Using Nozzles
Before beginning any cleaning task, determine the best nozzle
for the job. Each of the nozzles has a different spray pattern.
The nozzle patterns are 40˚ (for gentle cleaning), 25˚ (for all-
purpose cleaning) and 0˚ (for spot cleaning or hard-to-reach
areas).
m
CAUTION!
NEVER change nozzles without engaging
the safety lock on the trigger gun.

WARNING!
High-pressure jets can be dangerous if
subject to misuse. The jet must not be directed at persons,
pets, live electrical equipment, or the appliance itself.
This electric pressure washer is equipped with three Quick-
Connect nozzles that easily snap onto the Quick-Connect
collar of the spray wand.
To connect a nozzle to the spray wand:
1. Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water supply.
Pull the trigger to release the water pressure.
2. Engage the safety lock on the trigger gun.
3. Pull back the brass Quick-Connect collar and insert the
desired nozzle into the collar. Release the collar to lock the
nozzle into place (Fig. 13).
To disconnect a nozzle from the spray wand:
1. Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water supply.
Pull the trigger to release water pressure.
2. Engage the safety lock on the trigger handle.
3. Pull back the brass Quick-Connect collar and remove the
nozzle.

WARNING!
Do not make changes to the nozzle while
the trigger is engaged. Doing so could result in damage to the
pressure washer or injury to the user.

Working with Detergents
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks
can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning
with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal.
m
WARNING!
Use only detergents specifically designed
for use with pressure washers, such as Sun Joe
®
HOUSE +
DECK WASH (SPX-HDC1G), Sun Joe
®
SNOW FOAM AUTO
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. Pull the foam cannon out from the rear bracket (Fig. 14).
2. Twist counter-clockwise to remove the spray nozzle.
Fill the foam cannon bottle or mix as recommended
according to the detergent instructions, before replacing
the spray nozzle back onto the bottle (Fig. 15).
