4. Operating Instructions
Before operating, ensure your pressure washer meets the minimum requirements (above 2000 PSI & 2 GPM). Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection.
- Connect to Pressure Washer: Attach the high-pressure hose of your pressure washer to the inlet plug on the surface cleaner's spray gun.
- Start Pressure Washer: Connect the high-pressure hose to your pressure washer and start the pressure washer as described in your pressure washer manual.
- Begin Cleaning: Walk slowly behind the cleaning deck, allowing the surface cleaner to work effectively. Avoid lifting the cover when cleaning to prevent injury or damage.
- Check for Streaking/Swirling: If streaking or swirling occurs, slow your pace. If the issue persists, the nozzles may be clogged or your machine may not have enough working pressure.

5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your surface cleaner:
- Nozzle Maintenance: If excessive pump pressure is felt (a pulsing sensation while squeezing the trigger), it may indicate a clogged or dirty nozzle. Turn off the pressure washer and shut off the water supply. Disconnect the surface cleaner from the high-pressure hose. Use a straightened paper clip or the provided nozzle cleaning tool to free any foreign materials clogging the nozzle. Reconnect and test.
- Swivel Maintenance: The fully sealed and pre-greased swivel minimizes maintenance needs. Avoid disassembling the swivel unless necessary.
- Storage: Store the surface cleaner in a dry, protected area when not in use.
