CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Detergents
• Use detergents designed for power washers.
Hardware stores or home centers also have power
washer detergents for different cleaning projects. The
cleaning solution should be the consistency of water
in order to prevent clogging your detergent bottle and
nozzle.
• This system applies detergent under low pressure.
The cleaning power of the detergents is enhanced
when applied with low pressure and enough
time is given to break down dirt and grime. The
combination of low pressure and chemical action
is very effective and can be better than scrubbing
if applied properly. Always spray detergent on a dry
surface. Do not pre-soak area. Wetting the surface
first dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning
ability. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface. On
vertical surfaces being cleaned, apply detergent
to lower surfaces and work your way up to prevent
detergent from causing streaks in the dirt and
grime. Rinse detergent by pressure washing from
bottom up for same reason.
• If a stain is particularly tough, it may be necessary
to reapply the detergent and use a bristled brush to
scrub the stain. Subsequent power washing after
brushing should successfully complete your cleaning
job.
Cleaning Garden Hose Adapter
• The screen inside the adapter should be cleaned
periodically. Remove it by dragging a thumb over the
screen with enough pressure to pull the screen and
washer out. Rinse it with clean water and then place it
back in the adapter.
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.
14
• 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, then lock the spray
gun by turning the dial to lock ("3" and "9" position).
• 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.
• 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).
Storage
• When your pressure washer session has been
completed, turn off the power switch. Unplug the
power cord from the outlet. Turn off the water supply.
Pull the trigger on the spray gun 2-3 seconds to drain
out the excess water and to release any remaining
water pressure. Do not allow the power washer to run
with no water flowing through it.
• Remove high pressure hose from spray gun and
unscrew the other end of the high pressure hose from
the power washer.
