with non-water soluble grease.
• The screen inside the clear adapter should be cleaned
periodically. Insert a pen or pencil in small hole at the end of
the adapter. The screen filter will slide out (Fig. 18). Rinse it
with clean water, and then place it back in the adapter.
• Keep the nozzle cleaning wire, Which is taped to this manual
for use in unclogging the lance nozzle. If you lose the
cleaning wire an unbent paper clip works fine.
Cleaning nozzles
• A clogged or partially clogged nozzle can cause significant
reduction of water pressure coming out of the nozzle and/or
cause the unit to pulsate while spraying.
• Turn off the unit
• Turn off the water supply to the unit
• Relieve any pressure trapped in the hose by squeezing the
trigger 2-3 times, and then lock the spray gun by pushing the
lock button from left to right.
• Take off the adjustable lance. Rotate the nozzle on the
adjustable lance to the narrow stream setting which opens up
the fan blades (Fig. 19).
• Using the nozzle tip cleaner provided (or an unfolded paper
clip), insert the wire into the nozzle hole and move back
and forth until debris is dislodged (Fig. 20). Back flush water
through the nozzles using garden hose and highest pressure
available (either standard water nozzle or use your thumb
over the nozzle to create water pressure for back flush).
How to Avoid Damaging Surfaces
• Damage to surfaces being cleaned occurs because the
impact force of the water pressure exceeds the durability
of the surface. Bare wood can be penetrated; paint can be
peeled off, etc. You can vary the force of your power washer
by controlling:
o the fan pattern of the nozzle (when using the adjustable
nozzle)
o the angle of the surface being cleaned
o the distance of the nozzle from the surface being cleaned
• Never use a narrow high pressure stream of water or the
turbo lance on soft surfaces susceptible to damage.
• Use the adjustable spray lance when cleaning windows. Be
sure to adjust the nozzle to a wide fan spray pattern and
place the nozzle approximately four to five feet away from the
window with the nozzle at forty five degree angle. Squeeze
the trigger and vary the fan spray pattern and angle until
optimum cleaning efficiency is achieved (Fig. 21).
Detergent Bottle
• Use detergents designed for power washers. We offer
