Cleaning Solvents.

Chemical injection system: Mixes cleaners or cleaning solvents with water to improve cleaning effectiveness.

Choke control: Opens and closes carburetor choke valve.

CU: Cleaning Units. GPM multiplied by psi. (GPM x PSI = CU)

Fuel valve lever: Opens/closes connection between fuel tank and carburetor.

GPM*: Gallons Per Minute. The unit of measure for the flow rate of water.

PSI*: Pounds per Square Inch. The unit of measure for water pressure. Also used for air pressure, hydraulic pressure, etc.

* Complies with CETA Performance Standard CPC-100.

kPa (kilopascal): Metric pressure measurement. 1 kilopascal equal 1000 pascals.

Quick-connect spray wand: Allows the user to quickly change out high pressure nozzles. Refer to Spray
