1) Before starting any cleaning task, it is important to remove objects like toys or outdoor
furniture that may be tripped over by high pressure water from the work area. Ensure that
all doors and windows are closed tightly.
2) Connect the plug properly.
3) Trigger switch is in a locked off position to prevent being pressed accidentally. Depress
safety lock (c) to "unlocking" position, you can press the trigger switch. (Fig.K)

out of the pump and hose. (Fig.L)
5) Start the pressure washer by turning ON/OFF switch to "ON" position, then press the trigger.
1. Select the right nozzle for the job.
Your product is supplied with a selection of quick connect nozzle tips. The nozzles are sized
specifically to give you maximum pressure at all times. Each nozzle is marked and rated in
degrees of fan. They are also color coded (see chart on opposite page). The higher the number
of the fan degree, the wider the fan pattern is. The tighter the spray fan the more impact on
the surface, which is good for cleaning tough jobs. The wider the spray fan, the more spread
out the impact on the surface, so they are better for easy jobs, or soft surfaces. Finding the
correct nozzle for the
job at hand make take some experimenting. Always start with the widest
fan degree and continue to the lower degree fans until the best work result is achieved.
Always test the nozzle on an area that is not noticeable.
NOTICE: Not all models come with all nozzles described in this section. Use only the
information pertaining to the nozzles supplied with your product.(Nozzle selection Chart)

3) Soap bottle:
To penetrate and remove dirt more effectively, it is recommended to using with the soap bottle.
Connect the soap bottle to spray gun, turn the soap bottle clockwise until it locked in right
position. (Fig.0)
Note: Detergent needs to be diluted to achieve the most effective cleaning. It is recommended
to diluting detergent in a suitable container to the required concentration before use.
4) Cleaning pin:
Clean the nozzle with cleaning pin (11). (See Fig.P)

0° Nozzle - Red: This nozzle delivers a pinpoint stream of pressurized water and is
extremely powerful. Use it for the toughest cleaning jobs, although It covers only a
small area. This nozzle should only be directed at surfaces that can withstand intense
high pressure such as metal or concrete. Do not use this nozzle to clean wood or soft
surfaces.
15° Nozzle - Yellow: This nozzle delivers a 15-degree spray pattern for heavy duty
cleaning and stripping. It should only be used on surfaces that can withstand pressure
from this nozzle.
25° Nozzle - Green: This nozzle delivers a 25-degree spray pattern for general tasks. It
should only be used on surfaces that can withstand pressure from this nozzle.
40° Nozzle – White: This nozzle delivers a 40-degree spray pattern for easily damaged
surfaces. It should only be used on surfaces that can withstand pressure from this
nozzle.
2. Connect nozzle to spray wand.
WARNING:
• Never place hands in front of nozzle, or
point nozzle at your face.
• Never attempt to clean a clogged nozzle
while attached to the wand.
• Never attempt to attach or remove spray

1. Do not use the pressure washer with water contaminated by solvents like paint thinner,
gasoline, engine oil, etc.
2. Dirty water will damage the unit. To avoid this damage, we recommend checking the
water filter (located inside the water inlet) to clean it out, you can see maintenance
section briefly.
3. Always prevent debris from being drawn into the unit by using a clean water source
if required.
Before performing maintenance or cleaning, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the
socket. To ensure a long and problem-free working life, please adopt the following
suggestions:
1. Washwater hose, high pressure hose, spray lance and accessories before mounting.
2. Clean the dust and sand on connectors.
3. Rinse the detergent spraying attachment after use.
4. Clean the nozzles after each use.
5. Any repair should always be made in an authorized workshop with original spare parts.
6. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard.
It should be kept clean so as to let cooling air freely pass through the machine vents.
The coupling should be greased regularly to ensure an easy connection and non-crack O-ring.
1. Clean the water inlet filter regularly once a month or more frequently according to use.
2. Unscrew quick connector and take water inlet out to clean the water inlet filter.
3. Before re-installing, please check if it is in good condition.
4. The inlet filter must always be fitted inside the water inlet pipe to filter out sand, limestone
and other impurities, as they will damage the pump valves.
Cautions: Failure to fit the filter well cannot filter out impurities.
A blockage in the nozzle will cause the pump pressure to be too high. This is why it needs to
be cleaned immediately:
1. Stop the machine and disconnect the nozzle.
2. Clean the nozzle, flush the nozzle backward with water.
Important: The cleaning tool should only be used when the nozzle is detached!
1. Do not use with non-water liquid, only use with cold water supply.
2. Water hose must be at least 1/2" in diameter.
3. The flow rate of water supply shall not be less than 5L/min.
4. Flow rate can be determined by running the water into an empty container for one minute.
5. The water supply temperature must not exceed 40℃(1040℉).
