Operation
The following cleaning procedure will ensure that you
achieve the most beneficial results in the shortest
amount of time.
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
1. Unscrew the top of detergent applicator and fill with
detergent.
2. Put the top of detergent applicator back on.
3. Remove lance from gun.
4. Attach detergent applicator to gun.

5. Apply the detergent so it thoroughly covers the
cleaning surface. Apply from bottom to top to prevent
the detergent from sliding down and streaking.
6. 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.
7. Remove detergent applicator from gun and replace
with the lance.
8. Rinse detergent from surface.
9. Rinse the detergent applicator with clean water
following each use.
5. Final rinse
Make sure you thoroughly rinse the surface and that all
detergent has been removed.
6. Shut down
1. Make sure all detergent is flushed from the system.
2. Turn off the motor.
3. Turn off the water supply.
4. Trigger the gun to de-pressurise the system.
5. After each use, wipe all surfaces of the pressure
washer with a clean, damp cloth.
Looking After your Product
1. This pressure washer is not meant to pump hot water.
Never connect to a hot water supply.
2. Never operate the unit for more than one minute
without spraying water. This will cause a heat build-up
that can damage the pump.
3. Only use the nozzles supplied with the machine.
4. 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.
5. Release the trigger when changing the spray pattern.
Failure to do so could result in damage.
6. Do not operate the pressure washer with the inlet
water screen removed. Be sure to keep the screen
clear of debris and sediment.
7. 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.
