and chemical action is very effective and can be better
than scrubbing if applied properly. Always spray detergent
on a dry surface, do not pre-soak area. Wetting the
surface rst dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning
ability. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface. On
vertical surfaces being cleaned, apply detergent to lower
surfaces and work your way up to prevent detergent from
causing streaks in the dirt and grime. Rinse detergent by
pressure washing from bottom up for same reason.
• If a stain is particularly tough, it may be necessary to re-
apply the detergent and use a stiff bristled brush to scrub
the stain. Subsequent power washing after brushing
should successfully complete your cleaning job.
Storage
• When your pressure washing session has been
completed, turn off the power switch located on the back
of the power washer. Unplug the power cord from the
outlet. Turn off the water supply. Pull the trigger on the
spray gun 2-3 times to drain out the excess water and
to release any remaining water pressure. Disconnect
the garden hose adapter from the water inlet. Do not
allow the power washer to run with no water owing
through it.
• The GHA should be stored in the accessory holder when
your unit is not in use to prevent loss or damage (Fig. 23).
• Remove high pressure hose from spray gun (Fig. 24) and
unscrew the other end of the high pressure hose from the
power washer (Fig. 25).
• Remove lance or detergent bottle from the gun and place
in the accessory holder. Place the gun in the accessory
holder in one of the slots. Lances are pressed into and
stored in the half circle notches, refer back to (Fig. 3).
Make sure to discard any remaining detergent from the
bottle. Flush the bottle and nozzle head with fresh water
to prevent clogging.
• Wrap the power cord around the accessory holder using
the extension tabs at the 3:00 & 9:00 position and the
L-shaped power cord holder/tab located at the 6:00
position (Fig. 26).
• DO NOT store the power washer where it is exposed
to freezing temperatures unless you use Pump Saver.
It is recommended that you use Pump Saver for storing
in freezing temperatures. Freezing will damage the pump
unless Pump Saver is added to the power washer. If not
using or if storing your power washer for more than one
month, run Pump Saver through it. See the section on
Pump Saver for more information.
