CONNECTING THE HOSES
The power washer comes equ(ppea wittl an air hose connector that is designed for use with air compres-
sore having a pressure rstief valve or a pressure switch.
Some small, limited capacity compressors OlD not t_ave a pressure relief valve or a pressure switch. In this situation, a bleeder type air hose connector is required. One has been supplied with your power washer and is located at the end of the 10'chemical draw hose. It is identical to the non.bleeder con-
hector, except for a tiny hole located on its side. This hole will relieve excess air pressure,
