ASSEMBLY
To protect the coupler and lance during shipping these
parts are shipped strapped to the extension pole.
All Giraffe wands require some final assembly.
To complete the assembly:
1. Using thread sealant, connect the hose to the
brass adapter.
2. Remove the two screws from the brass adapter
and slide the brass adapter into the aluminum
wand. Be sure the angle of the lance bends
away from the location of the gun on the wand.
3. Tighten the two screws into the brass adapter.
THE EXTENSION WAND IS NOW READY FOR USE.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Read, understand, and follow ALL safety guidelines and operation instructions prior to use.
To use your Giraffe HD extension wand:
Connect the outlet of your pressure washer to the inlet port of the trigger gun of the Giraffe HD
extension wand using appropriate quick couplers or fittings rated to handle high pressure.
Do NOT bypass, disable, or remove the trigger gun.
The Giraffe HD extension wand may be used fully retracted or fully extended or at any detent in
between. Caution must be used when the wand is extended as the reaction force of the nozzle
spraying will cause the wand to flex. Make absolutely certain that there are no power lines or
sources of electrical power within 10 feet of the lance at any time.
Contact with power transmission lines can cause fatal electrocution!
Caution: Do not extend or retract your Giraffe HD extension wand while spraying or while under
pressure. Stop the equipment and relieve any pressure before making adjustments to the exten-
sion wand or changing nozzles.
To extend the wand:
Press the thumb lock and pull the wand out to the desired length. Release the thumb lock to
hold the wand at the desired length.
To retract the wand:
Press the thumb lock and slide the extension segment into the wand until the desired length is
reached and release the thumb lock to hold the extension segments in place.
