Why doesn’t the pressure washer apply detergents with high pressure?

The reason you don’t apply detergents with high pressure is that the detergents “bounce” off the cleaning surface as fast as you apply them.

Detergent is only effective when you allow it time to work on the surface of whatever you are cleaning. You can only apply detergent at low pressure, wait 1-3 minutes to allow it to work, and rinse the surface with high pressure.

What maintenance do I need to perform on my pressure washer?

1.After turning off the pressure washer and the water, depressurize the hose by triggering the gun.

2.Remove the garden hose and high pressure hose from the pump.

3.Pull the start rope slowly five times to purge water from the pump. This will help protect the pump from damage.

4.DO NOT store your pressure washer in an area where the temperature will drop below 32˚F / 0˚C) unless pressure washer is properly winterized (see Page 15).
