Check Spray Gun
Examine the hose connection to the spray gun and make
sure it is secure. Test the trigger by pressing the red
button and making sure the trigger “springs back” into
place when you release it. You should not be able to press
the trigger without pressing the red button. Replace spray
gun immediately if it fails any of these tests.
Spray Tip Maintenance
A pulsing sensation felt while squeezing the spray gun
trigger may be caused by excessive pump pressure. The
principal cause of excessive pump pressure is a spray tip
clogged or restricted with foreign materials, such as dirt,
etc. To correct the problem, immediately clean the spray
tip following these instructions:
1. Shut OFF engine and turn off water supply.
2. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction, press
red button and squeeze spray gun trigger to release
retained high water pressure.
3. Remove spray tip from end of nozzle extension.
4. Use a small paper clip to free any foreign material
clogging or restricting spray tip (A).
5. Remove nozzle extension from spray gun.
6. Using a garden hose, remove additional debris by
back flushing water through nozzle extension. Back
flush between 30to 60 seconds.
7. Reinstall spray tip into nozzle extension.
8. Reconnect nozzle extension to spray gun.
9. Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet.
