HOW TO USE YOUR WASHER
If you have any problems operating your pressure wash-
er, please call the pressure washer helpline at
1-800-222-3136.
Note: Included with your pressure washer is a video cas-
sette that demonstrates how to operate your pressure
washer. If you have a video cassette recorder (VCR), you
may want to view the video before assembling your unit.

With the adjustable nozzle you can adjust the spray pat-
tern to be either low pressure stream or high pressure
stream. Twisting the nozzle adjusts the spray from a nar-
row spray pattern to a fan spray pattern.

Slide the nozzle attachment forward when you wish to
adjust the spray to low pressure mode. Slide the noz-
zle backward to achieve high pressure.
