2. Assembly:
   • Attach the handle to the main unit if it is not pre-assembled.
   • Connect the high-pressure hose to the outlet on the pressure washer and to the spray gun. Ensure connections are hand-tight and secure.
   • Insert the adjustable spray nozzle into the spray gun.
3. Water Supply Connection:

   • Ensure the garden hose is free of kinks and has an adequate water supply.
   • Turn on the water supply fully before starting the pressure washer.
4. Power Connection: Plug the power cable into a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet matches the voltage and frequency specifications of the unit.

5. Operating Instructions

Once the unit is set up, follow these steps for operation:

1. Purging Air: Before turning on the power, 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. Starting the Unit: Turn the ON/OFF switch to the 'ON' position. The motor will start, and the pump will build pressure.
3. Using the Spray Gun:
   • Hold the spray gun firmly with both hands.
   • Point the nozzle at the cleaning surface, maintaining a safe distance.
   • Squeeze the trigger to start the high-pressure water flow.
   • Adjust the spray pattern by rotating the nozzle to achieve the desired intensity and coverage.
4. Detergent Application:
   • Fill the built-in detergent tank with a pressure washer-safe cleaning solution.
   • To apply detergent, typically the pressure needs to be reduced, or a specific detergent nozzle/setting is used. Refer to the spray gun's instructions for detergent mode.
   • Apply detergent to the surface, allow it to soak for a few minutes (do not let it dry), then rinse with high-pressure water.
5. Stopping the Unit:
   • Release the trigger on the spray gun. The Total Stop System (TSS) will automatically shut off the motor.
   • Turn the ON/OFF switch to the 'OFF' position.
   • Turn off the water supply.
   • Squeeze the trigger to release any remaining pressure in the system before disconnecting hoses.

6. Maintenance

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

• Nozzle Cleaning: If the nozzle becomes clogged or the spray pattern is irregular, use the provided nozzle cleaning pin to clear any debris.
• Water Inlet Filter: Periodically check and clean the water inlet filter to prevent debris from entering the pump.
• Hose and Connections: Inspect the high-pressure hose and all connections regularly for wear, damage, or leaks. Replace damaged parts immediately.
• Storage:
  • Drain all water from the pump, hose, and spray gun before storing, especially in freezing temperatures. Run the unit for a few seconds with the water supply off until no more water comes out.
