capable of causing damage to surfaces such as wood, glass,
automobile paint, auto striping and trim, and delicate objects
such as flowers and shrubs. Before spraying, check the item
to be cleaned to assure yourself that it is strong enough to
resist damage from the force of the spray.

Preparing pressure cleaner unit for use
Warning!
Risk of fluid injection and laceration. When using
the high-pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high-pressure
spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with
any pets or animals. Serious injury will occur.
Warning!
Before operation:
u
Connect the water supply to the pressure cleaner. For in-
structions on connecting the water supply to the pressure
cleaner, please refer to Attaching Garden or Suction Hose
under Assembly and Adjustments.
u
Connect the pressure spray wand, soap bottle, or other
attachment.
For instructions on connecting the pressure spray wand,

Preparing pressure cleaner
Important:
Disengage the trigger lock-off (4),squeeze the
trigger (7) and hold the trigger for 30 seconds to purge the
system of air. If air is still found in the water stream, continue
to run water through the spray handle.
u
Disengage the trigger lock-off (4).

Cleaning a surface
Warning!
Risk of injury from spray. Always engage the trigger
lock when gun is not in use. Failure to do so could cause
accidental spraying.
u
To start the pressure cleaner, disengage the trigger lock-
off (4) and squeeze the trigger (7).
Note:
The best angle for spraying water against a cleaning
surface is 45°. Spraying head on tends to cause dirt particles
to embed in the surface. When working on vertical surfaces, it
is best to apply detergent starting at the bottom and working
upwards which will prevent the detergent from sliding down
and causing streaks.
u
To stop the pressure cleaner, release the trigger.
Note:
Excessive pump pressure may be the result of a
clogged nozzle or brass coupling.
Always turn off the pressure cleaner and remove the battery
before attempting to unclog a nozzle or brass coupler.
Warning!
Never draw from water that contains chemicals.
Only draw from fresh water sources.
Shutdown
u
To stop the pressure cleaner, release the trigger and
remove the battery.
u
Turn off water at the faucet.
u
Discharge residual pressure by squeezing the trigger ( 7 )
until no more water comes out of the spray wand ( 9 ).
u
Disconnect the garden hose from the water intake ( 3 )
and drain hose.
