Lubricate OoRings

Lubrication of o-rings is extremely important for installation

and operation. The useof a lubricant (petroleumor synthetic

grease)during assembly helpsseat o-rings properly and

provides an improved seal. it also helps protect the o-ring

from damageby abrasion, pinching or cutting and extends

the life of the o-ring.

HOTICE ALWAYSapplya small amount of lubricant on o-

rings prior to assemblingthe garden hoseto the pump

inlet (A), high pressure hoseto pump outlet (B), high

pressure hose(C), spray gun (D), and nozzleextension(E).

Lubricateaii connections shownbelow, following these

instructions:

1. inspect and cleanconnecting surfaces prior to

lubrication and assembly.

2. Uselubricants sparingly during assembly; a light film is

all that is required.

3. Usea small brush or cotton swab to apply grease

directly to ooringswherethey are not accessible(QC

fitting, M22 fitting).

Cleaning and Applying Detergent

WARNING ChemicalBurn Hazard.

Chemicals could cause burns resulting in death

or serious injury.

* DO NOTuse caustic liquid with pressure washer,

* UseONLYpressurewasher safe detergents/soaps, Follow all

manufacturers instructions,

To apply detergent, fallow these steps:

1, Reviewuse of spray tips.

2. Preparedetergent solution as required byjob.

3. Placesmall filter end of detergent siphoning tube into

detergent container.

whib applying detergent.

NOTICE Contact with the hot muffler could damage

detergent siphoning tube.

, When insertingthe siphon into a detergent solution bottle, route

the tube so asto keep it from inadvertently contactingthe hot

muffler,

4. Make sure black detergentspray tip is installed.

NOTICE Detergentcannot beapplied with the high pressure

spray tips (White, Green,Yellow or Red).
