ASSEMBLING THE SPRAY WAND TO THE
TRIGGER HANDLE

on the end of the trigger handle.
Turn the connector clockwise until it stops. This secures
the spray wand in place.
USING THE SPRAY WAND TRIGGER
See Figures 17 - 18.
For greater control and safety, keep both hands on the
trigger handle at all times.
Pull back and hold the trigger to operate the pressure
washer.
Release the trigger to stop the flow of water through the
nozzle.
To engage the lock out:
Push up on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
To disengage the lock out:
Push the lock out down and into its original position.
For the most effective cleaning, the spray nozzle should be
between 8 in. and 24 in. from the surface to be cleaned. If
the spray is too close it can damage the cleaning surface.
INSTALLING/REMOVING NOZZLES
See Figure 19.
WARNING:
NEVER change nozzles or spray patterns without lock-
ing the lock out on the trigger handle and NEVER point
the wand at your face or at others. The quick-connect
feature contains small springs that could eject the nozzle
with some force. Failure to heed this may cause personal
injury.
Using the quick-connect collar, changing the nozzle is
easy.
To connect the nozzle to the trigger handle:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Push the nozzle into the quick-connect collar until it clicks
in place and is secured properly.
To disconnect a nozzle from the trigger handle once the
cleaning job is complete:
Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water
supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
Engage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.
Remove the nozzle by placing hand over nozzle then
pulling back the quick-connect collar.
