6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 Working with Detergents
Working with a detergent ensures quick soaking of the dirt, and
allows the high-pressure water to penetrate and remove the dirt
more eectively. Always spray detergent on a dry surface, do not
pre-soak the area. Wetting the surface rst dilutes the detergent
and reduces its cleaning ability.
To apply detergents, you must be operating at a low pressure.
This provides a gentle application of the detergent, with the
pressure equivalent to the lowest pressure garden hose. The high-
pressure setting is used for cleaning; you cannot apply detergents
when working at a high pressure. Always test the detergent in a
concealed area before use.
a
Engage the safety lock on the spray gun.

Then, attach the low-pressure spray tip (black tip) to the
quick-connect wand for soap application.

(When using detergent)
1. Fill the detergent container with detergent.
2. Attach the detergent suction tube onto the detergent lid
3. Attach the container to the pressure washer’s container
storage area.
f
Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate
the device. The liquid detergent will be mixed with water
automatically, being discharged through the nozzle at
low pressure. Apply the detergent to a dry work surface
from bottom to top.
g
Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a short
time before rinsing. Do not allow detergent to dry on
the surface.
h
Rinse with clean water under high pressure. On a vertical
surface, rinse from the bottom up, then rinse from the
top down to avoid streaking. Hold the nozzle 15-20cm
(6-8”) away from the work surface at a 45° angle.
j
When you have nished using the detergent injection
system, ll the detergent container with clean water.
Siphon water at low pressure for one minute, so that all
detergent is ushed through the system. Remove the
detergent container and rinse it thoroughly.
CAUTION
Damage may occur to painted surfaces if chemicals are
allowed to dry on them. Wash and rinse a small section at a
time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or under direct sunlight.
