have been customized for pressure washer use on specific
cleaningtasks.
The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying
them to a surface and giving the chemicals time to break
down the dirt and grime. Detergents work best when applied
at lowpressure.
The combination of chemical action and high pressure
rinsing is very effective.
On vertical surfaces, apply the detergent starting at the
bottom and work your way upward. This will prevent the
detergent from sliding down and causing streaks. High
pressure rinsing should also progress from the bottom
to top. On particularly tough stains, it may be necessary
to use a brush in combination with detergents and high
pressurerinsing.

Water Connection

WARNING: According to the applicable
regulations, the appliance must never be
used on the drinking water network
without a system seperator. Use a system
seperator as per IEC 61770TypeBA.
Water flowing through a system seperator is not
considereddrinkable.
• Comply with the regulations of your water
supplycompany.
• All connecting hoses must have properly sealedjoints.
• Make sure the supply hose is at least 12.7 mm in
diameter and isreinforced.
• The appliance should never be used on the drinking
water supply without a backflow valve. Water that has
passed the backflow valve is consideredundrinkable.
Cleaning a Surface (Fig. A)
1. To start the pressure washer, rotate the ON/OFF dial
17
to the ONposition.
2. Confirm that the water faucet is open or use any other
water source so that water will be supplied to the
pressure washerunit.
3. The best angle for spraying water against a cleaning
surface is 45°.
- Spraying head on tends to cause dirt particles to
imbed in thesurface.
- When working on vertical surfaces, it is best to
apply detergent starting at the bottom and working
upwards which will prevent the detergent from
sliding down and causingstreaks.
4. To disengage the spray handle, release thetrigger.
NOTE: Excessive pump pressure may be the result of a
clogged nozzle. Always turn OFF the pressure washer
unit and unplug the unit before attempting to unclog
anozzle.
Detergents (J1, J2, J3, J4)
For steps on attaching the detergent/soap bottle,
please refer to Attaching Soap Bottle under Assembly
andAdjustments.
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time
and assist in the removal of difficult stains. Some detergents
