DETERGENTS AND GENERAL OPERATING TECHNIQUES
PRESSURE WASHER
WARNING
STEP 2: Apply safety latch to spra y gun trigger. Secure
black detergent nozzle into quick coupler. NOTE: De-
tergent cannot be applied using the Yellow nozzle.
IMPORT ANT : You m ust flush the detergent injection
system after each use by placing the suction tube
into a bucket of clean water, then run the pressure
washer in low pressure for 1-2 minutes.
WARNING: Some detergents
may be harmful if inhaled or ingested, causing severe nausea,
fainting or poisoning. The harmful elements may cause property
damage or severe injury .
STEP 1: Use detergent designed
specifically for pressure washers.
Household detergents could damage the pump. Prepare detergent
solution as required by the manufacturer . Fill a container with pressure washer detergent. Place the
filter end of detergent suction tube
into the detergent container.
STEP 3: With the motor running, pull trigger to operate machine. Liquid detergent is
drawn into the machine and
mixed with water . Apply detergent to work area. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface.
THERMAL PUMP PROTECTION
water reaches this temperature, the pump protector
engages and cools the pump by discharging the warm
water onto the ground. This thermal device pre vents internal damage to the pump.
CLEANING TIPS
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water. Place detergent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and
apply to surface at low pressure (for best results, limit
your work area to sections approximately 6 f eet square
and always apply detergent from bottom to top). Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface. If surface appears to
be drying, simply wet down surface with fresh water. If
needed, use brush to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at
high pressure from top to bottom in an even sweeping
motion keeping the spray nozzle approximately 1 foot
from cleaning surface. Use overlapping strokes as you
clean and rinse any surface. For best surface cleaning
action spray at a slight angle.
Recommendations:
• Before cleaning any surface, an inconspicuous
area should be cleaned to test spray pattern and
distance for maximum cleaning results.
• If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping, use
extreme caution as pressure washer ma y remove
the loose paint from the surface.
• Keep the spray nozzle a safe distance from the
surface you plan to clean. High pressure wash a
small area, then check the surface for damage. If
no damage is found, continue to pressure washing.
CAUTION - Never use:
• Bleach, chlorine products and other corrosive
chemicals
These chemicals will harm the machine and will damage the surface being cleaned.
RINSING
• It will take a few seconds f or the detergent to clear .
Apply safety latch to spray gun. Remov e black soap
nozzle from the quick coupler . Select and install the
desired high pressure nozzle. NOTE: You can also
stop detergent from flowing by simply removing detergent siphon tube from bottle.
