Explanation
Washer Pump:
Increase the pressure of the water supply.
Engine:
Drive the washer pump
High Pressure Water Hose:
Carries the pressurized water from the pump to the gun and lance.
Gun:
Connects with lance to control water flow rate, direction, and pressure.
Lance:
Lance is equipped with a female quick fix-up on the end. This allows the user to quickly change out nozzle for
different spray patterns and change the soap nozzle for the low pressure and chemical/soap applications.
Chemical Hose:
Feeds cleaning agents into the pump to mix the pressurized water.
Thermal Relief Valve:
In an effort to prevent extreme damage, pumps are equipped with a thermal relief valve. This
valve will open when the temperature inside the pump rises too high. This valve will then release a gush of water in an
effort to lower the temperature inside the pump. Immediately after this occurs, the valve will close.
Chemical Injection System:
Mixes cleaners or cleaning solvents with the pressurized water to improve cleaning
effectiveness.
Water Supply:
All pressure washers must have a source of water. The minimum flow rate requirement of water
supply must not fall below 19 LPM (liters per minute) at 20PSI
Pressure Regulator:
The pressure setting is preset at the factory to achieve optimum pressure and cleaning. If you
need to lower the pressure, it can be accomplished by these methods.
Back away from the surface to be cleaned.
The
future away you are, the less the pressure will be on the surface to be cleaned.
By Pass Mode:
In bypass Mode, the pump is reticulating water because the trigger of the spray gun is not pulled. If
unit is left in bypass mode for more than two (2) minutes, the water temperature will rise to a dangerous level and
could damage internal components of the pump. Any damage to pump due to these causes will not be covered under
warranty.
Nozzle:
The size of the nozzle determines the size of the fan spray and the pressure out of the nozzle. The 0°, 15°,
25°and 40°nozzles are high pressure nozzle, the chemical nozzle 84°is a low pressure nozzle.
0°nozzle – red.
This nozzle delivers a pinpoint stream and is extremely powerful. It covers a very small area of
cleaning. This nozzle should only be used on surface that can withstand this high pressure such as metal or concrete.
Do not use on wood
15°nozzle - Yellow.
This nozzle delivers a powerful 15 degree spray pattern for intense cleaning of small areas. This
nozzle should only be used on areas that can withstand the high pressure from this nozzle.
25°nozzle - Green.
This nozzle delivers a powerful 25 degree spray pattern. This nozzle should only be used on areas
that can withstand the high pressure from this nozzle.
