STOPPING YOUR
PRESSURE WASHER
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.
• If the pressure washer is running, release the
trigger.
DANGER! Releasing the trigger will shut off
the motor but does not shut off the unit. You
must also place the Master On/Off Switch to
the “OFF” position.
• Place Master On/Off switch in “Off” position.
Simply shutting OFF motor will not release
pressure in the system. Squeeze the trigger on the
gun to relieve the pressure in the hose.
Note: You cannot apply detergent with the turbo
nozzle.
Applying Detergent With Foamer
IMPORTANT: Use soaps designed specifically for
pressure washers. Household detergents could
damage the pump.
NOTE: Never use garden hose inlet to siphon
detergent or wax.
DANGER: Never leave your pressure
washer unattended even when turned off.
DANGER: You MUST attach all hoses and the spray
gun before you start the motor.
HOW TO USE YOUR
WASHER
WARNING! Before removing any spray gun
extension, be sure to turn off the pressure
washer and relieve pressure by pressing the
trigger. You could be injured if you try to
remove an extension if the pressure washer is
running and there is pressure in the system.
Pressure washers are useful cleaning tools designed
to clean almost any surface in two easy steps.
You now should know how to START your pressure
washer and how to STOP it. The information in this
section will tell you how to adjust the spray pattern
and apply detergent or any other cleaning chemicals.
• 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 solution from drying.
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.
• The second step involves cleaning the surface you
have prepared with the pressure washer and then
rinsing it clean.
Always start the turbo nozzle at a distance, gradually
getting closer to the surface until you get the cleaning
force you want.

Figure 9 — Connecting the Foamer.
To apply detergent follow these steps:
• Detach the turbo nozzle extension from the spray
gun.
• To rinse, YOU MUST, stop the pressure washer,
remove the foamer and connect the adjustable
nozzle extension.
Note Detergents are most effective applied to a dry
surface.
• Remove the bottle from the foamer.
• Align the locking tabs on the foamer with the groves
in the gun. Push inward and twist clockwise to lock
in place. (Note: make sure that when you lock the
foamer into place you have the hose that connects
to the foamer bottle hanging downward.)
To Clean
Start at lower portion of area to be washed and work
upward, using long, even overlapping strokes.
Detergent or degreaser works best when you apply it
to a dry surface first. Let it set for 3–5 minutes before
washing and rinsing.
• Prepare your detergent solution as required by the
manufacturer and fill bottle with the solution.
• Attach bottle back onto foamer making sure the
bottle hangs down.
Rinse
• Start washer and apply detergent to a dry surface,
starting from the bottom and working up.
Start at the top of area to be rinsed, working down
with the same action as for cleaning.

high pressure hose. Replace it with another
hose that meets minimum pressure rating of
your pressure washer.
High pressure hose can develop leaks from wear,
kinking, and abuse. Check all hoses for cuts, leaks,
abrasions or bulging of cover, or damage or
movement of couplings. If any of these conditions
exist, replace hose immediately.
PREPARING THE UNIT FOR
STORAGE
Water should not remain in the unit for long periods of
time. Sediments of minerals can deposit on pump
parts and “freeze” pump action. If you do not plan to
use the Pressure Washer for more than 30 days,
follow this procedure:
Check Gun and Wand
1. Shut off the pressure washer, unplug it and let it
cool, then remove all hoses.
Examine hose connection and make sure it is secure.
Test trigger by pressing it and making sure it springs
back into place when released. Put safety latch in ON
position and test trigger. You should not be able to
press trigger.
2. Store the pressure washer and its components in
such a way as to protect it from freezing.
5. Store in a clean, dry area. Ideally, the unit should
be stored in a frost–free room.
6. Coil the high pressure hose and inspect it for
damage. Cuts in the hose or fraying of it could result
in leaks and loss of pressure. Should any damage be
found, replace the hose. DO NOT attempt to repair a
damaged hose. Replace the hose with the genuine
Generac part.
7. Drain water from hose and properly store it to
prevent cuts and general wear.

pump.
