Using The Nozzles - Homelite UT80720 Manuel D'utilisation

High Pressure Cleaning:
Squeeze the high pressure trigger located beneath the rear
handle. This will provide a spray of water at high pressure.
Low Pressure (High Flow) Cleaning:
Move the low pressure (high flow) lever on top of the trigger han-
dle forward. This will provide a spray of water at low pressure.
NOTE: When using low pressure (high flow) cleaning only,
depress the high pressure trigger lock-out to prevent ac-
cidental depressing of the high pressure trigger.
Combination Cleaning/Rinsing:
To apply a high pressure stream and rinse the area with water
at the same time (for instance, in a heavily soiled area), move
the low pressure (high flow) lever forward and depress the
high pressure trigger.
NOTE: Any cleaning or rinsing method using high pressure
spray requires that the ON/OFF switch be in the ON position.
For methods using low pressure only, the switch may be in
either the ON or OFF position.

USING THE NOZZLES

See Figure 15.
Before starting any cleaning job, determine the best nozzle
for the job. The 15˚ nozzle is for general purpose or large
surfaces and the turbo nozzle gives up to 50% more clean-
ing power.

15º • Removing marine growth from boats and
marine equipment
• Removing rust from steel and oxidation
from aluminum
• Removing grease or dirt from equipment
• Removing paint from wood, masonry or
metal
Pencil jet nozzle rotates at high speed to
increase intensity and cleaning area of the
spray. Spray pattern will cover an area from 4
Turbo
to 8 in. wide depending on distance between
wand and surface being cleaned.

WARNING:
NEVER change nozzles without locking the lock-out on
the trigger handle and never point the wand at your face
or at others. The quick-connect feature contains small
springs that could eject the nozzle with some force. Fail-
ure to heed this can cause personal injury.
 Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water sup-
ply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
 Engage the lock-out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock-out until it clicks into the slot.
 Pull back the quick-connect collar.
 Push the nozzle into place in the spray wand.
 Push the collar forward so that the nozzle is secured
properly. Check to see that the nozzle is secure.
To disconnect a nozzle from the trigger handle once the
cleaning job is complete:
 Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water sup-
ply. Pull trigger to release water pressure.
 Engage the lock-out on the trigger handle by pushing up
on the lock-out until it clicks into the slot.
 Remove the nozzle by placing hand over nozzle then
pulling back the quick-connect collar. Place nozzle in the
nozzle storage area on the top of the machine.
USING THE HIGH PRESSURE HOSE
The high pressure hose features an outer covering that pro-
vides strength to the hose. If the outer covering becomes
damaged, the hose must be replaced immediately. Do not
use a high pressure hose if the outer covering is damaged.
To prevent damage to the outer covering:
 Inspect the hose before every use.
 Fully unwrap and straighten hose before use.
 Do not allow the high pressure hose to be kinked.
 Keep hose away from hot surfaces and sharp edges.
 Do not pull unit by high pressure hose.
 Do not allow hose to be crushed or wrapped around
objects.
