Setup

Follow these steps to set up your pressure washer for first use:

1. Assembly: Attach the handle and any other components as indicated in the assembly diagram. Ensure all connections are secure.
2. Water Supply Connection:
   • Connect a garden hose (not included) to the water inlet of the pressure washer. Ensure the connection is tight to prevent leaks.
   • The unit supports two water intake methods: direct connection to a water tap or self-priming from a bucket. For self-priming, ensure the bucket is elevated above the unit for optimal flow.
3. High-Pressure Hose Connection: Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the water outlet on the pressure washer and the other end to the spray gun. Tighten securely.
4. Nozzle Selection: Choose the appropriate quick-connect nozzle for your cleaning task and insert it into the spray gun until it clicks into place.
5. Power Connection: Plug the GFCI-protected power cord into a suitable grounded electrical outlet. Press the "RESET" button on the GFCI plug if necessary.
6. Purge Air: Before turning on the power, turn on the water supply fully and squeeze the spray gun trigger to allow water to flow through the system, purging any trapped air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges from the nozzle.

Operating Instructions

Once set up, follow these steps for effective operation:

1. Turn On: After purging air, turn the ON/OFF switch on the pressure washer to the "ON" position. The motor will start.
2. Begin Cleaning: Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to start the high-pressure water flow. The Total Stop System (TSS) will automatically shut off the pump when the trigger is released and restart it when the trigger is squeezed again.
3. Using Spray Nozzles: The 5 quick-connect nozzles provide different spray patterns for various applications:
   • 0° (Red): Pin-point jet for tough spots and concentrated cleaning. Use with extreme caution.
   • 15° (Yellow): Narrow, high-pressure spray for intense cleaning of hard surfaces.
   • 25° (Green): Medium-angle spray for general cleaning of most surfaces.
   • 40° (White): Wide-angle spray for gentle cleaning and rinsing.
   • Soap (Black): Low-pressure spray for applying detergent.
4. Applying Detergent:
   • Fill the 800ML removable detergent tank with pressure washer safe detergent.
   • Attach the black soap nozzle to the spray gun.
   • The pressure washer will automatically draw detergent when operating with the soap nozzle.
   • After applying detergent, remove the soap nozzle and attach a rinsing nozzle (e.g., 25° or 40°) to rinse the surface thoroughly.
5. Shutting Down:
   • Release the spray gun trigger.
   • Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position.
   • Turn off the water supply.
   • Squeeze the spray gun trigger to release any remaining pressure in the system.
   • Disconnect the power cord from the outlet.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your pressure washer:

• Clean Nozzles: If a nozzle becomes clogged, use the included nozzle cleaning tool (or a small paper clip) to clear any obstructions.
• Water Inlet Filter: Regularly check and clean the water inlet filter to prevent debris from entering the pump.
• Hose and Cord Inspection: Inspect the high-pressure hose and power cord for any signs of damage (cuts, abrasions, kinks) before each use. Replace if damaged.
• Detergent Tank Cleaning: After using detergent, rinse the detergent tank thoroughly with clean water to prevent residue buildup.
• Storage:
  • Drain all water from the pump, hose, and spray gun before storing, especially in freezing temperatures.
  • Store the pressure washer in a dry, protected area.
  • Utilize the integrated hose reel and spray gun fixing bracket for neat storage.
• Winterization (for cold climates): If storing in an area where temperatures may drop below freezing, use a pump protector or non-toxic antifreeze solution to prevent damage to the pump.
