using the detergent injector­

See Figures 12 - 13.

The G-Clean detergent injector allows you to use G-Clean detergent while using your pressure washer for high and low pressure cleaning.

NOTE: Use only G-Clean detergent in the injector. Any other solutions may damage the injector and/or your pressure washer pump.

Disconnect pressure washer from power supply.

Place pressure washer upright on a flat surface.

nUnscrew the cap from the end of the clear tube on the injector. Remove G-Clean detergent pouch from plastic bag and place into the tube, then replace the cap and tighten securely.

NOTE: Make sure the cap is securely tightened. Allowing air into the injector during use may cause damage to your pressure washer pump.

nUse the detergent dial on the G-Clean detergent injector to adjust the amount of soap used during operation.

To rinse with no detergent, turn the dial completely clock- wise.

To clean, turn the detergent dial counter clockwise to desired soap level.

NOTE: If a G-Clean detergent pouch is inserted but de- tergent is not dispensed, check the dial to ensure that it is not turned fully clockwise. If the dial is set correctly, ensure that the detergent pouch has fully dissolved. If detergent is still not dispensed, remove the G-Clean de- tergent injector. Unscrew the injector head from the clear detergent container and flush the screen with water.

using the spray wand

See Figure 14.

For the most effective cleaning, the spray nozzle should be between 8 in. and 24 in. from the surface to be cleaned. If the spray is too close it can damage the cleaning surface.

NOTE: For greater control and safety, keep both hands on the unit at all times.
