WARNING: Some detergents
may be harmful if inhaled or in-
gested, causing severe nausea,
fainting or poisoning. The harm-
ful elements may cause prop-
erty damage or severe injury.
STEP 1: Use detergent designed
specifically for pressure wash-
ers. Household detergents could
damage the pump. Prepare deter-
gent solution as required by the
manufacturer. Fill a container with
pressure washer detergent. Place
the filter end of detergent suction
tube into the detergent container.
STEP 2: Apply safety latch to spray gun trigger.
Secure black detergent nozzle into quick coupler.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied using the Yellow
nozzle.
STEP 3: With the motor running, pull trigger to oper-
ate machine. Liquid detergent
is drawn into the machine
and mixed with water. Apply
detergent to work area. Do
not allow detergent to dry on
surface.
IMPORTANT: You must
flush the detergent injec-
tion system after each use by placing the suction
tube into a bucket of clean water, then run the
pressure washer in low pressure for 1-2 minutes.
THERMAL PUMP
PROTECTION
If you run your pressure washer for 2-3 minutes without
pressing the trigger on the spray gun, circulating water
in the pump can reach high temperatures. When the
water reaches this temperature, the pump protector
engages and cools the pump by discharging the warm
water onto the ground. This thermal device prevents
internal damage to the pump.
CLEANING TIPS
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water. Place de-
tergent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and
apply to surface at low pressure (for best results, limit
your work area to sections approximately 6 feet square
and always apply detergent from bottom to top). Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not
allow detergent to dry on surface. If surface appears
to be drying, simply wet down surface with fresh water.
If needed, use brush to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at
high pressure from top to bottom in an even sweeping
motion keeping the spray nozzle approximately 1 foot
from cleaning surface. Use overlapping strokes as you
clean and rinse any surface. For best surface cleaning
action spray at a slight angle.
Recommendations:
• Before cleaning any surface, an inconspicuous
area should be cleaned 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.
• Keep the spray nozzle a safe distance from the
surface you plan to clean. High pressure wash
a small area, then check the surface for dam-
age. If no damage is found, continue to pressure
washing.
CAUTION - Never use:
• Bleach, chlorine products and other corrosive
chemicals
• Liquids containing solvents (i.e., paint thinner,
gasoline, oils)
• Tri-sodium phosphate products
• Ammonia products
• Acid-based products
These chemicals will harm the machine and will dam-
age the surface being cleaned.
RINSING
It will take a few seconds for the detergent to clear.
Apply safety latch to spray gun. Remove black soap
nozzle from the quick coupler. Select and install the
desired high pressure nozzle.
NOTE: You can also stop
detergent from flowing by simply removing detergent
siphon tube from bottle.
