NOZZLE TYPES
The pressure washer comes with five spray nozzles. Each nozzle is colour coded and delivers a specific spray pattern and pressure for a particular cleaning job. The size of the nozzle determines the size of the fan spray and the pressure out of the nozzle.
0o NOZZLE - RED
This nozzle delivers a pinpoint stream of pressurised water and is extremely powerful. It covers only a small area of cleaning. This nozzle should only be directed at surfaces that can withstand high pressure such as metal or concrete. DO NOT use this nozzle to clean wood.
14
Page 15
15o NOZZLE - YELLOW
This nozzle delivers a powerful 15o spray pattern for intense cleaning of small areas. This nozzle should only be used on areas and materials that can withstand high pressure.
25o NOZZLE - GREEN
This nozzle delivers a 25o spray pattern for intense cleaning of larger areas. This nozzle should only be used on areas and materials that can withstand pressure from this nozzle.
40o NOZZLE - WHITE
This nozzle delivers a 40o spray pattern and a less powerful stream of water. This nozzle can cover a wide area and should be used for most general cleaning jobs.
DETERGENT NOZZLE - BLACK
This nozzle is used to apply special detergents and cleaning solutions. This nozzle produces the weakest pressure stream of the five nozzles.

BEFORE USE
WARNING: STAND THE PRESSURE WASHER ON LEVEL GROUND WITH THE ENGINE SWITCHED OFF.
WARNING: THE OIL LEVEL SHOULD ONLY BE CHECKED WITH A COLD ENGINE. A HOT ENGINE WILL GIVE A FALSE READING.
IMPORTANT: The engine is supplied without any oil in it and must be filled to the correct level before starting for the first time, see below.
ENGINE OIL
1. Turn the oil filler cap anticlockwise and remove it from the engine, wipe the integral dipstick with a clean cloth.
2. Insert the oil filler cap back into place and then remove it again.
3. If the oil reads low on the dipstick, using the oil funnel add oil to the oil reservoir (Max 0.6L).
• We recommend the use of
SAE10W-30 oil.
• DO NOT overfill the oil reservoir.
4. Replace the oil filler cap.
NOTE: Running the engine with insufficient oil will cause engine damage.
NOTE: LOW OIL SENSOR: To prevent engine damage caused by an insufficient
amount of oil in the crankcase, the engine is equipped with a low oil sensor. If the oil is below the safe amount, the sensor will activate and will prevent the engine start up or will stop the engine running. If the pressure washer shuts off and the oil level is within specifications, check to see if the washer is sitting at an angle. Place on an even surface to correct this. If the engine fails to start, the oil level may not be sufficient to deactivate the sensor. Add oil as described above.
