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

Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing. Do not allow
detergent to dry on surface.
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 nozzle 6-8” (15-20
cm) from the work surface, at a 45° angle.
