washer.
• To remove the water hose, simply pull back on the blue
collar and it will slide off the clear adapter. Note: this
can be done at any time. Water will not come out of the
garden hose as the blue/black collar has a water check
valve. Water will only ow from the garden hose when it is
connected to the clear adapter.
• You have now completed the assembly of your BLUE
CLEAN POWER WASHER and are now ready to begin
using your electric power washer. Read and observe all
safety instructions.
operatIng InStructIonS
• Turn on the water supply at the faucet.

‘off’: On (--) Off (O). (Fig. 16)
• Unwind the power cord completely and plug the GFCI into
a grounded 120 volt outlet. Press the ‘reset’ button on the
GFCI box (Fig. 17). The indicator window should show a
red color. This must be done each time the unit is plugged
in.

yourself and others squeeze the trigger on the spray gun

operatIng tIpS and maIntenance
• If you hear the motor run intermittently when the trigger
is not being squeezed, that is normal. The pump is
priming itself so it is ready to operate when the trigger is
squeezed. Turn off the power washer if not being used
after ve minutes.
• The o-rings on the bayonet end of the adjustable lance
and detergent bottle should be cleaned regularly and
lubricated with non-water soluble grease.

periodically. Insert a pen or pencil in small hole at the end
of the adapter. The screen lter will slide out (Fig. 19).
Rinse it with clean water, and then place it back in the
adapter.
• Keep the nozzle cleaning wire, which is taped to this
manual for use in unclogging the lance nozzle. If you lose
the cleaning wire an unbent paper clip works ne.
Cleaning nozzles
• A clogged or partially clogged nozzle can cause signicant
reduction of water pressure coming out of the nozzle and/
or cause the unit to pulsate while spraying.
