Be certain to wear protective safety attire as stated on pg.10.2. Prepare detergent solution according to label directions. Never pumpacids, alkaline, abrasive fluids or solvents through the unit. Due to theunknown and often corrosive characteristics of many detergents commonlyused in the pressure washer cleaning industry, it is recommended to useonly mild detergents with this unit.3. Some units are equipped with adjustable detergent knobs. Locate theclear vinyl hose which leads to the pump head.a. If your injector is not equipped with an adjustment knob, the detergentratio is preset and cannot be adjusted.b. If your injector is equipped with an adjustment knob on the pumphead, you may adjust the amount of detergent desired by turning theknob completely counterclockwise to set at the maximum siphonrate.4. Immerse the detergent strainer (10) into the detergent solution to allowdetergent to siphon.5. With the trigger gun locked in the "OFF" position, securely quick-connectthe detergent spray nozzle (#6540° BLACK) into the end of the wand.NOTE: This injection system is designed to apply detergents under low pressureonly. It will not allow detergent solutions to be introduced into the systemunless the nozzle assembly is in the low pressure detergent mode.6. To apply solution; unlock the trigger gun and squeeze the trigger. In a fewmoments a detergent/water mixture will exit the low pressure nozzle. Startspraying the lower portion of the surface being cleaned and move up,using long overlapping strokes. Applying from the bottom up helps avoidstreaking. Allow to soak briefly. DO NOT allow detergent solution to dryon the surface. (Avoid working on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight tominimize the chances of the detergent drying, which may result indamaging painted surfaces.) Be certain to rinse a small section at a time.7. To rinse; lock the trigger gun in the "OFF" position, securely quick-connectthe desired high pressure nozzle into the end of the wand. Unlock thetrigger gun and spray. It will take about 30 seconds to purge all detergentfrom the line. For best rinsing results, start at the top and work down.8. Siphon a gallon of water through the low pressure detergent injectionsystem after each use. This prevents the possibility of corrosion ordetergent residue causing mechanical problems during the next use.DETNOZ.TIF/D1NOZCON.TIF/D10MGEN037/53089/DLQUICK CONNECT DETERGENTSHUTDOWN:1.
