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.

1. 

Remove the cap from the detergent tank and fill the tank 

with detergent (Fig. 17). 

 NOTE: 

Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. 

Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on the solution 

bottle. 

2. 

Install the soap nozzle (black) on the spray wand (Fig. 16).

3. 

Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate 

the unit. The liquid detergent will automatically mix with 

water and be discharged through the nozzle.

m

CAUTION! 

Always test the detergent in an 

inconspicuous area before use.

4. 

Turn the detergent dial to adjust the suction volume of the 

detergent solution (Fig. 18).

5. 

Apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry 

surface to be cleaned.

  NOTE:

 Wetting the surface first is not recommended as it 

dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.

6. 

Allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short 

time before rinsing. Do not allow the detergent to dry on 

the surface.

7. 

Upon completion of detergent application, detach the 

detergent tank to clean by removing the two screws that 

used to fix the detergent tank (Fig. 19). 

8. 

Run clean water through the detergent tube to remove any 

remaining detergent. Then, remove and store for later use.

m

CAUTION! 

Damage may occur to painted surfaces if 

the detergent is allowed to dry on the surface. Wash and rinse 

a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in 

direct sunlight.

m

CAUTION! 

Failure to follow these cleaning instructions 

will cause the injection system to become clogged and 

inoperable.

Rinsing with the Pressure Washer

3.

nozzle while pulling back on the quick-connect collar.
