4. It is best to start at a low pressure
setting and adjust the pressure up-
wards. Test spray the edge of the
surface to be cleaned first to make
sure that the stream is not too strong
for the surface. If the stream dam-
ages the surface turn the Pressure
Regulator Knob towards the "—" to
reduce the pressure. Moving further
away from the surface being cleaned
will also reduce the pressure being
applied to the surface. If the stream
is still too strong. Turn the water sup-

the excess pressure from the gun by
squeezing the Trigger, and change to
