What is the difference between PSI and GPM?

PSI is the pressure (lbs. per square inch) at which the water exits the nozzle. The GPM (gallons per minute) refers to the amount of water volume that exits the nozzle during a specified amount of time.

How do I operate the soap tank?

Fill the soap tank with a selected detergent. Secure the soap tank cap. Adjust the dial on the cap to allow for a lesser or greater flow of soap. For best results, the soap nozzle needs to be utilized to draw soap from the soap tank.

How do I change the nozzles?

The included nozzles have standard ¼” fittings that insert directly into the end of the spray wand by depressing the brass ring on the wand, inserting the nozzle, then releasing the ring. The nozzle should then “snap” into place.

What is the cause of a sputtering type of sensation felt during operation?

Primarily after initial startup, residual air can still be trapped in the hose. Continue to hold down the trigger of the wand to allow the water to flow through the hose and expel any remaining air.

Can I use the Hydroshot accessories on this product?

The Hydroshot accessories are only designed (and rated) for use on the Hydroshot and cannot be used on other pressure washing equipment.

CORD CONNECTED, DOUBLE INSULATED PRODUCTS

1.GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION

This pressure washer is provided with a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power-supply cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.

2. SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCE

In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double-insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated product must be identical to the parts they replace.

3. EXTENSION CORDS

Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use. These extension cords are identified by a marking “Acceptable for use with outdoor appliances; store indoors while not in use.” Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating of the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension cord.

SAFETY RULES FOR EXTENSION CORD

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord. To reduce the risk of disconnection of appliance cord from the extension cord during operating:

i) Make a knot as shown in Figure 1; or

ii) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining straps or connectors described in this manual.
