Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Check for any damage.
2. Assembly:
   • Attach the wheels to the main unit if not already pre-assembled.
   • Connect the high-pressure hose to the pressure washer outlet and the spray gun. Ensure connections are secure.
   • Select the desired nozzle (rotary or adjustable) and attach it to the lance, then connect the lance to the spray gun.
3. Water Connection:
   • Connect a garden hose to the quick-connect water inlet on the pressure washer. Ensure the inspectable filter is clean and properly seated.
   • Connect the other end of the garden hose to a water tap.
   • Turn on the water tap fully to ensure a steady water supply to the pressure washer.

4. Electrical Connection: Plug the power cord into a suitable grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet meets the power requirements of the unit (2400 W).
5. Priming the Pump: Before turning on the power, squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and expel any air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges from the nozzle. This prevents damage to the pump.

Operating Instructions

1. Starting the Unit: Once primed, turn on the pressure washer using the ON/OFF switch. The motor will start.
2. Using the Spray Gun:
   • Point the nozzle at the surface to be cleaned, keeping a safe distance.
   • Squeeze the trigger to activate the high-pressure water jet.
   • Adjust the spray pattern using the adjustable jet nozzle as needed. The rotary jet nozzle provides a more concentrated, powerful spray for stubborn dirt.

   • Attach the foam kit to the spray gun.
   • Activate the spray gun to apply foam to the desired surface.
   • Allow the foam to dwell for a few minutes before rinsing with clear water.
4. Stopping the Unit: Release the trigger. The Total Stop System will turn off the motor. For prolonged breaks or when finished, turn off the ON/OFF switch and disconnect the power.

Maintenance

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

• After Each Use:
  • Turn off the unit and water supply.
  • Squeeze the trigger to release any remaining pressure in the system.
  • Disconnect the water hose and power cord.
  • Rewind the high-pressure hose onto the static hose reel using the locking system to keep it tidy.
  • Clean the exterior of the unit with a damp cloth.
• Water Inlet Filter: Regularly inspect and clean the water inlet filter to prevent impurities from entering the pump. Remove the quick-connect fitting and rinse the filter under running water.
• Nozzle Cleaning: If the spray pattern becomes irregular or pressure drops, the nozzle may be clogged. Use the provided nozzle cleaning tool (if applicable) or a thin wire to clear any obstructions.
• Storage: Store the pressure washer in a dry, frost-free environment. If storing for extended periods, especially in cold climates, ensure all water is drained from the pump and hoses to prevent freezing damage.
