Detergents
• Use detergents designed for power washers.
Hardware stores or home centers may oer
detergents for dierent cleaning projects. The
cleaning solution should be the consistency of
water in order to prevent detergent bottle and
spray tip from clogging.
• This system applies detergent under low pressure
using the black spray tip only. The cleaning power
of the detergent is enhanced when applied with
low pressure and enough time is given to break
down dirt and grime.
• When nished applying detergent, remove excess
detergent from the on board tank and run one
tank of clear water using the low pressure black
spray tip to thoroughly clean all excess detergent
out.
• Remove and clean the detergent lter on the
siphon tube to avoid detergent from caking and
clogging the lter.
• ALWAYS spray detergent on a dry surface.
• DO NOT pre-soak area. Wetting the surface rst
dilutes the detergent and reduces its cleaning
ability.
• DO NOT allow detergent to dry on surface. On
vertical surfaces, apply detergent to lower
surfaces rst and work your way up to prevent
streaks in the dirt and grime. Rinse detergent
by pressure washing from bottom up for same
reason.
• For tough stains, it may be necessary to reapply
the detergent and use a bristled brush to scrub
the stain. Subsequent power washing after
brushing should successfully remove dirt.

Cleaning Spray Tips
A clogged spray tip can signicantly reduce water

spraying.
1. Turn o the unit and the water supply.
2. Relieve any pressure trapped in the hose by
squeezing the trigger 2-3 times, then lock the
spray gun.
3. ALWAYS remove spray tips before cleaning.
4. Using the spray tip cleaner provided, insert the
wire into the spray tip hole and slide back and
forth until debris is dislodged.
