Operation
The following cleaning procedure will ensure that
you achieve the most benecial results in the
shortest amount of time.
01. Surface preparation
Clear the working area
and make sure that all windows and doors
are closed tightly. Make sure that all plants
and trees adjacent to the cleaning area are
protected by a drop cloth.
02. Initial high pressure rinse
The next step
is to spray the cleaning surface with water
to clear off any dirt or grime that may have
collected on the surface. This will allow
your detergent to attack the dirt that has
worked its way into the cleaning surface.
Before triggering the gun, adjust the
nozzle to a wide spray pattern and slowly
adjust to the desired spray pattern.
This will help you avoid applying too much
pressure to the surface that could cause
damage.
03. Detergent application
Only use detergents
formulated for pressure washers. Test
the detergent in an inconspicuous area
before use. Follow the manufacturer’s
label directions for mixing the correct
concentrations of detergent to water.
• Unscrew the top of detergent applicator
and fill with detergent.
• Put the top of detergent applicator back
on.
• Remove lance from gun.
• Attach detergent applicator to gun.
• Apply the detergent so it thoroughly
covers the cleaning surface. Apply from
bottom to top to prevent the detergent
from sliding down and streaking.
• Allow the detergent to remain on the
surface for a few minutes. This is a good
time to use a brush to lightly scrub heavily
soiled areas. Never allow detergent to dry
on the cleaning surface.
• Remove detergent applicator from gun
and replace with the lance.
• Rinse detergent from surface.
• Rinse the detergent applicator with clean
water following each use.
04. Final rinse
Make sure you thoroughly rinse
the surface and that all detergent has been
removed.
05. Shut down
• Make sure all detergent is flushed from the
system.
• Turn off the motor.
• Turn off the water supply.
• Trigger the gun to de-pressurise the
system.
• After each use, wipe all surfaces of the
pressure washer with a clean, damp cloth.
Looking After your Product
• This pressure washer is not meant to
pump hot water. Never connect to a hot
water supply.
• Never operate the unit for more than one
minute without spraying water. This will
cause a heat build-up that can damage the
pump.
• Only use the nozzles supplied with the
machine.
• Never store the pressure washer outdoors
or where it could freeze. The pump will be
seriously damaged. Any components with
water left inside will also be damaged, e.g.
the pressure gun.
• Release the trigger when changing the
spray pattern. Failure to do so could result
in damage.
• Do not operate the pressure washer with
the inlet water screen removed. Be sure
to keep the screen clear of debris and
sediment.
• Make sure you clean the machine every
three months and inspect the filter and the
nozzle prior to every use, ensuring there is
no debris that may impair use.
