6. Release the safety lock, then press the trigger for a few
seconds until the water flow is steady. Operating the
pressure washer in this manner will allow air to escape
and discharge residual pressure in the hose (Figs. 13 – 14).
7. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position to start the
pressure washer (Fig. 15).
8. When re-starting the motor, always keep the trigger
pressed.
NOTE: The motor only runs when the trigger is operated
and shuts off when the trigger is released.

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.

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. 16).

WARNING!
Do not adjust the nozzle while the trigger
is squeezed. Failure to do so could result in damage.
Working with Detergents
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks
can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning
with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal.
m
WARNING!
Use only detergents specifically designed
for use with pressure washers, such as Sun Joe
®
HOUSE +
DECK WASH (SPX-HDC1G), Sun Joe
®
SNOW FOAM AUTO
WASH (SPX-FCS1G), or Sun Joe
®
HEAVY DUTY CLEANER
(SPX-APC1G).
DO NOT USE household detergents, acids,
alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions. These could damage the pressure
washer. Many detergents may require mixing prior to use.
Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on the solution
bottle.
