OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEANING WITH DETERGENTS:
1. Refer to "Detergent Cleaning Precautions" pg. 6. Be certain to wear
protective safety attire as stated on pg. 10.
2. Prepare detergent solution according to label directions. Never pump
acids, akalines abrasive uids or solvents thru the unit.
3. Connect the detergent hose to the unit as shown on page 8. The detergent
ratio is preset and cannot be adjusted.
4. Immerse the detergent strainer into the detergent solution to allow
detergent to siphon.
5. With the trigger gun locked in the "OFF" position, move the nozzle cover
at the end of the wand away from the trigger gun.
NOTE: This injection system is designed to apply detergents under low
pressure only. It will not allow detergent solutions to be introduced into
the system unless the nozzle cover at the end of the wand is moved
away from the trigger gun in the low pressure detergent mode.
6. To apply solution, unlock the trigger gun and squeeze the trigger. In a
few moments a detergent/water mixture will exit the low pressure nozzle.
Start spraying the lower portion of the surface being cleaned and move
up, using long overlapping strokes. Applying from the bottom up helps
avoid streaking. Allow to soak briey. (Avoid working on hot surfaces or
in direct sunlight to minimize the chances of the detergent drying, which
may result in damaging painted surfaces.) Be certain to rinse a small
section at a time.
7. To rinse; lock the trigger gun in the "OFF" position, pull the nozzle cover
at the end of the wand toward the trigger gun. Unlock the trigger gun
and spray. It will take about 30 seconds to purge all detergent from the
line. For best rinsing results, start at the top and work down.
8. Siphon a gallon of water through the low pressure detergent injection
system after each use. This prevents the possibility of corrosion or
detergent residue causing mechanical problems during the next use.
SHUTDOWN:
1. Turn engine "OFF" as directed in the Engine Manual.
2. Turn the water supply "OFF".
3. Pointing the gun in a safe direction, trigger gun momentarily to relieve
any trapped pressure.
4. Once pressure is relieved, disconnect the nozzle assembly.
5. Disconnect and drain gun, wand and hoses.
6. Wipe unit clean and store with gun, wand and hoses in a safe, non-
freezing area.
