Select desired ProiectPro TMnozzle:

For delicate rinse (lower pressure and higher

flow), for gentle cleaning of cars/trucks, boats, RV's,

patio furniture, lawn equipment, etc. select yellow

Delicate ProiectPro TMnozzle (Figure 13).

For general rinsing (medium pressure and medium

flow), ideal for most all purpose cleaning such as

home siding, brid< patios, wood decks, driveways

and sidewalks_ garage floors_ etc., select orange

General ProiectPro TMnozzle (Figure 14).

Section 4: Operation

For maximum rinsing (higher pressure and lower

fiow)_ for stubborn or hard to reach surface such

as second story surfaces, paint removal, oil stains_

ProjectPro TMnozzle (Figure IS).

To apply detergenL applies project specific cleaners

to help break down stubborn dirt and grime on a

variety of surfaces, select black ProjectPro TM

cleaning detergent nozzle (Figure 16).

Now to Use the Turbo Nozzle

The turbo nozzle rotates the high pressure stream in a

rapid circular pattern.Always start the turbo nozzle at a

distance, gradually getting closer to the surface until you

get the cleaning force you want.

CAUTION

Always make sure the surface you will clean wiJJnot be

damaged by the high pressure spray by testing in a hidden area,
