted into the liquid and then tighten
the cap rmly.
NOTE
Only the “Low Pressure” setting can be used for variable
nozzles (with pressure adjustors) when using the
detergent bottle.
The detergent will not be sprayed if the “High Pressure”
setting on variable nozzles (with pressure adjustors) or
turbo nozzles are used.
í Set the adjustor to “Low Pressure” when using variable
nozzles (with pressure adjustors.)
ì Water containing the detergent will be sprayed at low
pressure when the trigger on the trigger gun is pulled.
Cleaning the detergent bottle (Figs. 13 and 14)
ï Remove the detergent bottle’s water feed pipe from the
washer.
î Push the detergent bottle from the bottom and withdraw it
from the top.
í Wash the detergent bottle, water feed pipe and lter with
water from the faucet.
ì When reattaching the bottle, hold it as shown in Fig. 14,
and then push the protrusion on the bottom in as far as it
will go.
ë Insert the water feed pipe into the washer and tighten the
cap while making sure dust or dirt does not enter.
USING THE STRAINER HOSE SET (sold
separately)
The separately-sold strainer hose set is equipped with a
function that will automatically suck water from a water tank,
etc., when attached to the AW150.
The maximum height of suction (lifting range) is
approximately 0.5 m.
Attach this correctly in accordance with conditions.
