Working with Detergents
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks
can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning
with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal.
m
WARNING!
Use only detergents specifically designed
for use with pressure washers, such as Sun Joe
DECK WASH (SPX-HDC1G), Sun Joe
WASH (SPX-FCS1G), or Sun Joe
(SPX-APC1G). DO NOT USE household detergents, acids,
alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions. These could damage the pressure
washer. Many detergents may require mixing prior to use.
Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on the detergent
tank.

WARNING!
When being used with detergent, make
sure to use the black soap quick-nozzle.
1. Remove the detergent tank cap with suction tube. Gently
pull the onboard detergent tank out of its storage position

3. Install the soap nozzle (black) on the spray wand (Fig. 15).
4. Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate
the unit. The liquid detergent will automatically mix with
water and be discharged through the nozzle.

CAUTION!
Always test the detergent in an
inconspicuous area before use.
5. Turn the detergent dial to adjust the suction volume of the
detergent solution (Fig. 19).

6. Apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry
surface to be cleaned.
NOTE: Wetting the surface first is not recommended as it
dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.
7. Allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short
time before rinsing. Do not allow the detergent to dry on
the surface.
m
CAUTION!
Damage may occur to painted surfaces if
the detergent is allowed to dry on the surface. Wash and rinse
a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in
direct sunlight.
8. When finished using the pressure washer, you must first
drain and rinse the detergent tank. Run the pressure
washer until all of the soap is drained from the detergent
tank.
