DETERGENTS & GENERAL CLEANING TECHNIQUES
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.
PRESSURE WASHER
STEP 1: Connect detergent injector to discharge nipple
on machine. Connect high pressure hose to injector
with quick coupler. (Check to make sure locking coupler
sleeves are in proper position before applying water
pressure).

THERMAL PUMP PROTECTION
If you run the motor on your pressure washer for 3-5
minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun,
circulating water in the pump can reach high temperatures. When the water reaches this temperature, the
pump protector engages and cools the pump by discharging the warm water onto the ground. This thermal
device prevents 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' 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' from cleaning surface. Use
overlapping strokes as you clean and rinse any surface.
For best surface cleaning action spray at a slight angle.
Filter
STEP 2: 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 safety latch on spray
gun engaged, secure black detergent nozzle into quick coupler.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied using a pressure nozzle.
STEP 4: 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.
IMPORTANT: You must ush 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.
*Kit injector sold separately.

9.807-625.0 • 8.919-015.0 • Rev. 1/17
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 may 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 or other corrosive chemicals
These chemicals will harm the machine and will damage the surface being cleaned.
RINSING
It will take a few seconds for the detergent to clear.
Apply safety latch to spray gun. Remove black soap
nozzle from the quick coupler. Select and install the
desired high pressure nozzle. NOTE: You can also stop
detergent from owing by simply removing detergent
siphon tube from bottle.

STORAGE
Pump Storage
CAUTION: Always store your pressure washer in a location where the
temperature will not fall below 32°F
(0°C). The pump in this machine is
susceptible to permanent damage if
frozen.
FREEZE DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY W A R RANTY.
If you must store your pressure washer in a location
where the temperature is below 32°F, you can minimize
the chance of damage to your machine by draining your
machine as follows:
1. Stop the pressure washer and detach supply hose
and high pressure hose. Squeeze trigger of spray
gun to drain all water from the wand and hose.
2. Restart pressure washer and let it run briey (about
5 seconds) until water no longer discharges from
the high pressure outlet.
