Usage Tips
• For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle from 8 to
24 inches (20 to 61 cm) away from cleaning surface.
• If you get spray nozzle too close, especially using high
pressure mode, you may damage surface being
cleaned.
• DO NOT get closer than 6 inches (15 cm) when
cleaning tires.
Applying Detergent with the Adjustable Nozzle

2. Prepare detergent solution as required by job.
3. Place small filter end of detergent siphoning tube into

NOTE: Make sure the filter is fully submerged in detergent
while applying detergent.
4. Slide adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure mode.
Detergent cannot be applied with nozzle in high
pressure position.
5. Make sure garden hose is connected to water inlet.
Check that high pressure hose is connected to spray
gun and pump. Turn on water.
6. Engage trigger lock on spray gun and start engine
following instructions How to Start Your Pressure

7. Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washed and work upward, using

washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying. DO NOT allow detergent to dry on
(prevents streaking).
IMPORTANT: You must flush the detergent siphoning
