Quick-Connect Nozzles

Four colour-coded quick-connect nozzles are
included with the pressure washer:

Red:

 

This nozzle produces a high-pressure

 

pencil-point spray (0˚) ideal for removing

 stubborn 

dirt.

Yellow:

  This nozzle produces a high-pressure

 

flat spray (15˚) suitable for cleaning

 

large surface areas.

Green:

  This nozzle produces a high-pressure

 

flat spray (25˚) suitable for cleaning

 

larger surface areas.

Black:

  This nozzle produces a low-pressure

 

spray that must be used for application

 of 

detergents.

 CAUTION: 

The pencil-point spray (0˚) is very

  aggressive. For most cleaning applications, the
  flat spray nozzles (15˚ and 25˚) should be used
  to avoid damage to the surface being sprayed. 

 NOTE: 

The intensity of the spray increases as 

  you move the lance closer to the surface.

 NOTE: 

When inserting or removing the spray  

  nozzles from the rubber grommet (located on 
  the handle) use a twisting action so the rubber 
  grommet does not disengage from the hole.

Changing Nozzles

 

CAUTION: 

When installing or removing a spray

  nozzle, always do so with the water turned OFF
  at the source and the engine turned OFF.

 CAUTION: 

Your pressure washer operates at fluid pressures and velocities high enough to cause 

  property damage. Before cleaning any surface, choose an inconspicuous area to test spray pattern 
  and distance for maximum cleaning results. If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping, use extreme 
  caution as pressure washer may remove the loose paint from the surface.
