NOTICE:
The high pressure spray from your pressure washer
is capable of causing damage to surfaces such as wood, glass,
automobile paint, auto striping and trim, delicate objects
such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check the item to
be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to resist
damage from the force of spray.
How to Apply Chemicals/Cleaning Solvents
(Fig. A)
Applying chemicals or cleaning solvents is a low pressure
operation.
nOTE:
Use only soaps and chemicals designed for
pressure washer use.
Do not use bleach.
To Apply Chemicals:
1. Remove the cap from the detergent tank
12
and fill the
detergent tank with cleaning solvent. Replace cap on
deteregent tank.
nOTE:
For every 38 liters of water pumped
38 liters of chemical/cleaning solution will be used.
2. Install the black low pressure nozzle into the quick connect
fitting of the spray wand. See
how To Use spray Wand
paragraph in this section.
nOTE:
After squeezing the trigger
it will take approximately 5 seconds for the detergent
to appear.
3. After use of chemicals, fill the detergent tank with clean
water and draw clean water through chemical injection
system to rinse system thoroughly. If chemicals remain in
the pump it could be damaged. Pumps damaged due to
chemical residue will not be covered under warranty.
nOTE:
Chemicals and soaps will not siphon if the black soap
nozzle is not installed on the spray wand.
Starting (Fig. A, F, H–K)
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of injury, read the pressure
washer instruction manual and the engine instruction
manual before starting pressure washer.
DANGER:
Risk of fluid injection and laceration. When
using the high pressure setting,
DO NOT
allow the high
pressure spray to come in contact with unprotected skin,
eyes, or with any pets, animals, or people. Serious injury
will occur.
•
Your washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities
high enough to penetrate human and animal flesh,
which could result in amputation or other serious
injury. Leaks caused by loose fittings or worn or
damaged hoses can result in injection injuries. DO
NOT TREAT FLUID INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a
physician immediately!
DANGER: Carbon Monoxide. Using an engine
indoors can kill. Engine exhaust contains high levels
of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas you
cannot see or smell. You may be breathing CO even if
you do not smell engine exhaust.
•
Breathing exhaust fumes will cause serious injury or
death! Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an
odorless and deadly gas.
•
Operate pressure washer in a well-ventilated area.
Avoid enclosed areas such as garages, basements, etc.
•
Never operate unit in or near a location occupied by
humans or animals.
WARNING:
Risk of fire, asphyxiation and burning. Never
fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke
when filling fuel tank.
