installation & preparation
nozzle reView:
Various nozzles may be quick-connected into the end of the wand to change
the spray pattern or use the detergent feature. When using Quick Connects
(Q.C.), be certain the connection is securely locked. If not, the high pressure
water may shoot the nozzle from the wand, causing severe injury or serious
damage. To determine spray fan, refer to the actual number stamped on
the nozzle. The first two digits indicate the spray fan in degrees, i.e.; 00=0°,
15=15°, 25=25°, 6540°=detergent/low pressure.
. the 0° nozzle (red) : This is a blasting nozzle. It delivers a very
concentrated stream of water. Be cautious when using the straight narrow
stream. It is not recommended for use on painted or wood surfaces,
or items attached with adhesive backings. Uses: Removing weeds
from sidewalk cracks, stubborn stains from concrete, masonry, aluminum
and steel, caked mud from equipment, and cleaning lawn mower
undersides.
2. the 15° nozzle (yellow) : This is a chiseling nozzle. The spray
should be directed at a 45° angle to the surface and used like a scraper
to remove paint, grease and dirt. Uses: Surface preparation (removing
mildew stains and paint chips).
3. the 25° nozzle (green) : This is a flushing nozzle. This pattern is best
suited for flushing dirt, mud, and grime. Uses: Wet sweeping leaves from
walks, curbs and driveways, cleaning stable floors, washing swimming
pool bottoms, degreasing engines.
4. the 65° nozzle (blacK) : This is a low pressure detergent application
nozzle. This broad spray pattern distributes solution over vast areas
under low pressure. Uses: Detergent application, misting or rinsing.
