4. Setup

1. Assemble Handle: Attach the handle to the main unit if it is not pre-assembled. Ensure it clicks securely into place.

3. Connect High-Pressure Hose: Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the outlet on the pressure washer and the other end to the spray gun. Tighten connections securely by hand.
4. Attach Nozzle/Accessory: Select the desired nozzle or accessory (e.g., 3-in-1 multi-jet nozzle, fixed brush, or patio cleaner) and attach it to the spray gun.
5. Fill Detergent Tank (Optional): If using detergent, fill the integrated detergent tank with a suitable pressure washer detergent.
6. Connect Power: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.

5. Operating Instructions

1. Purge Air: Before starting the motor, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and purge any air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges.
2. Start the Unit: Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" position. The motor will start, and the pump will build pressure.
3. Begin Cleaning: Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to start the high-pressure jet. Release the trigger to stop the water flow and activate the automatic shutdown feature.
4. Adjust Nozzle/Accessory:
   • 3-in-1 Multi-jet Nozzle: Rotate the nozzle head to switch between Fanjet (wide spray), Turbo (rotating pencil jet for stubborn dirt), and Detergent (low pressure for applying soap).
   • Patio Cleaner: Attach for cleaning large flat surfaces. Move it evenly over the surface.
   • Fixed Brush: Use for gentle cleaning with water flow, ideal for vehicles or delicate surfaces.
5. Applying Detergent: With the 3-in-1 nozzle set to the detergent function (or using a dedicated foam lance if available), the pressure washer will draw detergent from the integrated tank. Apply detergent to the surface, allow it to soak (do not let it dry), then rinse with high pressure.
6. Shutting Down:
   1. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position.
   2. Turn off the water supply.
   3. Squeeze the spray gun trigger to release any remaining pressure in the system.
   4. Disconnect the power cord.
   5. Disconnect the garden hose and high-pressure hose.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your pressure washer.

• After Each Use:
  • Drain all water from the pump, hoses, and accessories to prevent freezing damage.
  • Clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth.
  • Rinse the detergent tank thoroughly if detergent was used.
• Water Inlet Filter: Regularly check and clean the water inlet filter to prevent debris from entering the pump.
• Nozzle Cleaning: If the nozzle becomes clogged, use the provided nozzle cleaning tool (if included) or a thin wire to clear any obstructions.
