WARNING:

NEVER change nozzles without locking the lock out on the trigger handle and NEVER point the wand at your face or at others. The quick-connect feature contains small springs that could eject the nozzle with some force. Failure to heed this may cause personal injury.

Using the quick-connect collar, changing nozzles is easy.

To connect a nozzle to the trigger handle:

nTurn off the pressure washer and shut off the water supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.

nEngage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.

nPull back the quick-connect collar.

nPush the nozzle into place in the spray wand.

nPush the collar forward so that the nozzle is secured properly. Check to see that the nozzle is secure.

To disconnect a nozzle from the trigger handle once the cleaning job is complete:

nTurn off the pressure washer and shut off the water supply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.

nEngage the lock out on the trigger handle by pushing up on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.

nRemove the nozzle by placing hand over nozzle then pulling back the quick-connect collar. Place nozzle in the nozzle storage area on the top of the spray wand.
