needed — simply turn key to first position. Glow
plug light will illuminate. When light goes out, turn
key to start (second) position.

Do not start machine with burner switch on.
8. To apply detergent, place detergent pick-up tube
into a container of detergent and turn the detergent
valve counterclockwise.

to lower the pressure and raise the temperature.
General Washing Techniques
1. Hold spray nozzle approximately one foot from the
surface being cleaned. Spray at an angle to get
under the material and lift it off.
2. When washing large objects, use detergent injector
to apply detergent. Start washing from the bottom
and work up. Better detergent economy and faster
results will be obtained by allowing the detergent to
set 5-10 minutes. After washing, rinse from the top
down.
3. Cleaning heavy dirt or material away with a hard
stream of clear water is recommended before
using a cleaning agent.
