WASHING WITH DETERGENT
See Figures 17 - 19.
As sold, this unit is designed for use with "downstream"
pressure washer detergents. To convert for use with
"upstream" detergents, contact an authorized customer
service center for more information.
USE ONLY DETERGENTS DESIGNED FOR PRESSURE
WASHERS; Do not use household detergents, acids,
alkalines, bleaches, solvents, flammable material, or
industrial grade solutions, which can damage the pump.
Many detergents may require mixing prior to use. Prepare
cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle. Always
test in an inconspicuous area before beginning.
 Remove the cap from the detergent tank and pour pressure
washer detergent in the tank. Replace cap on tank.
NOTE: The machine setting of this unit is 20:1, which
usually allows the use of 1 gallon pressure washer
detergent without further dilution. Check your detergent
instructions to be sure additional dilution is not necessary.

the spray selector on the nozzle to either the blue short
range detergent ( ) or blue long range detergent ( )
setting.

overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow
detergent to dry on the surface.
For long range detergent application:
With the nozzle installed on the spray wand and the engine
shut off, rotate the spray selector to the long range detergent
