Pressure Washer Operation
WARNING: Eye protection / Fluid Injection hazard
ALWAYS wear approved safety glasses when operating Pressure
Washers. Spray can splash back or propel objects, including incorrectly
attached accessories. The high-pressure stream of water that this equipment produces
can cut through skin and its underlying tissues, leading to possible amputation. The
spray gun traps high water pressure, even when the motor is stopped and water source
is disconnected, which can cause injury.
• Do not direct spray from the Pressure Washer at any persons or animals.
• Keep children and pets away from the work area.
• Keep work area clean of loose rocks, glass and debris.
• The high pressure water stream could cause serious injury.
WARNING: Asphyxiation Hazard
Use the Pressure Washer only outside in a fully ventilated area.

1. Selecting 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

spray nozzle from 8 to 24 inches
For most effective cleaning, keep
away from cleaning surface. If you
get spray nozzle too close, you may
damage surface being cleaned. It is
not recommended to get closer than 6
inches when cleaning tires.
5. Pressure Adjustment
5.1 Vary your distance: To change the
effect of the pressure on the surface
being cleaned, vary the distance
between spray nozzle and the surface
being cleaned. The closer to the
surface the higher the effect of the
pressure. As you pull away from
the surface, the pressure effect will
reduce. For most effective cleaning,
keep the nozzle between 8 to 24
inches from surface being cleaned
6. Using Chemicals
NOTICE: Use only soaps and chemicals
designed for use with a Pressure Washer.
DO NOT USE CHLORINE BLEACH,
ACIDS OR INDUSTRIAL SOLVENTS.
Chemicals, soaps and cleaning solvents
will not siphon when a high-pressure nozzle
is used. Only use the Black (low pressure)
Nozzle when spraying detergents. Fill
Detergent Tank (if so equipped) with
prepared detergent solution and close the
cap. The Pressure Washer will draw one
gallon of detergent for every seven gallons
of water.
6.1 If your Pressure Washer is equipped
with an on board soap tank:
6.2 Fill the soap tank with detergent and
close the lid.
