How to use

Attach a compatible 18V LXT battery to the tool following the manufacturer’s instructions, connect a suitable water supply hose and select the appropriate nozzle or pressure setting for the surface to be cleaned. Start the unit and maintain a safe distance from delicate surfaces, moving the nozzle in steady, overlapping passes to remove dirt. Reduce pressure for painted surfaces or fragile materials and increase for hard surfaces like concrete. After use, switch the unit off, disconnect the battery and water supply, and drain residual water from the hose and pump before storing.
