narrow high impact stream or turbo nozzle as this may
cause breakage.
The surest way to avoid damaging surfaces is to follow these
steps:
u Before triggering the gun, adjust the nozzle to a wide
fan pattern.
u Place the nozzle approximately 4-5 (13-16 cm) feet
from and 45 degrees to the cleaning surface, and
trigger the gun.
u Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the distance to
the cleaning surface until optimum cleaning efciency
is achieved without damaging the surface.
Turbo nozzle (Not included with all Models)
A turbo nozzle, sometimes referred to as a rotary nozzle,
is a very effective tool that can signicantly reduce cleaning
time. The turbo nozzle combines the power of a narrow high
impact stream and the efciency of a 25 degree fan pattern.
This swirls the narrow high impact stream into a cone shape
that cleans a larger area.
Caution! Since a turbo nozzle uses a narrow high impact
stream, only use it in applications where the cleaning surface
cannot be damaged by narrow high impact spray. Additionally,
the turbo nozzle is NOT adjustable and cannot be used to
apply detergent.
Detergents (J1, J2, J3)
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning
time and assist in the removal of difcult stains. Some
detergents have been customized for pressure washer use
on specic 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 combina-
tion with detergents and high pressure rinsing.
Operation
The following cleaning procedure will help you to organize
your cleaning task, and ensure that you achieve the
most benecial results in the shortest amount of time.
Remember to use the spraying/cleaning techniques
previously listed.
1. Surface preparation
Before starting a pressure wash cleaning job, it is
important to prepare the surface that is to be cleaned. This
is done by cleaning the area of furniture, and making sure
that all windows and doors are closed tight. In addition,
you should make sure that all plants and trees adjacent
to the cleaning area are protected by a drop cloth. This
will ensure that your plants won’t be sprayed by the
detergents.
2. Initial High-Pressure Rinse
The next step is to spray the cleaning surface with water to
clear off any dirt or grime that may have collected on the
suface. This will allow your detegent to attack the deepdown
dirt that has worked its way into the cleaning surface.
Before triggering the gun, adjust the nozzle to a wide fan
pattern and slowly adjust to the desired spray pattern.
This will help you avoid applying too much concentrated spray
to the surface which could cause damage.
3. Final Rinse
Start nal rinse at bottom and work upward. Make sure
you thoroughly rinse the surface and that all detergent has
been removed.
4. Shut down
u Be sure all detergent is ushed from system.
u Turn off motor .
u Turn off water supply.
u After motor and water supply are turned off, trigger
gun to depressurize system.
Caution! NEVER turn water supply off before turning
motor off. Serious damage could occur to the pump and/or
motor.
Warning! NEVER disconnect high pressure discharge
hose from machine while system is pressurized. To
depressurize, turn motor off, turn water supply off and
squeeze gun trigger 2-3 times.
u After each use, wipe all surfaces of the pressure
washer with a clean, damp cloth.
6. Storage
Do not store pressure washer outdoors.Do not store
pressure washer where it might freeze.
Pressure washer tips for extending the life of
your machine
u Never operate unit without water.
u Pressure washer is not meant to pump hot water.
Never connect to hot water supply – this will
signicantly reduce life of the pump.
u Using detergent other than other brand may cause
