This high pressure washer is suitable for
non-professional use. The working
temperature must range between 40°F
and 120 °F. The machine is supplied with
a trigger gun, equipped with a trigger
handle to offer a comfortable working
position.
The high pressure washer is suitable for
washing with cold water only. The water
that you use for the pressure washer
must not be dirty, sandy or contain any
corrosive chemical products.
The pressure washer may be used to
wash shutters, doors, tiles, cars, decks,
campers, etc., where high water pressure
is necessary to remove dirt.
With the detergent tank, the pressure
washer can be used to apply a thick
coating of aerated detergent to the areas
being cleaned .
When using the pressure washer we
recommend the use of personal safety
items to reduce the risk of accidental
injury.

Using the Drain Snake With the
Trigger Gun
The drain snake is used with the trigger
gun to help clean blockages in
sewer/waster piping by the use of a
high pressure water jet and turbulence.
Attach the drain snake onto the trigger
gun nozzle and turn clockwise to lock
as you would for the lances. (Fig. 16)

minimum 4” diameter, ceramic pipe or
cast iron pipe.

INDOORS. OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
CAUTION
Safety
Lock
When you wish to stop using the
pressure washer temporarily, make sure
that the safety lock has been engaged to
avoid any accidental operation. (Fig. 12)
Fig. 12
The angle of the water on the fan jet
lance may be adjusted between 0° and
60° by turning the nozzle adjuster
counter-clockwise for a wider angle or
clockwise for a narrower angle. (Fig. 13 &
Fig. 14) Always make sure that the
"On/Off' switch is in the "Off" position
before changing the angle of the water
jet. It is also recommended that the
trigger gun safety lock be engaged as
well. The adjustable fan jet lance allows
you to use any variety of spray pattern
from a full fan spray to a direct stream
spray. When using the pressure washer
to clean wood decks, siding, vehicles,
etc., always start using the fan spray and
begin spraying from a minimum 36" away
to avoid damaging the surface of the
material that you are cleaning. Always
clear the area that you will be cleaning of
people, pets and objects.

Using Detergent with the Pressure
Washer
We recommend using the brush or the
adjustable fan jet lance when you wish
to use the detergent with your pressure
washer. To use the adjustable fan jet
lance, hold the lance in your hand and
pull out the front part of the nozzle. (Fig.
17)
Add detergent to the detergent tank and
insert the feed tube into the detergent
tank through the removable detergent
tank lid. Make sure that the feed tube
goes all the way to the bottom of the
detergent tank.
If you do not need to use detergent,
remove the feed tube from the
detergent tank.
CAUTION
Introduce nozzle into pipe opening
before pulling trigger. Do
NOT
apply
water pressure when drain snake is not
in pipe. Whip effect may cause serious
injury to operator or bystander.

Using the High Pressure Lance
The high pressure lance is capable of
cleaning most areas around the garden
or on building work but using detergent is
useful when cleaning automobiles or
other painted finishes.
Using Brush With the Trigger Gun
The brush is used with the trigger gun.
Push the brush onto the trigger gun
nozzle and turn clockwise to lock as
you would for the lances. (Fig. 15) the
brush may be used for washing cars,
boats, windows and other similar items.
The brush operates at open orifice
pressure so it will not direct a stream of
water.
