OPERATION
l Separate the soap bottle from the foam cannon by
twisting it counterclockwise.
l Fill the soap bottle with a properly formulated detergent-
to-water ratio, following the detergent manufacturer's
instructions.
NOTE: Use detergents designed for pressure washers.
The detergent should be the consistency of water. DO
NOT use thick, gel-like detergents.
l To reinstall the soap bottle, place it on the foam cannon
and turn it clockwise.
l Install the foam cannon onto the lance. The foam
cannon is installed and removed in the same manner
as the nozzles.
l Turn the water on and start the pressure washer.
l Squeeze the trigger and wait several seconds for
detergent to appear in the water stream.
l Start cleaning at the bottom of the surface and work
your way up in a side-to-side motion. Do not allow soap
to dry on the surface being cleaned.
l Release the trigger to stop the pressure washer.
l Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before
squeezing the trigger again.
NOTE: Squeezing the trigger rapidly will cause the auto-
start feature to miss an on/off cycle and may prevent
the washer from turning on. Use slow, deliberate trigger
pulls to avoid this.
l When you are finished, remove excess detergent from
the soap bottle and fill it with clean water. Spray the
water through the foam cannon to flush the system.
To clean without detergent:
l Stop the pressure washer and turn the water faucet
completely off.
l Point the spray gun in a safe direction and pull the
trigger to release the water pressure.
l If installed, remove the foam cannon.
l Install an appropriate nozzle for the task you are
performing.
l Turn the water on and start the pressure washer.
l Release the safety lock and begin pressure washing by
squeezing the trigger all the way into the handle.
NOTE: Always test in a small inconspicuous area to
avoid or reduce damage.
l Start cleaning at the bottom of the surface and work
your way up in a side-to-side motion.
