OPERATION
Distance from Cleaning Surface
The distance between the spray nozzle and the cleaning
surface is another factor that affects the impact force of
the water . The impact force of the water increases as the
nozzle is moved closer to the surface . You can vary the
impact force by controlling
1 . The nozzle's fan pattern .
2 . The nozzle's angle to the cleaning surface .
3 . The nozzle's distance from the cleaning surface .
Never use a narrow high impact stream on a surface that
is susceptible to damage . Avoid spraying windows with
a narrow high impact stream or turbo nozzle . Doing so
may break the glass .
1 . Before triggering the gun, select a nozzle with a wide
fan pattern .
2 . Place the nozzle approximately 4-5 feet away from
the cleaning surface . Then hold the nozzle at a 45
degree angle to the cleaning surface . Trigger the gun .
3 . Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the distance
to the cleaning surface until optimum cleaning
efficiency is achieved without damaging the surface .

CAUTION
Always engage the trigger safety latch when the unit
is not in use .
The trigger safety latch prevents the gun from being
triggered accidentally . Push the latch fully down to
engage it .
Your unit is equipped with a quick connect nozzle port .
Choose the appropriate nozzle tip for the job you are
performing .
CAUTION
The narrow high impact spray can damage some
surfaces .
A wide fan pattern distributes the impact of the water
over a larger area resulting in excellent cleaning action
with reduced risk of surface damage . Clean large surface
areas quickly using a wide fan pattern .

Detergent Use
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning
time and assist in the removal of difficult stains . Many
detergents are customized for pressure washer use on
specific cleaning tasks . Pressure washer detergents are
as thick as water . Using thicker detergents – like dish
soap – will clog the chemical injection system .
NOTE
Use only detergents specially formulated for
pressure washers .
You can effectively clean surfaces by combining the
chemical action of detergents with high pressure rinses .
On vertical surfaces, apply the detergent starting at the
bottom and work your way upward . This method prevents
the detergent from sliding down and causing streaks .
Begin high pressure rinsing at the bottom and work
your way upward . On particularly tough stains, use a
brush in combination with detergents and high pressure
rinsing .
System flush
After using detergents, flush the suction system by
placing the detergent suction tube into a bucket of clean
water .
WARNING
NEVER turn the water supply off before turning the
engine/motor off .
