OPERATION (CONTINUED)
Using the adjustable wand
WARNING! High-pressure jets can be dangerous
if subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at
persons, pets, live electrical equipment, or the
appliance itself.
1. The washer is equipped with an adjustable nozzle.
2. The water pressure can be adjusted from low pressure
(–) to high pressure (+) by turning the pressure
adjustment knob. The nozzle tip can be adjusted from
pencil spray (wide open tip) to fan spray (narrow tip)
by turning the nozzle tip adjustment knob.
WARNING! Do not adjust the nozzle while the trigger is squeezed. Failure to do so could
result in damage.
Working with detergent kit
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks can be solved with water alone, but for
most tasks cleaning with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal.
WARNING! Use only detergents specifically designed for use with pressure washers. DO
NOT USE household detergents, acids, alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents, flammable
material, or industrial grade solutions. These could damage the pressure washer.
CAUTION! Always test the detergent in an inconspicuous area before use.
1. Unscrew the top of detergent kit and fill the bottle with detergent.
2. Replace top on detergent kit.
3. Remove the wand from gun.
4. Attach detergent kit to gun.
5. Apply detergent so it thoroughly covers cleaning surface. Apply from bottom to top to prevent
detergent from sliding down and streaking.
6. Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a few minutes. This is a good time to use a brush to
lightly scrub heavily soiled areas. Never allow detergent to dry on the cleaning surface.
7. Remove detergent kit from gun and replace with the wand.
8. Rinse detergent from surface.
NOTE: Flush detergent kit with clear water following each use.
CAUTION! Damage may occur to painted surfaces if the detergent is allowed to dry on the
surface. Wash and rinse a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct
sunlight.
