Pressure Washer Rinsing; Automatic Cool Down System; Specifications - Generac Power Systems 2600 PSI Owner's Manual

• Hang the detergent solution on the hook of the
wireform attached to the handle, as shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13 — Insert Filter into Container.
• Place the small filter end of the detergent siphoning tube
into the detergent container.
CAUTION!
Keep the detergent siphoning tube from
coming in contact with the hot muffler. This will damage
the plastic tube. When inserting the filter into a cleaning
solution bottle, route the tube so as to keep it from
inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.
• Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure
mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle in
high pressure position.
• 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 (see "How To Use Your
Pressure Washer", page 8). Start the engine.
• Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting from the
bottom and working up.
• Allow the detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes before
washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying.
• For washing, start at lower portion of area to be washed
and work upward, using long, even, overlapping strokes.

Pressure Washer Rinsing

WARNING!
Be extremely careful if you must
use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding
or any 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.
Generac Portable Products 2,600PSI High Pressure Washer
For Rinsing:
• Slide the nozzle backward to high pressure, press the
trigger and wait for the detergent to clear.
NOTE: You can also stop detergent from flowing by
simply removing detergent siphoning tube from bottle.
• Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you
plan to spray.
• 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.
• Start at the top of the area to be rinsed, working down
with same overlapping strokes as you used for washing
and applying detergent.

Automatic Cool Down System

(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun,
circulating water in the pump can reach a temperature
between 140–145°F. When the water reaches this
temperature, the automatic cool down system engages and
cools the pump by discharging the warm water onto
the ground. This system prevents internal damage to the
pump.
