The angle of the water on the regulating lance may be adjusted for high or low pressure by turning the nozzle adjuster counter-clockwise for a higher pressure or clockwise all the way to the “dot” for a lower pressure. (Fig. 13) Always make sure that the "On/Off' switch is in the "Off" position before changing the pressure of the water jet. It is also recommended that the trigger gun safety lock be engaged as well. The regulating lance allows you to use any variety of pressure from full pressure to low. When using the pressure washer to clean wood decks, siding, vehicles, etc., always begin spraying from a minimum 36-inches away at the lowest pressure setting to avoid damaging the surface material that you are cleaning. Always clear the area that you will be cleaning of people, pets and objects.

Using the Turbo Lance

The turbo lance is capable of cleaning most areas around the garden or on building work but using detergent is useful when cleaning automobiles or other painted finishes.

Using Brush With the Trigger Gun

The brush is used with the trigger gun. Push the brush onto the trigger gun nozzle and turn clockwise to lock as you would for the lances. (Fig. 14) the brush may be used for washing cars, boats, windows and other similar items. The brush operates at open orifice pressure so it will not direct a stream of water.

Using Detergent with the Pressure Washer

We recommend using either brush or the regulating lance when you wish to use the detergent with your pressure washer. To use the regulating lance, set the pressure handle to the minimum pressure level indicated by the “dot”. (Fig. 16)

Add detergent to the detergent tank and insert the feed tube into the detergent tank through the removable detergent tank lid. Make sure that the feed tube goes all the way to the bottom of the detergent tank.

If you do not need to use detergent, remove the feed tube from the detergent tank.
