2. Usando boquillas de conexión rápida:

   The YF1800LR comes with various quick-connect nozzles for different cleaning tasks:

   • 15° Nozzle (Yellow): For intense cleaning of hard surfaces like concrete and brick.
   • 40° Nozzle (White): For general cleaning of larger areas, such as siding, decks, and vehicles.
   • Boquilla de xabón (negra): For applying detergent.
   • Turbo Nozzle (Bonus): Provides a rotating stream for aggressive cleaning of stubborn stains.

   To change nozzles, turn off the pressure washer and ensure no pressure remains in the system by squeezing the trigger. Pull back the collar on the spray wand, insert the new nozzle, and release the collar to lock it in place.
