After you have applied detergent, scour the surface and rinse it clean as follows:

1.Apply trigger lock to spray gun.

2.Remove black chemical nozzle from nozzle extension.

3.Select and install desired high pressure nozzle following instructions “How to Use Spray Tips”.

4.Keep spray gun a safe distance from the area you plan to spray.

Wash and Rinse Surface WARNING

High pressure spray could cause you to fall if you are too close to the cleaning surface.

Keep spray nozzle between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning surface.

Operate this unit on a stable surface.

Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable location.

Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray to avoid injury if gun kicks back.

5.Adjust spray pressure by sliding variable pressure contol lever left or right, as shown in Figure 14 on page 10.

6.Apply a high pressure spray to a small area and then check the surface for damage. If no damage is found, you can assume it is okay to continue rinsing.

Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube

If you used the detergent siphoning tube, you must flush it with clean water before stopping the engine.

3.Flush for 1-2 minutes.

4.Shut off engine.

IMPORTANT: Simply shutting OFF engine will not release pressure in the system. When the engine has shut down, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to relieve the pressure in the hose.

Automatic Cool Down System

(Thermal Relief)

If you run the engine on your pressure washer for

3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, circulating water in the pump can reach temperatures above 125°F.The system engages to cool the pump by discharging the warm water onto the ground.
