For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle from 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 6 inches when cleaning tires.

pressure washers. Household detergents could damage the pump.

CAUTION! 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 adjustable nozzles.

Prepare the detergent solution as required by the job.

Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube into the detergent container.

CAUTION! Keep the detergent siphoning tube from coming in contact with the hot muffler.

Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle in high pressure position.
