How to Stop Your Electric Pressure Washer
The electric pressure washer motor runs only when the
trigger is engaged. To stop the electric pressure washer
and turn off the motor:
1. Release spray gun trigger.
2. Turn master ON/OFF switch to OFF (0) position.
NOTICE
Releasing the trigger will shut off the motor but
does not shut off electrical power to the unit.
3. Turn off water supply.
4. ALWAYS point spray gun in a safe direction, press
trigger lock button and squeeze trigger to relieve built
up pressure in the unit.
5. Disconnect GFCI plug from outlet.
How to Use Spray Tips
The quick–connect on the spray wand allows you
to switch between four different quick connect spray
tips. Spray tips can be changed while pressure washer
is running once spray gun trigger lock is engaged.
Follow these instructions to change spray tips:
1. Pull back collar on quick–connect and pull current
spray tip off. Store spray tips in holder provided on the
spray wand.

water, select turbo spray tip (if equipped).

cleaning such as home siding, brick patios, wood
decks, driveways and sidewalks, garage floors,
etc., select 15° yellow spray tip.
•
For gentle cleaning of cars/trucks, boats, RV’s,
