Owner’s Manual

This pressure washer is intended for use only with liquid car wash detergents, 

developed specifically for pressure washers and with mild soaps. Only use chemicals 

compatible with the aluminum and brass parts. Powdered soaps may clog the injection 

system. Always use chemicals according to the  manufacturers directions. We assume 

no responsiblity for any damages caused by chemicals injected through this pressure 

washer.
1. Attach injection tube assembly to the detergent connection on the pump. Assembly 

    instruction(BELOW).

2. Pour the two kinds of detergents into the detergent bottles. It is recommend to have

    one detergent bottle filled with allpurpose detergent, and the other filled with a more

    specific cleaning detergent.

3. The indicator on the detergent dial shows the amount and the consumption of

    detergent Fig A.

4. Remove the high pressure nozzle from the wand and install the black injection nozzle.

    

The solution will automatically mix with the water and discharge through the nozzle.

NOTE: For certain models, if the engine throttle is not in the fast position, the injection

of the solution may be decreased or stopped.

CLEANING TECHNIQUES
When cleaning with the pressure washer, many cleaning tasks can be solved with water
alone, but for most tasks, it is advantageous to use a detergent. A detergeng ensures a
quick soaking of the dirt allowing the high pressure water to penetrate and remove the
dirt more effectively.
APPLICATION OF SOAP OR DEGREASER
1. Apply the solution to the dry work surface. On a vertical surface, apply horizontally
from side to side starting from bottom to avoid streaking.

NOTE:

 Wetting the surface first is not recommended, it dilutes the detergent and 

reduces its cleaning effects. Please disconnect the Detergent Hose from the Pump 

when do not use the detergent, and let the pressure washer run until you no longer 

notice detergent coming out of the wand.This will prevent detergent from gumming up 

the wand and reducing pressure for next use.
