TO MOVE THE MACHINE

TO STORE THE MACHINE

Use only detergents designed for pressure washers; house- hold detergents, acids, alkalines, bleaches, solvents, flam- mable material, or industrial grade solutions can damage the pump. Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. Prepare cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle.

Place the injection hose in the bottom of the detergent bottle / container.

Install the black nozzle on the spray wand.

Spray the detergent on a dry surface using long, even, overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow detergent to dry on the surface.

Before shutting off the engine:

Place the injection hose in a bucket of clean water.

Flush for 1 - 2 minutes (spray clear water through the spray wand).

Shut off the engine.

NOTE: Shutting OFF ( O ) the engine will not relieve pressure in the system. Pull trigger to release water pressure.

RINSING WITH THE PRESSURE WASHER

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

Engage the lock out on the wand by pushing up on the lock out until it clicks into the slot.

Remove 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 machine.

Select the right nozzle for the job:

Use lower pressure nozzle (green) to wash items such as a car or boat.

Use higher pressure nozzle for jobs such as stripping paint and degreasing the driveway. When using these nozzles, test a small area first to avoid surface damage.

Start at the top of the area to be rinsed and work down, overlapping the strokes.
