and is reinforced.
The appliance should never be used on the drinking water
u
supply without a backflow valve. Water that has passed
the backflow valve is considered undrinkable.
Cleaning a Surface
To start the pressure washer, press the ON button ( 9 ).
u
Confirm that the water faucet is open or use any other
u
water source so that water will be supplied to the pressure
washer unit.
The best angle for spraying water against a cleaning
u
surface is 45 °.
Spraying head on tends to cause dirt particles to imbed
u
in the surface.
When working on vertical surfaces, it is best to apply
u
detergent starting at the bottom and working upwards
which will prevent the detergent from sliding down and
causing streaks.
To disengage the spray handle, release the trigger.
u
NOTE: Excessive pump pressure may be the result of a
clogged nozzle. Always turn OFF the pressure washer unit
and unplug the unit before attempting to unclog a nozzle.
Detergents (J1, J2, J3, J4)
For steps on attaching the detergent/soap bottle, please refer
to Attaching Soap Bottle under Assembly
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time
and assist in the removal of difficult stains. Some detergents
have been customized for pressure washer use on specific
cleaning tasks.
The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying them
to a surface and giving the chemicals time to break down
the dirt and grime. Detergents work best when applied at
low pressure.
The combination of chemical action and high pressure rinsing
is very effective.
On vertical surfaces, apply the detergent starting at the bottom
and work your way upward. This will prevent the detergent
from sliding down and causing streaks. High pressure rinsing
should also progress from the bottom to top. On particularly
tough stains, it may be necessary to use a brush in combina-
tion with detergents and high pressure rinsing.

Maintenance

Warning! To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn
unit off and disconnect it from power source before making
any adjustments or removing/installing attachments or acces-
sories. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
Your Black+Decker power tool has been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool
care and regular cleaning.
Cleaning
Warning! Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with clean, dry
air at least once a week.
To minimize the risk of eye injury, always wear approved eye
protection when performing this procedure.
Warning! Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals for
cleaning the non-metallic parts of the tool. These chemicals
may weaken the plastic materials used in these parts. Use a
cloth dampened only with water and mild soap. Never let any
liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into a liquid.
Nozzle Cleaning (Fig. G)
If the nozzle becomes clogged with foreign materials, such as
dirt, excessive pressure may develop. If the nozzle becomes
partially clogged or restricted, the pump pressure will pulsate.
Clean the nozzle immediately using the nozzle cleaner.
Turn OFF and unplug the pressure washer unit ( 8 ).
u
Turn OFF the water supply.
