The soap dispenser may only be used
with the trigger gun.
Add detergent to the bottle and then
attach the detergent applicator bottle to
the high pressure lance, just push it
firmly onto the end of the trigger gun
and turn clockwise to lock in place.
(Fig. 9) To remove the detergent
applicator bottle, lift the tab on the top
of the connector and pull off.

Using the Brush
The brush is used with the trigger gun.
Push the brush onto the trigger gun
nozzle and turn clockwise to lock as
you would for the lance. The brush may
be used for washing cars, boats,
windows and other similar items. The
brush operates at open orifice pressure
so that it will not direct a stream of
water. (Fig. 8)

WARNING
Do not use acids, solvents, or any other
flammable material in this product. These
products can cause physical injuries to the
operator and irreversible damage to the
machine.
The angle of the water on the lance may
be adjusted between 0° and 60° by
turning the nozzle adjuster counter-
clockwise for a wider angle or clockwise
for a narrower angle. (Fig. 7) Always
make sure that the "On/Off' switch is in
the "Off" position before changing the
angle of the water jet. It is also
recommended that the trigger gun safety
lock be engaged as well. The adjustable
lance allows you to use any variety of
spray pattern from a full fan spray to a
direct stream spray. When using the
pressure washer to clean wood decks,
siding, vehicles, etc., always start using
the fan spray and begin spraying from a
minimum 36" away to avoid damaging
the surface of the material that you are
cleaning. Always clear the area that you
will be cleaning of people, pets and
objects.
TOTAL STOP SYSTEM
PLEASE NOTE: This pressure washer is
equipped with the Total Stop System,
which stops the unit during the bypass
stage. To start the pressure washer, it is
therefore necessary to set the On/Off
switch to the “On” position; after that
press the trigger: the Total Stop System
will start the machine and will stop it
automatically when the trigger is
released. It is advisable to put on the
safety lock of the trigger whenever the
machine is stopped in order to avoid
unintentional starting.
Any automatic start of the machine
without pressing the trigger is attributable
to air bubbles in the water or other similar
phenomena which do not imply the
existence of any defects in the machine.
Do NOT leave the appliance unattended
during the standby for more than 5
minutes. Contrarily, for the safety of the
appliance it is necessary to re-turn the
On/Off switch to the “Off” position. Please
check that the coupling of the high
pressure hose with the appliance and the
trigger gun supplied as standard
equipment is made correctly, that is to
say without any water leak.
