3. Connecting Power

1. Plug the 6 ft power cord into a GFCI-protected 120V electrical outlet.

4. Assembling the Spray Gun and Nozzles

1. Attach the wand extension to the spray gun.

2. Attach the foam cannon to the spray gun in place of a nozzle when soap application is desired.

Operating Instructions

1. Starting the Pressure Washer

1. Ensure all connections are secure and the water supply is turned on.

2. Using Quick-Connect Nozzles

The pressure washer includes four color-coded quick-connect nozzles for various cleaning applications:

• 0° (Red): For concentrated, high-pressure cleaning of stubborn stains. Use with caution.
• 15° (Yellow): For intense cleaning of hard surfaces with moderate dirt.
• 25° (Green): For general cleaning of most surfaces, providing a wider spray pattern.
• 40° (White): For delicate surfaces or light cleaning, offering the widest and gentlest spray.

3. Using the Foam Cannon

Attach the foam cannon to the spray gun. The foam cannon mixes detergent with the high-pressure water to create a rich lather, ideal for cleaning vehicles, siding, or other surfaces requiring soap application. After applying soap, switch to a rinse nozzle (e.g., 25° or 40°) to rinse the surface thoroughly.

4. Automatic Hose Retraction

After use, simply release the hose, and the automatic rewind system will retract the 100ft pressure hose neatly back into the unit. This mechanism prevents kinks, snags, and tears, ensuring effortless storage and prolonging hose life.

Maintenance

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

• After Each Use: Flush the system with clean water to remove any detergent residue. Disconnect the water supply and power.
• Nozzle Cleaning: If nozzles become clogged, use the included nozzle cleaning tool to clear debris.
• Hose Inspection: Periodically inspect the 100ft pressure hose for any signs of wear, cuts, or leaks. Replace if damaged.
• Storage: Store the unit in a dry, frost-free environment. For prolonged storage, especially in cold climates, consider using a pump protector or antifreeze solution to prevent damage.
