apply detergent, or to rinse after cleaning.
CAUTION:
NEVER change nozzles without engaging the
lock out on the gun and NEVER point the lance at
your face or at others. The Quick Connect collar
contains small springs that could eject the nozzle

Using the 25˚ nozzle, spray away from the target
surface for approximately 10 seconds to allow any
remaining detergent to be flushed from the hose.
