• Apply the detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washed and work upward, using
long, even, overlapping strokes. Do Not allow the
detergent to dry on (prevents streaking).
• Allow the detergent to “soak in” for 3-5 minutes before
washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to prevent
surface from drying,
IMPORTANT: You must flush the chemical injection
system after each use by placing the filter into a clean
bucket of water and running the pressure washer in low
pressure for I -2 minutes.
Pressure Washer Rinsing
A WARNING! Be extremely careful if you must
use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding
or any other relatively unstable location. Pressure in
a running washer builds as you climb. When you
press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray
could cause you to fall. The high pressure spray
could also cause you to fall if you are too close to
the cleaning surface.
For Rinsing:
• Slide the noiizie backward to high pressure, press the
trigger and wait for the detergent to clear.
NOTE: You can also stop detergent from flowing by
simply removing detergent siphon tube from bottle.
• Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you
plan to spray.
• Apply a high pressure spray to a small area, then check
the surface for damage. If no damage is found, it is okay
to continue cleaning.
• Start at the top of the area to be rinsed, working down
with same overlapping strokes as you used for cleaning.
Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun,
circulating water in the pump can reach a temperature
between 140-145 °F. When the water reaches this
temperature, the automatic cool down system engages and
cools the pump by discharging the warm water onto
the ground. This system prevents internal damage to the
pump.
