Generac 2700 PSI Pressure Washer Place the small filter end of the detergent siphoning tube into the detergent container. After you have applied detergent, scour the surface and rinse it clean as follows: Apply safety latch to spray gun. CAUTION! Keep the chemical injection tube from coming in contact with the hot muffler. Remove the black chemical spray tip from the nozzle extension. Make sure the black spray tip is installed. Select and install the desired high pressure spray tip following the instructions “How to Use the Spray Tips” on page 10. NOTE: Detergent cannot be applied with the high pressure spray tips (White, Green,Yellow, or Red).
Make sure the garden hose is connected to the water inlet. Check that the high pressure hose is connected to the spray gun and the pump and start the engine. Keep the spray gun a safe distance from the area you plan to spray. Apply the detergent to a dry surface, starting at lower portion of area to be washed and work upward, using long, even, overlapping strokes. Adjust the spray pressure by sliding the variable pressure contol lever left or right, as shown in Figure 14 on page 8. CAUTION! Firmly grasp spray gun with both hands when using high pressure spray to avoid injury if gun kicks back. Allow the detergent to soak in between 3–5 minutes before washing and rinsing.
Reapply as needed to prevent surface from drying. DO NOT allow the detergent to dry on (prevents streaking). Apply a high pressure spray to a small area and then check the surface for damage. If no damage is found, you can assume it is okay to continue rinsing. IMPORTANT: You must flush the chemical injection system after each use by placing the filter into a bucket of clean water, then run the pressure washer in low pressure for 1-2 minutes. Start at the top of the area to be rinsed, working down with same overlapping strokes as you used for cleaning. Pressure Washer Rinsing Automatic Cool Down System (Thermal Relief) WARNING!
Be extremely careful if you must use the pressure washer from a ladder, scaffolding or any other relatively unstable location.When you press the trigger, the recoil from the initial spray can be very strong.The high pressure spray could cause you to fall if you are too close to the cleaning surface. If you run the engine on your pressure washer for 3-5 minutes without pressing the trigger on the spray gun, circulating water in the pump can reach a temperature between 125°–155°F.At this temperature, the system engages and cools the pump by discharging the warm water onto the ground. This system prevents internal damage to the pump.
