coupler on the end of the wand. (Figure 9a)
Figure 9a
3. Release the collar, making sure it springs back and re-seats to its original
(non-retracted) position. (Figure 9b).
Check the connection by pulling on
the nozzle to ensure a tight connection -- if correctly inserted, nozzle will
rotate but not pull out.
WARNING :
Make sure the nozzle is correctly inserted. Sprayer
nozzle can become a projectile and cause serious personal injury or
property damage if not properly connected to the spray gun. Do not
attempt to use different types of nozzles that may not fit the coupler.

Step 2. Set Up for Chemical Spray (if desired)
Using the proper cleaning chemical for the application can speed up cleaning jobs tremendously.
Your pressure washer is equipped with a quick connect chemical injector, which siphons
cleaning chemicals into a low-pressure washer spray downstream of the pump. Adequate suction
pressure is created
only when the low pressure (black) spray nozzle is used.
The introduction of cleaning chemicals via the chemical injector affords the following advantages:
