Snapper 2400 PSI Pressure Washer
How to Use the Turbo Nozzle
The turbo nozzle rotates the high pressure stream in a rapid circular pattern.The high pressure spray is most effective when the tip of the nozzle extension is held between 8 to 24 inches from the surface being cleaned.
Always start the turbo nozzle at a distance, gradually getting closer to the surface until you get the cleaning force you want.
WARNING! The turbo nozzle produces an extremely high pressure spray which is capable of removing paint and cutting holes through surfaces if held too close. Always make sure the surface you will clean will not be damaged by the high pressure spray by testing in a hidden area.
NOTE: You cannot apply detergent with the turbo nozzle.
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.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
•Review the use of adjustable nozzles.
•Prepare the detergent solution as required by the job.
•Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube into the detergent container.
CAUTION! Keep the detergent siphoning tube from coming in contact with the hot muffler.
•Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle in high pressure position.
•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.
•Apply the detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower portion of area to be washed and work upward, using long, even, overlapping strokes.
•Allow the detergent to "soak in" for
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
Pressure Washer Rinsing
WARNING! Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable location. Pressure in a running washer builds as you climb.When you press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray could cause you to fall.The high pressure spray could also cause you to fall if you are too close to the cleaning surface.
For Rinsing:
•Slide the nozzle backward to high pressure, press the trigger and wait for the detergent to clear.
NOTE: You can also stop detergent from flowing by simply removing detergent siphoning tube from bottle.
•Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you plan to spray.
•Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check the surface for damage. If no damage is found, it is okay to continue cleaning.
•Start at the top of the area to be rinsed, working down with same overlapping strokes as you used for washing and applying detergent.
