Working with Detergents
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks
can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning
with detergent allows for more eective dirt removal.
mWARNING! Use only detergents specically designed
for use with pressure washers. DO NOT USE household
detergents, acids, alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents,
ammable material, or industrial grade solutions. These could
damage the pressure washer. Many detergents may require
mixing prior to use. Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed
on the solution bottle.
1. Remove the spray wand attachment from the trigger gun.
2. Remove the soap dispenser sprayer from the bottle and
ll with mixed detergent. Put the sprayer back on when
nished (Fig. 23).
3. Take the soap dispenser attachment and align the two
tabs with your trigger gun. Once aligned, push it into the
trigger gun, and twist counter-clockwise to lock securely
into place (Fig. 24).
4. Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate
the unit.
mCAUTION! Always test the detergent in an
inconspicuous area before use.
5. Apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry
surface to be cleaned.
NOTE: Wetting the surface rst is not recommended as it
dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.
6. Allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short
time before rinsing. Do not allow the detergent to dry on
the surface.
mCAUTION! Damage may occur to painted surfaces if
the detergent is allowed to dry on the surface. Wash and rinse
a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in
direct sunlight.
mCAUTION! Failure to follow these cleaning instructions
will cause the injection system to become clogged and
inoperable.
Rinsing with the Pressure Washer
1. Turn o the pressure washer, remove the bucket or shut
o the water supply.
2. Pull the trigger to release water pressure.
3. Lock the safety lock on the trigger handle by pushing on
the safety lock until it clicks into the slot.
4. Remove the soap dispenser attachment by pushing
rmly in while twisting it clockwise to unlock the tabs
and remove from the slots. Pull the attachment out of the
trigger gun.
5. Attach the spray wand onto the trigger gun.
6. Select the right nozzle for the job (Fig. 25).
