Pressue washer to clean hardiplank concrete board siding...?

pressure washer nozzle tips image

Richard M

I am going to try to clean the outside of my home using a pressure washer I just bought at Lowes (3000 psi Troy Bilt). Any tips?

My house is painted concrete board (hardiplank) with painted wood trim. I am planning on using the recommended detergent and following the instructions, but if there is any one out there that could offer a few tips, I would really appreciate it!

Answer
I'm not sure what type of gun you have. if it is the type you can change nozzles in you need to put in the soap nozzle if it is not that type you need to pull out on the pressure tip end it should slide out to lower the pressure and start the suction for the soap. When all else fails read the directions or if you are like me and cant find the directions go back to where you bought it and ask what to do.
Good luck
