cockwise direction it will not dispense detergent.

Turn the Nozzle Head until the two metal blades
move apart completely. Straighten out a paper
clip and insert it into the tip of the Nozzle. Back
flush the Nozzle with water. (see section 5.2)
Detergent to Water ratio Your Powerwasher draws detergent at a 10:1
ratio. Most pressure washer detergents are gene-
rally concentrated within that range so minimal
adjustment is required. If you feel like you are
using more detergent than is required for the ap-
plication you can dilute it with regular tap water.
Detergent - What to use We recommend that you use a cleaner which is
specifically designed for power washers. There
are different kinds available depending on the
application. Check with your local Home Depot
store for the product which is best suited for
your needs.
Never use Bleach, Ammonia or Hot
water in the unit.
