BASIC ELEMENTS OF A PRESSURE WASHER

High Pressure Pump (located inside the shroud): Increases the pressure of the
water supply.
Motor: Drives the high pressure pump.
High Pressure Hose: Carries the pressurized water from the pump to the gun
and wand.
Spray Gun: Connects with wand to control water flow rate, direction, and
pressure.
Quick Connect Wand: Wand is equipped with a female quick connect coupler on
the end. This allows the user to quickly change out high-pressure nozzles for
different spray patterns and change to the soap nozzle for low pressure and
chemical/soap applications. See Operation section.
Chemical Hose (not shown): Allows cleaners or cleaning solvents to be mixed
with the pressurized water stream. See How To Siphon Chemicals/Cleaning
Solvents in Operation section of this manual.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter Protection (GFCI): This washer is provided
with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power
supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric
shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord become necessary, use only
identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.
