Variable Pressure Wand Assembly
Models using variable pressure wands, grip spray gun
securely. Selection of high or low pressure is accompa
-
nied by turning the handle. Turn variable pressure
control handle counterclockwise to reduce pressure
and for applying soap through the brass soap nozzle
with detergent injector attached.
NOTE: High pressure nozzle must be inserted at end
of wand to obtain high pressure.
Detergents & General Cleaning
Techniques
WARNING: Some detergents may be
harmful if inhaled or ingested,
causing severe nausea, fainting or
poisoning. The harmful elements
may cause property damage or
severe injury.
AVERTISSEMENT: Certains détergents peuvent être
dangereux s'ils sont inhalés ou ingérés, provo- quant
de fortes nausées, des évanouissements et l'empoi
-
sonne- ment. Les éléments dangereux peuvent causer
des dommages à la propriété ou des blessures
graves.
ADVERTENCIA: Algunos detergentes pueden ser
dañinos si se inhalan o se ingieren, causando diarrea
severa, desmayos o envenenamiento. Los elementos
dañiños pueden causar daños a la propiedad o
lesiones graves.
STEP 1:
Use Landa detergent
designed specifically for pressure
washers. Household detergents could
damage the pump. Prepare detergent
solution as required by the manufac
-
turer. Fill a container with pressure
washer detergent. Place the filter end
of detergent suction tube into the
detergent container.
STEP 2:
Apply safety latch to spray
gun trigger. See page 11 for variable
pressure wand instructions.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be
applied using the high pressure
nozzle.
STEP 3:
With the motor running, pull trigger to operate
machine. Liquid detergent is drawn into the machine and
mixed with water. Apply detergent to work area. Do not
allow detergent to dry on surface.
IMPORTANT: You must flush the detergent injection
system after each use by placing the suction tube into
a bucket of clean water, then run the pressure washer
in low pressure for 1-2 minutes.
Thermal Pump Protection
NOTE: If you run your pressure washer for 3 minutes
without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, circulating
water in the pump can reach high temperatures. When
the water reaches this temperature, the pump protector
engages and cools the pump by discharging the warm
water onto the ground. This thermal device prevents
internal damage to the pump.
Cleaning Tips
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water. Place
detergent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and
apply to surface at low pressure (for best results, limit your
work area to sections approximately 6 feet square and
always apply detergent from bottom to top). Allow
detergent to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow
detergent to dry on surface. If surface appears to be
drying, simply wet down surface with fresh water. If
needed, use brush to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at high
pressure from top to bottom in an even sweeping motion
keeping the spray nozzle approximately 1 foot from
cleaning surface. Use overlapping strokes as you clean
and rinse any surface. For best surface cleaning action,
spray at a slight angle.
