Using the Nozzles
Before beginning any cleaning task, determine the best nozzle
for the job. Each nozzle has a different spray pattern. The
nozzle patterns are 40˚ (for gentle cleaning), 25˚ (for all-
purpose cleaning), 15˚ (for tough jobs), and 0˚ (for spot
cleaning or hard-to-reach areas) .
m
CAUTION!
NEVER change nozzles without locking the
safety lock on the trigger handle.

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 cordless pressure washer is equipped with four (4) 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, remove the bucket or shut
off the water supply. Pull the trigger to release water
pressure.
2. Lock the safety lock on the trigger handle by pushing on
the safety lock until it
clicks
into the slot.
3. Pulling the quick-connect collar backwards, at the same
time, snap the desired nozzle onto the quick-connect
collar until it
clicks
into place, then release the quick-
connect collar (Fig. 22).
To disconnect a nozzle from the spray wand once the cleaning
job is complete:
4.
Turn off the pressure washer and remove the water
bucket/shut off the water supply. Pull the trigger to release
water pressure.
5. Lock the safety lock on the trigger handle by pushing on
the safety lock until it
clicks
into the slot.

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. Remove the spray wand attachment from the trigger gun.
2. Remove the soap dispenser sprayer from the bottle and
fill with mixed detergent. Put the sprayer back on when
finished (Fig. 23).
3. Take the soap dispenser attachment and align the two
tabs with your trigger gun. Once aligned, push it into the
trigger gun, and twist counter-clockwise to lock securely
into place (Fig. 24).
