NOZZLE MAINTENANCE

If the nozzle becomes restricted or clogged with foreign

materials, such as dirt, excessive pump pressure may develop. A partially clogged nozzle can cause a pulsing sensation during use. This generally is not a pump relat- ed problem, but rather a clogged or partiallyrestricted nozzle.

If the nozzle becomes clogged or partially restricted, immediately clean the nozzle with the kit includedwith your pressure washer by followingthese instructions:

Shut off the engine and turn off the water supply.

Separate the wand from the gun.

Rotate to stream setting.

Remove nozzle from the end of the wand using a 2mm or 5/64 allen wrench (like the one includedin the kit).

Insertwire intonozzle and turn back and forth to clear obstruction.

Use the wire included in the kitor a small paper clip to

free the foreign materials cloggingor restrictingthe nozzle.

Remove additionaldebris by back flushing water sup- ply through wand. Back flush between 30 to 60 sec- onds. Turn wand to stream spray and move nozzle from low to high pressure while flushing.

!

Reinstall nozzle into wand. DO NOT overtighten.

Reconnect wand extension to spray gun.

Reconnect the water supply, turn ON the water, and start the engine.

Test the pressure washer by operating with nozzle in the high and the low pressure positions.
