2. Gently pull the onboard detergent tank out of its storage
position. Remove the cap with PVC tube and ll the tank
with detergent designed specically for use with pressure
washers (Fig. 18).
3. Insert the suction tube back into the tank and cap the tank
closed. Push the tank back into storage position on the
unit.
mCAUTION! Always test the detergent in an
inconspicuous area before use.
4. Turn on the pressure washer. Pull the trigger to operate
the unit. The liquid detergent will automatically mix with
water and be discharged through the nozzle.
5 Apply detergent from the bottom to the top of the dry
surface to be cleaned.
NOTE: Wetting the surface rst 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.
mCAUTION! 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.
7. Rinse with clean water under high pressure. When working
on a vertical surface, rinse from the bottom up, then rinse
from the top down to avoid streaking. Hold the nozzle 6-8
inches away from the work surface at a 45° angle.
8. When you have nished using the detergent injection
system, remove the detergent suction tube from the
detergent tank and insert it into 1.3 gal (5 L) of fresh water.
Siphon water at low pressure for one minute so that all
the detergent is ushed through the system. Remove the
detergent tank and rinse it until it is thoroughly cleaned.
mCAUTION! Failure to follow these cleaning instructions
will cause the injection system to become clogged and
inoperable.
mIMPORTANT! NEVER USE:
Bleach, chlorine products, and other corrosive chemicals
Liquids containing solvents (e.g. paint thinners, gasoline,
oils)
Tri-sodium phosphate products
Ammonia products
Acid-based products
These chemicals will harm the unit and will damage
the cleaning surface.
