HOW TO APPLY CHEMICALS
AND CLEANING SOLVENTS
Applying chemicals or cleaning solvents is a low pressure operation.
NOTE: Use only soaps and chemicals designed for pressure washer
use. DO NOT USE BLEACH.
To Apply Chemicals:
1. Make sure the chemical hose is pressed onto the barbed fi tting (F)
located near high-pressure hose (E). (Fig. 7)
2. The other end of the chemical hose should be inserted into a
chemical container containing the appropriate pressure washer
cleaning solution.
NOTE: For approximately every 7 gallons of water pumped 1 gallon of
chemical/cleaning solution will be used.
3. Insert soap nozzle (per previous chart) into spray wand, see Use
Spray Wand paragraph in this section.
NOTE: Chemicals and soaps will not siphon when using any quick
connect nozzle other than the black soap nozzle.
W A R N I N G
To reduce the risk of injury, read the pressure washer instruction manual and the engine instruction manual
before starting pressure washer.
D A N G E R
RISK OF FLUID INJECTION AND LACERATION. When using the high-pressure setting, DO NOT allow the high-pres-
sure spray to come in contact with unprotected skin, eyes, or with any pets or animals. Serious injury will occur.
• Your washer operates at fl uid pressures and velocities high enough to penetrate human and animal fl esh, which could result in amputa-
tion or other serious injury. Leaks caused by loose fi ttings or worn or damaged hoses can result in injection injuries. DO NOT TREAT FLUID
INJECTION AS A SIMPLE CUT! See a physician immediately!
W A R N I N G
RISK OF FIRE, ASPHYXIATION AND BURN. NEVER fi ll fuel tank when engine is running or hot. Do not smoke
when fi lling fuel tank.
• NEVER fi ll fuel tank completely. Fill tank to 1/2" below bottom of fi ller neck to provide space for fuel expansion. Wipe any fuel spillage from
engine and equipment before starting engine.
• NEVER run engine in doors or in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly
gas.
• DO NOT let hoses come in contact with very hot engine muffl er during or immediately after use of your pressure washer. Damage to hoses
from contact with hot engine surfaces will NOT be covered by warranty.
C A U T I O N
RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE. NEVER pull water supply hose to move pressure washer. This could damage hose and/
or pump inlet.
• DO NOT use hot water, use cold water only.
• NEVER turn water supply off while pressure washer engine is running or damage to
pump will result.
• DO NOT stop spraying water for more than two minutes at a time. Pump operates in bypass mode when spray gun trigger is not pressed. If
pump is left in bypass mode for more than two minutes internal components of the pump can be damaged.
