Applying Detergent with the Adjustable Nozzle

IMPORTANT: Use soaps designed specifically for pressure washers. Household detergents could damage the pump.

CAUTION

You must attach all hoses before you start the engine.

Starting the engine without all the hoses connected and without the water turned ON will damage the pump.

Damage to equipment resulting from failure to follow this instruction will void warranty.

To apply detergent, follow these steps:

1.Review use of adjustable nozzles.

2.Prepare detergent solution as required by job.

3.Place filter end of chemical injection hose into detergent container.

Usage Tips

For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle from 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning surface.

If you get spray nozzle too close, especially using high pressure mode, you may damage surface being cleaned.

DO NOT get closer than 6 inches when cleaning tires.

CAUTION

Keep the chemical injection tube from coming in contact with the hot muffler.

When inserting the filter into a detergent solution bottle, route the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.

4.Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode. Detergent cannot be applied with nozzle in high pressure position.

5.Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet. Check that high pressure hose is connected to spray gun and pump. Start engine.

6.Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower portion of area to be washed and work upward, using long, even, overlapping strokes.

7.Allow detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes before washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent surface from drying. DO NOT allow detergent to dry on (prevents streaking).

IMPORTANT: You must flush the chemical injection system after each use by placing the filter into a bucket of clean water, then run the pressure washer in low pressure for 1-2 minutes.
