To disconnect a nozzle from the spray wand once the cleaning
job is complete:
4. Turn off the pressure washer and remove the water
bucket/shut off the water supply. Pull the trigger to release

WARNING!
Do not make changes to the nozzle while
the trigger is engaged. Doing so could result in damage to the
pressure washer or injury to the user.
Working with Detergents
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks
can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning
with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal.
m
WARNING!
Use only detergents specifically designed
for use with pressure washers, such as Sun Joe
DECK WASH (SPX-HDC1G), Sun Joe
WASH (SPX-FCS1G), or Sun Joe
(SPX-APC1G). DO NOT USE household detergents, acids,
alkaline solutions, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions. These could damage the pressure
washer. Many detergents may require mixing prior to use.
Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on the solution
bottle.
1. Remove the spray wand attachment from the trigger gun.
2. Remove the soap dispenser sprayer from the bottle and
fill with mixed detergent. Put the sprayer back on when
finished (Fig. 23).

4. Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate
the unit.
m
CAUTION!
Always test the detergent in an
inconspicuous area before use.
5. Apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry
surface to be cleaned.
NOTE: Wetting the surface first is not recommended as it
dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning ability.
6. Allow the detergent to remain on the surface for a short
time before rinsing. Do not allow the detergent to dry on
the surface.
m
CAUTION!
Damage may occur to painted surfaces if
the detergent is allowed to dry on the surface. Wash and rinse
a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in
direct sunlight.
m
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these cleaning instructions
will cause the injection system to become clogged and
inoperable.
