pressure washer
approved
Use only detergents, degreasers, waxes and
other cleaning solutions that are designed
specifically for pressure washers. Cleaners in
this category will clearly state on the label that
they are meant for use in pressure washers. Do
NOT use any other type of cleaning solution in
your high-pressure washer. Never use bleach,
ammonia, any type of acid or hot water in your
appliance!
The suction tube
has become
disconnected,
clogged or kinked
Ensure the suction tube is not damaged and
is properly connected to the detergent nozzle.
Reconnect, clean or replace the tube as
needed.
Detergent nozzle is
clogged with debris
Clean the nozzle according to the instructions
provided in the Nozzle paragraph under the
Maintenance section of this manual.
Detergent to water
ratio
The pressure washer draws detergent at a
maximum 10:1 water to detergent ratio. Most
pressure washer detergents are concentrated
within this range so minimal adjustment of the
detergent nozzle metering valve is required. If
you feel you are using more detergent than is
required for the application, you can dilute the
detergent with regular tap water.
