Generac Portable Products 3,000 PSI High Pressure Washer
Pressure Washer Rinsing
WARNING! Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable location. Hose water pressure builds as you climb. When you press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray can be very strong. The high pressure spray could force you to fall if you are too close to the cleaning surface.
After you have applied detergent, scour the surface and rinse it clean as follows:
•Apply safety latch to spray gun.
•Remove the black chemical nozzle from the nozzle extension.
•Select and install the desired high pressure nozzle following the instructions “How to Use the Nozzles” on page 8.
•Release the safety latch on the spray gun.
•Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you plan to spray.
•Increase or decrease spray pressure by turning the pressure control knob counterclockwise or clockwise respectively (Figure 12). Use lower pressure to wash items such a as a car or boat. Use higher pressure to strip paint and degrease driveways.

•Apply a high pressure spray to a small area and then check the surface for damage. If no damage is found, you can assume it is okay to continue cleaning.
