Owner’s Manual

This pressure washer is intended for use only with liquid car wash detergents, developed

specifically for pressure washers and with mild soaps. Only use chemicals compatible with

the aluminum and brass parts. Powdered soaps may clog the injection system. Always

use chemicals according to the  manufacturers directions. We assume no responsiblity

for any damages caused by chemicals injected through this pressure washer.

1. Attach injection tube assembly to the detergent connection on the pump.

2. Open a container of chemicals and place next to the unit near the injection tube.

3. Visually inspect strainer at the end of the injection tube to verify that it is not clogged

4. Insert the injection tube into the container all the way to the bottom.

5. Remove the high pressure nozzle from the wand and install the black injection nozzle.

The solution will automatically mix with the water and discharge through the nozzle.

NOTE: For certain models, if the engine throttle is not in the fast position, the injection

of the solution may be decreased or stopped.

CLEANING TECHNIQUES

When cleaning with the pressure washer, many cleaning tasks can be solved with water

alone, but for most tasks, it is advantageous to use a detergent. A detergeng ensures a

quick soaking of the dirt allowing the high pressure water to penetrate and remove the

dirt more effectively.

APPLICATION OF SOAP OR DEGREASER

1. Apply the solution to the dry work surface. On a vertical surface, apply horizontally

from side to side starting from bottom to avoid streaking.

NOTE: Wetting the surface first is not recommended, it dilutes the detergent and

reduces its cleaning effects.

Please disconnect the Detergent Hose from the Pressure Washer when do not use

the soap or degreaser.

Operation

Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight to minimize the chances of the

chemical damaging painted surfaces. Damage may occur to painted surfaces if the

chemical is allowed to dry on the surface. Hold the nozzle far enough away from surface

to prevent damage to the surface.

2. Allow chemical to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing.

3. Rinse with clean water under high pressure. On a vertical surface, first rinse from

the bottom up, then rinse from top down. Hold nozzle 6 to 8 inches from the work surface

at a 45° angle using the flat spray as a peeling tool rather than a scrub brush.

APPLICATION OF WAX

1. Immediately after cleaning, apply wax. Place injection tube in container of wax.

2. Apply the wax sparingly in an even layer. Apply to wet surfaces from bottom up for even

distribution and to avoid streaking.

3. Remove the suction tube from the wax bottle rinse off the surplus wax.

NOTE: If surplus wax is not removed, a hazy finish may result.

4. Wipe dry to reduce water spotting.

END OF OPERATION

When you have completed use of chemical injection system, remove tube from container.

Continue to run in low pressure position and inject clean water through the tube and

injection system by placing end of tube in a container of clean water. Continue to run

until it is thoroughly cleaned.

Maintenance

CONNECTIONS

Connection on pressure washer hoses, gun and spray wand should be cleaned

regularly and lubricated with the manufacturers recommended grease to prevent leakage

and damage to the O-ring.

NOZZLE

Clogging of the nozzle causes the pump pressure to be too high, cleaning is immediately

required.

 

 

 

 

A nozzle cleaner must only be used when the spray

 

 

 

 

wand is disconnected from the gun or personal injury

    may 

occur.

1. Seperate the wand from the gun.
