Pressure Washer Rinsing; Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube; Automatic Cool Down System (Thermal Relief) - Craftsman 580.676661 Manuel D'utilisation

3. Place filter end of detergent siphoning tube into
detergent container.
CAUTION
Keep the chemical injection tube from coming in
contact with the hot muffler.
• When inserting the filter into a detergent solution bottle,
route the tube so as to keep it from inadvertently
contacting the hot muffler.
4. Make sure black spray tip is installed.
NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied with the high
pressure spray tips (White, Yellow, or Red).
5. Make sure garden hose is connected to water
inlet. Check that high pressure hose is connected
to spray gun and pump and start engine.
6. Apply detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower
portion of area to be washed and work upward,
using long, even, overlapping strokes.
7. Allow detergent to soak in between 3–5 minutes
before washing and rinsing. Reapply as needed to
prevent surface from drying. DO NOT allow
detergent to dry on (prevents streaking).
IMPORTANT: You must flush the chemical injection
system after each use by placing the filter into a
bucket of clean water, then run the pressure washer in
low pressure for 1-2 minutes.

Pressure Washer Rinsing

For Rinsing:
1. Apply trigger lock to spray gun.
2. Remove black spray tip from nozzle extension.
3. Select and install desired high pressure spray tip
following instructions in "How to Use Spray Tips".
4. Keep spray gun a safe distance from the area you
plan to spray.
WARNING
High pressure spray could cause you to fall
if you are too close to the cleaning surface.
• Keep spray nozzle between 8 to 24 inches away from
cleaning surface.
• Operate this unit on a stable surface.
• Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure
washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively
unstable location.
• Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high
pressure spray to avoid injury if gun kicks back.
5. Apply a high pressure spray to a small area and
then check the surface for damage. If no damage is
found, you can assume it is okay to continue rinsing.
6. Start at top of area to be rinsed, working down with
same overlapping strokes as you used for cleaning.

Cleaning Detergent Siphoning Tube

If you used the detergent siphoning tube, you must
flush it with clean water before stopping the engine.
1. Place chemical injection siphon/filter in a bucket
full of clean water.
2. Attach black spray tip.
3. Flush for 1-2 minutes.
4. Shut off engine.
IMPORTANT: Simply shutting OFF engine will not
release pressure in the system. When the engine has
shut down, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun
to relieve the pressure in the hose.
Automatic Cool Down System
(Thermal Relief)
If you run the engine on your pressure washer for
3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray
gun, circulating water in the pump can reach
temperatures above 125°F. The system engages to
cool the pump by discharging the warm water onto
the ground.
