Using the adjustable spray wand

m

WARNING! 

High-pressure jets can be dangerous if 

subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at persons, 
pets, live electrical equipment, or the appliance itself.

1. 

The washer is equipped with an adjustable nozzle.

2. 

The water pressure can be adjusted from low pressure (–) 
to high pressure (+) by turning the pressure adjustment 
knob. The nozzle tip can be adjusted from pencil spray 
(wide open tip) to fan spray (narrow tip) by turning the 
nozzle tip adjustment knob (Fig. 13).

m

WARNING! 

Do not adjust the nozzle while the trigger 

is squeezed. Failure to do so could result in damage.

Recommended cleaning procedure

1. 

For additional cleaning power, a detergent spray  
bottle attachment (Model SPX1DT) is available as an  
add-on accessory for the SPX205E-XT-RM. Visit sunjoe.
com  
to purchase.

m

CAUTION! 

Only use detergents specifically 

recommended for use with pressure washers.

2. 

Load the bottle with a suitable, non-corrosive detergent 
and attach it the spray gun (Fig. 14).

3. 

With the nozzle tip adjusted to a low-pressure fan spray, 
apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry 
surface to be cleaned. Applying detergent in this manner 

will dissolve dirt most effectively.

 

NOTE: 

Wetting the surface first is not recommended as it 

dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.

4. 

Allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short 
time before rinsing with the pressure washer. Do not allow 
the detergent to dry on the surface.

Shutting down

1. 

Turn the switch to the OFF (0) position and unplug the 
power cord from the outlet.

2. 

Turn off the water source.

3. 

Hold the trigger to release water pressure.

4. 

Disconnect the garden hose from the water inlet on  
the unit.

5. 

Disconnect the high-pressure hose connection on the 
trigger gun handle.

6. 

Release the trigger and engage the gun safety lock.

m

WARNING! 

Turn off the water supply and squeeze the 

trigger to depressurize the unit. Failure to do so could result in 
personal injury due to discharge of high-pressure water.

Taking a break

If you are taking a break of five minutes or more between 

cleaning tasks:

1. 

Engage the gun safety lock (Fig. 12).

2. 

Turn the switch to the OFF (0) position.

3. 

Unplug the power cord from the outlet.

Storage

m

CAUTION! 

Always store your pressure washer in a 

location where the temperature will not fall below 32ºF (0ºC). 
The pump in this machine is susceptible to permanent damage 
if it freezes. 

FREEZE DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY THE 

WARRANTY.

•  Store the pressure washer indoors in a dry, covered area 

where it is not subject to adverse weather conditions.

• 

It is important to store this product in a frost-free area.

• 

Always empty water from all hoses, the pump, and the 
detergent bottle (if using) before storing.

m

CAUTION! 

The use of a pump protector is 

recommended to prevent cold weather damage during storage 
over the winter months.
