•Squeeze trigger on the spray gun to relieve pressure in the hose.

NOTE: A small amount of water will squirt out when you release the pressure.

How To Use the Adjustable Nozzle

Applying Detergent with the Adjustable Nozzle

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

IMPORTANT: 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.

To apply detergent, follow these steps:

•Review the use of the adjustable nozzle.

•Prepare detergent solution as required by the job.

•Hang the detergent solution container on the hook attached to the handle.

•Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube into the detergent container.

CAUTION! When inserting the filter into the detergent container, route the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.

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

•Attach the nozzle extension to the spray gun. Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle in high pressure position.

•Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting from the bottom and working up.

•Allow the detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes before rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent

surface from drying.

•Start at lower portion of area to be washed and work upward, using even overlapping strokes.

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