How to Stop Your Pressure Washer
• Move throttle control lever to "Stop" position.
• Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to relieve
pressure in the hose.
NOTE: A small amount of water will squirt out when
you release the pressure.
How To Use the Adjustable Nozzle
You now should know how to START your pressure
washer and how to STOP it. The information in this
section will tell you how to adjust the spray pattern
and apply detergent or other cleaning chemicals.
_ CAUTION! Never adjust spray pattern when
spraying. Never put hands in front of nozzle to
adjust spray pattern.
Your spray gun is equipped with an adjustable nozzle
that permits you to change the spray pressure and the
spray pattern, as follows:
• Pushing the nozzle forward changes the spray
pressure from high to low pressure. Pulling the
nozzle back changes the pressure from low to high.
Slide nozzle backward for
high pressure mode.
"%
Slide nozzle forward for
low pressure mode and
detergent application.
Twist nozzle counter-
clockwise for fan pattern.
Rotating the nozzle adjusts the spray pattern from
a narrow pattern to a fan pattern.
Twist nozzle clockwise for
narrow spray pattern.
• Point the nozzle toward the ground, disengage the
safety latch, and press the trigger to test the
pattern.
• For most effective cleaning, keep the spray nozzle
between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning
surface.
• If you get the spray nozzle too close, especially
using high pressure mode, you may damage the
surface being cleaned.
• Do Not get closer than 8 inches when cleaning
tires.
Applying Detergent with the Adjustable
Nozzle
IMPORTANT: Use chemicals designed specifically for
pressure washers. Household detergents could
damage the pump.
IMPORTANT: You must attach all hoses before you
start the engine. Starting the engine without all the
hoses connected and without the water turned ON will
damage the pump.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
• Review the use of the adjustable nozzle.
• Prepare detergent solution as required by the job.
• Hang the detergent solution container on the hook
attached to the handle.
• Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube
into the detergent container.
CAUTION! When inserting the filter into the detergent
container, route the tube so as to keep it from
inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.
• Make sure the garden hose is connected to the
water inlet. Check that the high pressure hose is
connected to the spray gun and the pump. Start
the engine.
• Attach the nozzle extension to the spray gun. Slide
the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure
mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle
in high pressure position.
• Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting from the
bottom and working up.
• Allow the detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes
before rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying.
• Start at lower portion of area to be washed and
work upward, using even overlapping strokes.
IMPORTANT: You must flush the chemical injection
system after each use by placing the filter into a clean
bucket of water and running the pressure washer in
low pressure for 1-2 minutes.
