ASSEMBLY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Working with detergent ensures a quick soaking of the dirt, and allows the high-
pressure water to penetrate and remove the dirt more effectively. Always spray
detergent on a dry surface, do not pre-soak area. Wetting the surface first dilutes the
detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.
To apply detergents you must be operating at low pressure. This provides a gentle
application of detergent, with the pressure equivalent to the lowest garden hose. The
high-pressure setting is used for cleaning; you cannot apply detergents when working
at high pressure. Always test detergent in an inconspicuous area before use.
CAUTION
Only use cleaning detergents recommended for pressure washers.

(If you are not using detergent, go directly to Step 2.) When you have finished using the
detergent injection system, fill detergent bottle with clean water. Siphon water at low
pressure for one minute so that all detergent is flushed through system.
Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Turn the switch to “OFF” (0) position.
Press trigger to release any remaining water pressure.

Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing. Do not allow
detergent to dry on surface.
Rinse with clean water under high pressure. On a vertical surface, rinse from the bottom
up, then rinse from the top down to avoid streaking. Hold nozzle 6-8” (15-20 cm) from
the work surface, at a 45° angle.
When you have finished using the detergent injection system, fill detergent bottle with
clean water. Siphon water at low pressure for one minute, so that all detergent is flushed
through system. Remove detergent bottle, and rinse it until it is thoroughly cleaned.
CAUTION
Damage may occur to painted surface if chemical is allowed to dry on surface.
Wash and rinse a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct
sunlight.
