HOW TO USE WAND

Risk of injection or injury to person. Do not direct discharge
stream toward persons, unprotected skin, eyes, or with any

pets or animals. Serious injury can occur.

DO NOT attempt to change nozzles while pressure washer is
running. Turn engine off before changing nozzles.

Your pressure washer is equipped with up to five spray nozzles. Each is color
coded and delivers a specific spray pattern for a particular cleaning purpose. The
size of the nozzle determines the size of the fan spray and the pressure out of the
nozzle. The 0º, 15º, and 40º nozzles are high pressure nozzles. The chemical
nozzle is a low pressure nozzle.

The nozzles are housed in receptacles on the panel of the
pressure washer handle. Color squares on the panel
identify nozzle location and spray pattern.

To change quick connect nozzles:

1.  Pull quick connect coupler back

and insert nozzle.

2. 

Release quick connect coupler

and twist nozzle to make

sure it is secure in coupler.

0º nozzle - Red.

This nozzle delivers a pinpoint stream

and is extremely powerful. It covers a very small area of
cleaning. This nozzle should only be used on surfaces
that can withstand this high pressure such as metal or
concrete. Do not use on wood.

15º nozzle - Yellow.

This nozzle delivers a powerful 15

degree spray pattern for intense cleaning of small areas.
This nozzle should only be used on areas that can
withstand the high pressure from this nozzle.

40º nozzle - White.

This nozzle delivers a 40 degree spray

pattern and a less powerful stream of water. It covers a wide
area of cleaning. This nozzle should be used for most general
cleaning jobs.

Chemical nozzle - Black.

This nozzle is used to apply

chemicals or cleaning solutions. It has the least powerful
stream.
