pressure washer detergents. To convert for use with

service center for more information.
NOTICE:
USE ONLY DETERGENTS DESIGNED FOR PRESSURE
WASHERS. Do not use household detergents, acids,
alkalines, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions, which can damage the pump
or cause property damage. Many detergents may
require mixing prior to use. Prepare cleaning solution
as instructed on the solution bottle. Always test in an
inconspicuous area before beginning.
 Remove the cap from the detergent tank and pour pressure
washer detergent in the tank. Replace cap on tank.
NOTE: The machine setting of this unit is 20:1, which
usually allows the use of 1 gallon pressure washer
detergent without further dilution. Check your detergent
instructions to be sure additional dilution is not necessary.
 Install the blue soap nozzle on the spray wand.
 Squeeze the trigger and wait approximately 5 seconds
for the detergent to appear.
 Spray the detergent on a dry surface using long, even,
overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow
detergent to dry on the surface.
Before shutting off the engine:
 Fill the detergent tank with clean water.
 Spray the clear water through the spray wand until the
tank is empty.
 If any soap remains in the spray, repeat with a second
tank of clean water.
 Shut off the engine.
NOTE: Shutting off the engine will not relieve pressure in the
system. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
