If using another chemical designed for use with
pressure washers, prepare the chemical solution as
required by the chemical manufacturer. Fill
chemical reservoir(s) with the prepared solution as
needed.
Rotate the Dial-A-Cleaner™ selector knob to the
letter corresponding to the desired reservoir.
Push the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure
mode. Chemical cannot be applied with nozzle
in high pressure position.
Connect garden hose to water inlet, check that high
pressure hose is connected to spray gun and pump
(see page 6), and start engine.
WARNING!
Be extremely careful if you must
use the cleaning system from a ladder,
scaffolding or any other relatively unstable
location. When you press the trigger, the recoil
from the initial spray could cause you to fall, or if
you are too close to the cleaning surface, high
pressure could cause you off a climbing
apparatus.
Start at lower portion of area to be washed and
work upward, using long, even overlapping strokes.
Allow detergent to 'soak in' (between 3-5 minutes)
before washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to
prevent surface from drying.
Wash and Rinse Surface
After you have applied detergent, scour the surface
with the high pressure water stream and then rinse it
clean, as follows:
Pull adjustable nozzle backward for high pressure
mode. Chemical will not flow when in the high
pressure mode.
Expand the spray pattern for a more gentle rinsing
action. Start at top of area to be rinsed, working
down with same action as for cleaning.
CAUTION!
Test a small area of the surface to be
cleaned. Make sure there is no surface damage
caused by the high pressure spray.
Rinse System After Every Use
It is imperative that the chemical dispensing system be
rinsed after each use to prevent clogging or leaks:
Fill the System Rinse reservoir with clean water.
Before disconnecting the water supply, start your
cleaning system.
Push nozzle forward for low pressure mode.
Rotate the Dial-A-Cleaner™ selector knob to the
letter corresponding to the System Rinse tank. As
clean rinse water is drawn through the system,
continue the flow until no detergent foam is
observed.
Rotate the Dial-A-Cleaner™ selector knob to the
OFF position when finished to prevent chemical
leakage.
Siphoning
Do Not siphon standing water for your water supply.
Contaminated, brackish or dirty water can damage the
pump. Connect only to household water supply.
How to Use the Hose Reel
Your pressure washer is equipped with a hose reel
that is designed to store your hose when unit is not in
use. These instructions are for short term storage only.
For long term storage see "Storage" on page 15.
After each use:
Disconnect hose from spray gun and high pressure
outlet on pump.
Drain water from hose.
Slide one end of the hose into the hole on the hose
reel. Turn the hose reel with the handle to coil the
hose onto the reel.
Push the other end of the hose into the clip on the
side of your unit.
IMPORTANT: Do Not use your pressure washer with
the hose coiled onto the hose reel. The hose reel is for
storage purposes only.
Tips
Never use the garden hose inlet to siphon
detergent or wax.
If you hold the spray nozzle too far away from the
object being cleaned, washing will not be as
effective.
Always store the cleaning system with the Dial-A-
Cleaner™ selector knob in the OFF position.
Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray
gun, circulating water in the pump can reach
temperatures between 140–145°F. The automatic cool
down system engages at this temperature and cools
the pump by discharging the warm water onto the
ground, preventing internal pump damage.
