How To Use the Adjustable Nozzle
Now that you know how to START and STOP your
pressure washer, the information in this section will tell
you how to adjust the spray pattern and apply
detergent or other cleaning chemicals.
CAUTION!
Never adjust spray pattern when
spraying. Never put hands in front of nozzle to
adjust spray pattern.
On the end of your spray gun is an adjustable nozzle
that you can use to adjust the spray pattern and the
spray pressure.
•
Slide the nozzle forward for low pressure spray;
slide it backward for high pressure spray.
Slide nozzle backward for
high pressure mode.
•
Point the nozzle towards a hard surface, disengage
the safety latch, and press the trigger to test the
pattern.
•
Rotating the nozzle adjusts the spray pattern from
a narrow pattern to a fan pattern.
Twist nozzle counter-
clockwise for fan pattern.
Slide nozzle forward for
low pressure mode and
detergent application.
Twist nozzle clockwise for
narrow spray pattern.
•
For most effective cleaning, keep the spray nozzle
between 8 to 24 inches away from cleaning
surface.
•
If you get the spray nozzle too close, especially
using high pressure mode, you may damage the
surface being cleaned.
•
Do Not get closer than 8 inches when cleaning
tires.
Applying Detergent with the Adjustable
Nozzle
IMPORTANT: Use chemicals designed specifically
for pressure washers. Household detergents could
damage the pump.
IMPORTANT: You MUST attach all hoses before you
start the engine. Starting the engine without all the
hoses connected and without the water turned ON will
damage the pump.
To apply detergent, follow these steps:
•
Review the use of the adjustable nozzle.
•
Prepare detergent solution as required by the job.
•
Hang the detergent solution container on the
lowest hook attached to the handle.
•
Place the filter end of the detergent siphoning tube
into the detergent container.
CAUTION!
When inserting the filter into the detergent
container, route the tube so as to keep it from
inadvertently contacting the hot muffler.
•
Slide the adjustable nozzle forward to low pressure
mode. Detergent cannot be applied with the nozzle
in high pressure position.
•
Make sure the garden hose is connected to the
water inlet. Check that the high pressure hose is
connected to the spray gun and the pump. Start
the engine.
•
Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting from the
bottom and working up.
•
Allow the detergent to "soak in" for 3-5 minutes
before rinsing. Reapply as needed to keep the
surface wet.
•
For washing, start at lower portion of area to be
washed and work upward, using long, even,
overlapping strokes.
