are customized for pressure washer use on specific cleaning
tasks. Pressure washer detergents are as thick as water.
Using thicker detergents – like dish soap – will clog the
chemical injection system.
NOTICE
Use only detergents designed for pressure washers.
Do not use household detergents, acids, alkalines, bleaches,
solvents, flammable material, or industrial grade solutions,
which can damage the pump or cause property damage.
Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. Prepare
cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle.
Always test in an inconspicuous area before beginning.
You can effectively clean surfaces by combining the chemical
action of detergents with high pressure rinses. On vertical
surfaces, apply the detergent starting at the bottom and work
your way upward. This method prevents the detergent from
sliding down and causing streaks. Begin high pressure rinsing
at the bottom and work your way upward. On particularly tough
stains, use a brush in combination with detergents and high
pressure rinsing.
1. Insert the detergent suction hose (end with filter) into the
detergent bottle or container.
2. Install the quick connect detergent nozzle (black) in the
spray wand. Detergent will only be drawn through the
pump when the black detergent nozzle is attached to the
end of the wand.
3. Be sure water supply is on. Start the engine. Pull the
trigger gun to spray the detergent solution.
WARNING
NEVER use bleach. It will damage the pump and void the
warranty.
NOTICE
The trigger gun will only draw detergent when the black
quick connect nozzle is installed in the wand.
NOTICE
When spraying detergent, the detergent will be diluted 1:12.
Approximately 21oz. (0.6 L) of detergent will be consumed
for every minute sprayed.
System flush
After using detergents, flush the suction system by placing the
detergent suction tube into a bucket of clean water.
WARNING
NEVER turn the water supply off before turning the engine
off.
Depressurize System
To depressurize, turn engine off, turn water supply off and
squeeze gun trigger for at least 15 seconds after engine is
turned off.
WARNING
NEVER disconnect the high pressure discharge hose from
the machine while the system is pressurized.
To reduce the risk of bodily injury or property damage, always
follow this procedure whenever spraying is stopped, when work
is completed, and before checking or repairing any part of the
system.
1. Engage the trigger gun lock out.
2. Turn the unit off.
3. Shut off the water supply.
4. Disengage the trigger safety latch and trigger the gun to
relieve pressure.
5. Re-engage the trigger safety latch.
6. Before overnight storage, long term storage, or
transporting unit, disconnect the water supply and turn off
the fuel supply valve.
Operating Tips
CAUTION
Never operate your pressure washer without water.
CAUTION
Never connect your pressure washer to a hot water supply.
Connecting your pressure washer to a hot water source will
significantly reduce the life of the pump and will void the
warranty.
