Cleaning and Applying Detergent
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
1. Review "How To Use Quick-Connect Nozzles".
2. Prepare detergent solution as required by the job.
3.The detergent tank is fastened on the frame of the
pressure washer. Fill the detergent tank with detergent.
WARNING! Chemical Burn Hazard.
Chemicals could cause burns resulting in death or
serious injury.
• DO NOT use caustic liquid with pressure washer.
• Use ONLY pressure washer safe detergents/soaps.
Follow all manufacturer instructions.
4.Make sure black detergent nozzle is installed.
NOTICE: Detergent cannot be applied with the high
pressure nozzles (White, Yellow or Turbo).
5.Make sure the garden hose is connected to the water
inlet. Check that the high pressure hose is connected to
the spray gun and the pump. Turn on water.
6.Start the engine following instructions "How to Start Your
Pressure Washer".
NOTICE: You must attach all hoses before you start the
engine
Starting the engine without all the hoses connected and
without the water turned on could damage the pump.
• Damage to pressure washer resulting from failure to
follow this instruction will void warranty.
7.Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower portion
of area to be washed and work upward, using long, even,
overlapping strokes.
8.Allow detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes before
washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying. DO NOT allow detergent to dry on
(prevents streaking).
Pressure Washer Rinsing
WARNING! Be extremely careful if you use the
other relatively unstable location. Pressure in a
running washer builds as you climb. When you
press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray
could cause you to fall. The high pressure spray
could also cause you to fall if you are too close to
the cleaning surface.
For Rinsing:
1.Remove the black detergent nozzle, and select the
nozzles with high pressure following instructions "How
To Use Quick-Connect Nozzles", squeeze the spray gun
trigger and wait for the detergent to clear.
WARNING Kickback from spray gun could cause you
to fall resulting in death or serious injury.
• Operate pressure washer from a stable surface.
• Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure
washer from a ladder, scaffolding, or any other similar
location.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury when spray gun kicks
back.
2.Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you
plan to spray.
3.Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check
the surface for damage. If no damage is found, it is okay
to continue cleaning.
4.Start at the top of the area to be rinsed, working down
with same overlapping strokes as you used for washing
and applying detergent.
