terminology
PRESSURE WASHER
TERMINOLOGY
PSI: Pounds per Square Inch. The
unit of measure for water pressure.
Also used for air pressure, hydraulic
pressure, etc.
GPM: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of
measure for the flow rate of water.
CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied
by PSI. GPM x PSI = CU
Bypass Mode: Allows water to
re-circulate within pump when the gun
trigger is not pulled.
Allowing the unit to
run for more than
two minutes without the gun trigger
pulled could cause overheating and
damage to the pump.
Chemical Injection System: Mixes
cleaners or cleaning solvents with
the water to improve cleaning

OPERATING FEATURES
PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTS
The pressure setting is preset at the
factory to achieve optimum pressure
and cleaning. If you need to lower the
pressure, it can be accomplished by
these methods.
1. Back away from the surface to
be cleaned. The further away you
are, the less the pressure will be
on the surface to be cleaned.
2. Change to the 40º nozzle - this
nozzle delivers a less powerful
stream of water and a wider spray
pattern. DO NOT attempt
to increase pump
pressure. A higher pressure setting
than the factory set pressure may
damage pump.
TO USE SPRAY WAND
The nozzles for the spray wand are
stored in the gatling spray wand. See
