Pressure Washer noob question...

[civic_stylez]

I just picked up a 2.4GPM 2500PSI gas powered pressure washer from Princess Auto on the weekend and Id like to run detergent through it. The washer came with a clear suction hose with a filter on the end and I picked up a 4l jug of phosphate free detergent. QUESTION: The jug claims i need to mix/dilute the detergent with water. Can I just put the hose right into the jug and draw from it or do I need to premix it and draw from a bucket? The manual doesnt specify and I just want to avoid damaging anything on the pump.

Thx!

I always just stick the suction tube in the soap and wash away.

If you are worried, just make sure you run water through the pump before you put it away.
