disconnect both power conductors to the load circuit in
the event of an interruption in either or both supply
circuit power conductors. If power is interrupted in the
line, the GFCI provides protection even if neutral is
also grounded at the load.
IMPORTANT: The GFCI device will not automatically
reconnect the circuit to the load after power is
restored. After correcting any shorting problem, you
must manually press the reset button to restore power
to the pressure washer.

First, apply an appropriate detergent/solvent solution
to penetrate and loosen grime. Apply detergent at
low pressure to avoid splashing, overspraying
and waste. Leave the solution on surface for 3 to
5 minutes to allow solution to work. Reapply as
necessary to keep surface from drying.
The second step involves cleaning the surface you
have prepared with the pressure washer and then
rinsing it clean.
To apply detergent follow these steps:
Detach the turbo nozzle/wand from the spray gun.
Remove the bottle from the foamer.
Align the locking tabs on the foamer with the
grooves in the spray gun. Push inward and twist
clockwise to lock in place (Figure 6).
NOTE: Make sure that when you lock the foamer into
place, have the hose that goes to the foamer bottle
hanging downward.
Prepare your detergent solution as required by the
manufacturer and fill bottle with the solution.
Attach bottle onto foamer making sure the bottle
hangs down.
Start washer and apply detergent to a dry surface,
starting from the bottom and working up.
To rinse, YOU MUST stop the pressure washer,
remove the foamer and connect the turbo nozzle/
wand.
NOTE: Detergents are most effective applied to a dry
surface.
How to Use the Turbo Nozzle
The turbo nozzle rotates the high pressure stream in a
rapid circular pattern. The high pressure spray is most
effective when the tip of the wand is held between 8 to
24 inches from the surface being cleaned.
Always start the turbo nozzle at a distance, gradually
getting closer to the surface until you get the cleaning
force you want.
CAUTION! The turbo nozzle produces an
extremely high pressure spray which is capable
of removing paint and cutting holes through
surfaces if held too close. Always make sure
the surface you will clean will not be damaged
by the high pressure spray by testing in a
hidden area.
NOTE: You cannot apply detergent with the turbo
nozzle.
How to Use the Utility Brush
The utility brush allows you to scrub surfaces with
water filtering through the bristles.
To attach the utility brush to the spray gun:
Tighten the bayonet adapter to the brush base.
Remove the turbo nozzle/wand from the spray gun if
attached.
Attach the brush with the bayonet adapter to the
spray gun by aligning the locking tabs on the adapter
with the grooves in the spray gun. Push the brush
inward and twist clockwise to lock in place (Figure 7).
NOTE: You must use the bayonet adapter to attach
the brush to the spray gun.
