USING THE GUN/LANCE
See Figures 10 - 11.
For the most effective cleaning, the spray nozzle should
be between 20cm and 60cm from the surface to be
cleaned. If the spray is too close it can damage the
cleaning surface.
NOTE: For greater control and safety, keep both hands
on the unit at all times.
Several different methods of cleaning are available.
Choose the method best suited for your cleaning project.
High Pressure Cleaning:
Squeeze the high pressure trigger on the gun. This will
provide a spray of water at high pressure.
When using the high pressure spray alone, detergent is
not dispensed.
Low Pressure (High Flow) Rinsing:
Move the low pressure (high flow) lever on top of the
trigger handle forward. This will provide a spray of water
at low pressure.
NOTE: When using low pressure (high flow) rinsing only,
engage the high pressure trigger lock-out to prevent
accidental depressing of the high pressure trigger.
■ To dispense soap, turn the detergent dial to the ON
position.
■ To revert back to water only rinsing at low pressure,
turn the detergent dial to OFF.
Combination Cleaning/Rinsing:
To clean AND rinse the area with water at the same time
(for instance, in a heavily soiled area), move the low
pressure (high flow) lever forward and depress the high
pressure trigger.
■ To dispense detergent when using this combination,
turn the detergent dial to the ON position.
■ To rinse with no detergent using this combination,
turn the detergent dial to OFF.
NOTE: Any cleaning or rinsing method using high
pressure spray requires that the on/off switch be in the
ON position.
For methods using low pressure only, the switch may be
in either the ON or OFF position.

USING THE NOZZLES

See Figure 12.
Before starting any cleaning job, determine the best
nozzle for the job. The 25˚ nozzle is for general purpose
or large surfaces. The 0˚ nozzle delivers a fine, powerful
jet used for spot cleaning or high-to-reach areas.
