Adjustable Spray Nozzle
The adjustable spray nozzle can adjust from fan to jet in the high-pressure position only. The spray is
adjusted by turning the nozzle (See Figure 7)
Caution: The jet spray adjustment is very aggressive. We recommend that for most
cleaning application, a 20 degrees spray angle should be used to avoid damage to the surface
being sprayed.
Note
: The pressure of the spray on the surface you are cleaning increases as you move the
wand closer to the surface.
To increase to a fan spray, gun counter-clockwise. To decrease angle to jet spray, gun clockwise
Cleaning Chemical Use
Caution: Only use cleaning detergents or products recommended for pressure
washers.
Caution: Fill and flush the reservoir with clean water after detergents use.

Cleaning Techniques
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks can be solved with water alone, but for
most tasks it is advantageous to use a detergent. A detergent ensures a quick soaking of the dirt
allowing the high-pressure water to penetrate and remove the dirt more effectively.
The low-pressure position provides a gentle application of detergent. This position is also
recommended to rinse a surface after wax application or for other applications which require the
low-pressure of a garden hose. Low-Pressure is the equivalent of a garden hose set at the lowest
output to properly apply detergent. For detergent application, slide collar according to Figure 7.
Application of Detergent
1. Apply the solution to a
dry work surface.
Note: Wetting the surface first is not recommended, as it dilutes the detergent and reduces
its cleaning ability.
On a vertical surface, apply horizontally from side to side starting from the bottom to avoid
streaking.
2. Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing.
Caution: Damage may occur to painted surface if chemical is allowed to dry on the
surface. Wash and rinse a small section at a time. Avoid working on hot surfaces or in
direct sunlight.
3. Rinse with clean water under high-pressure. On a vertical surface, first rinse from the bottom up,
then rinse from the top to the down. Hold nozzle 6 to 8 frame, the work surface at a 45° angle using the
flat spray as a peeling tool rather than a scrub brush.
Note: Insure that the chemical injection system is completely clean to switching from one
detergent to another.
Application Pressure Washer Liquid Vehicle Wax.
1. Immediately after cleaning, apply pressure washer liquid wax using low-pressure. Pour wax into
detergent solution reservoir.
2. Apply the wax sparing in an even layer. Apply to wet surfaces from the bottom up for even
distribution and to avoid streaking.
3. Rinse off the surplus wax.
Note: If surplus wax is not removed a hazy finish may result.
4. Wipe dry to reduce water spotting.

l it is thoroughly cleaned.
Note: Failure to clean properly will cause the injection system to become clogged and
inoperable.
Stop the machine by pressing ON/OFF button
Disconnect electrical plug
Turn off water and depressurize unit by squeezing trigger.
Warning: Turn off water supply and squeeze trigger to depressurize the unit. Failure to
do so could result in personal injury due to discharge of high-pressure water.

Connections
Connections on pressure washer hoses, gun and spray wand should be cleaned regularly and
lubricated with non-water soluble grease.
Nozzle
The high-pressure/low-pressure adjustment of the nozz
le should be lubricated with non-water soluble
grease regularl
y.
Clogging of the nozzle causes the pressure to be too h
igh and cleaning is immediately required.
1. Make sure that the pressure washer is turned off and that the power cord is unplugged.
2. Make sure that the water supply is turned off, and that the trigger is squeezed to depressurize the
unit.
3. Separate the front-wand from the back-wand.
4.
Clear the nozzle with tip cleaner.
5.
Flush the nozzle backwards with water.
6. Reconnect the front-wand to the back-wand.
Reconnect and restart the pressure washer and depress the trigger on the spray gun. If the pressure
is still too high, repeat above items 1-4.

Maintenance
15
Lubrication
The pressure washer is designed with a permanent lubrication system. Conventional oil check and oil
changes are not necessary.
Note: In case of oil leakage, contact the ALL-POWER Customer Service Department.
A small amount of leakage is normal.
Water Screen
The pressure washer is equipped with a water inlet screen to protect the pump.
Caution: If the screen is not kept clean, the flow of water to the pressure washer will be
restricted and the pump may be damaged.
To clean inner water screen, remove quick connect and remove the filter screen from the pump
inlet. (See page 6, item 9)
Back-flush screen to clean
Replace screen and quick connect immediately to prevent any foreign matter from entering the
pump.
Caution: Do not damage the screen while removing or cleaning. Any foreign particles
entering the pump may damage the pump.
Cooling System
The air vents, located in and around the pressure washer, must be kept clean and free of any
obstructions to ensure proper air-cooling of the motor during operation.
Caution: Prevent water from penetrating the vents of the pressure washer to minimize
the risk of damage to the machine and to reduce the risk of shock to the operator.
Caution: Always store your pressure washer in a location where the temperature will
not fall below 0°C (32 °F). The pump in this machine is susceptible to permanent damage
if frozen. Freeze damage is not covered by the warranty.
If you must store your pressure washer in a location where the temperature is below 0°C (32 °F), you
can minimize the chance of damage to your machine by utilizing the following procedure:
1. Stop the pressure washer
2. Squeeze the trigger of the discharge gun to drain all water from the wand and hose.
3. Detach supply hose and high-pressure hose.
4. Restart pressure washer and let it run briefly (about 5 seconds) until water no longer discharges
from the pressure outlet.
