2. Safety Instructions

Always follow basic safety precautions when using this product to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or serious injury.

• Read All Instructions: Familiarize yourself with the controls and proper use of the pressure washer.
• Grounding Instructions: This product must be grounded. If it malfunctions or breaks down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Personal Safety: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses, hearing protection, and protective clothing. Do not operate the pressure washer barefoot or with open-toed footwear.
• Avoid Direct Spray: Never direct the water spray at people, pets, electrical devices, or the unit itself. High-pressure spray can cause serious injury.
• Secure Connections: Ensure all hose connections are tight and secure before operating. The unit features a secure hose lock to prevent leaks.
• Trigger Lock: Utilize the handle safety lock on the spray gun to prevent accidental activation when not spraying.
• Water Source: Connect the pressure washer to a cold water supply only. Do not use hot water.
• Electrical Safety: Do not operate the pressure washer if the power cord or plug is damaged. Avoid using extension cords unless absolutely necessary and ensure they are rated for outdoor use and the appliance's power requirements.
• Children and Bystanders: Keep children and bystanders away from the operating area.
• Stable Operation: The anti-tipping design and wheels enhance stability. Always operate on a stable, level surface.

4. Setup

Follow these steps to assemble and prepare your pressure washer for use.

1. Attach Wheels and Handle: Secure the wheels and handle to the main unit according to the diagrams in the quick start guide (if provided).
2. Connect High-Pressure Hose: Connect one end of the high-pressure hose to the pressure washer's outlet and the other end to the spray gun. Ensure the hose lock mechanism is engaged for a secure, leak-proof connection.
3. Connect Water Supply: Attach a garden hose (not included) to the water inlet connector on the pressure washer. Ensure the connection is tight. The pressure washer can draw water directly from a faucet or a bucket. If drawing from a bucket, ensure the inlet hose is fully submerged and free of air.
4. Connect Power: Plug the power cable into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet meets the power requirements of the unit.
5. Purge Air from System: Before turning on the power, turn on the water supply. Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and expel any trapped air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges from the nozzle.

5. Operating Instructions

Once assembled and connected, follow these steps for safe operation.

1. Select Nozzle: Choose the appropriate quick-connect nozzle for your cleaning task (refer to Section 6). Insert the nozzle firmly into the spray gun until it clicks into place.
2. Turn On Power: Flip the ON/OFF switch on the pressure washer to the 'ON' position. The motor will start.
3. Begin Cleaning: Aim the spray gun at the surface to be cleaned, keeping a safe distance. Release the safety lock on the spray gun handle and squeeze the trigger to begin spraying.
4. Adjust Distance: Adjust the distance between the nozzle and the cleaning surface to control the cleaning intensity. Start further away and move closer as needed.
5. Using the Foam Cannon: Fill the external foam cannon with appropriate pressure washer detergent. Attach it to the spray gun. The foam cannon allows for efficient application of soap before high-pressure rinsing.
6. Shutting Down: When finished, release the spray gun trigger and engage the safety lock. Turn the pressure washer's ON/OFF switch to 'OFF'. Turn off the water supply. Squeeze the spray gun trigger to release any remaining pressure in the system.
7. Disconnect: Disconnect the garden hose and then the high-pressure hose.
