SELECTING THE RIGHT NOZZLE FOR THE JOB
To prevent damage to your surface and to select an
appropriate nozzle size for your application, always start with lowest pressure
nozzle size (White) and continue changing to the higher nozzle size until the
best work result is achieved.
The Waterblaster comes furnished with five spray nozzles. Each nozzle is color
coded and delivers a specific spray pattern and pressure for a particular cleaning
job. The size of the nozzle determines the size of the fan spray and the pressure out
of the nozzle.
0° Nozzle – Red:
This nozzle delivers a pinpoint stream of pressurized
water and is extremely powerful. It covers only a small area of cleaning. This
nozzle should only be directed at surfaces that can withstand high pressure
such as metal or concrete. Do not use this nozzle to clean wood.
The Waterblaster nozzles are stored in receptacles on a panel mounted to the han-
dle of the washer. Colors on the panel identify nozzle location and spray panel.
NOZZLES TO SPRAY WAND
Never place hands in front of nozzle. Never grasp hose or fittings during
Waterblaster operation.
Never attempt to attach or remove spray wand or hose
fittings while Waterblaster system is pressurized.
Turn off waterblaster, release pressure by pulling gun trigger then lock the
gun trigger
before attempting to change pressure nozzles.

cals and cleaning solutions. This nozzle produces the weakest pressure
stream of the five nozzles.
15° Nozzle – Yellow:
This nozzle delivers a powerful 15 degree spray
pattern for intense cleaning of small areas. This nozzle should only be
used on areas and materials that can withstand high pressure.
25° Nozzle – Green:
This nozzle delivers a 25 degree spray pattern for
intense cleaning of larger areas. This nozzle should only be used on
areas that can withstand pressure from this nozzle.
40° Nozzle – White:
This nozzle delivers a 40 degree spray pattern and
a less powerful stream of water. This nozzle can cover a wide area and
should be used for most general cleaning jobs.
