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.

open end of the hose securely over the pump's fitting.
 Remove the cap from the detergent container and place
the detergent injection hose with filter in the container.
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.
 Install the blue soap nozzle on the spray wand.
 Squeeze the trigger and wait approximately 5 seconds
for the detergent to appear.

overlapping strokes. To prevent streaking, do not allow
detergent to dry on the surface.

 Place the detergent injection hose in a bucket of clean
water.
 Flush for 1-2 minutes (spray clear water through the spray
wand).
 Shut off the engine.
