How to Use the Nozzles
CAUTION!
Never exchange nozzles without
locking the safety latch on the trigger.
The quick–connect on the nozzle extension allows you to
switch between five different nozzles. The nozzles vary the
spray pattern as shown below (Figure 17).
Follow these instructions to change nozzles:
• Engage the safety latch on the spray gun.
• Pull back the collar on the quick–connect and pull the
current nozzle off. Store the nozzle in the space
provided on the handles storage panel.
NOTE: For a more gentle rinse, select the white 40° or
green 25° nozzle. To scour the surface, select the yellow
15° or red 0° nozzle. To apply chemical, select the black
nozzle.
• Pull back on the collar, insert the new nozzle and release
the collar. Tug on the nozzle to make sure it is securely
in place.
• For most effective cleaning, keep the spray nozzle
between 8 to 24 inches away from the cleaning surface. If
you get the spray nozzle too close, you may damage the
cleaning surface.

the pump.
To apply detergent follow these steps:
• Review the use of the nozzles.
• Prepare the detergent solution as required by the
manufacturer.
