Function of the Spray Nozzle
The MEG 1170 spray nozzle helps:
- Produce a 0° high-pressure solid stream
- Deliver maximum cleaning force to targeted areas
- Remove stubborn dirt, grease, oil, mud, and hardened buildup efficiently
- Provide precise, concentrated cleaning performance
- Maintain proper operating pressure and flow
- Deliver dependable OEM cleaning performance
Its 0° solid stream spray pattern is designed for concentrated cleaning on concrete, heavy equipment, construction machinery, agricultural equipment, industrial equipment, and other durable surfaces requiring maximum cleaning force.
Common Signs Replacement Is Needed
Replace the nozzle if you notice:
- Uneven or distorted spray stream
- Reduced cleaning performance
- Worn or enlarged orifice
- Corrosion or physical damage
- Pressure loss caused by nozzle wear
- Inconsistent spray performance
Replacing a worn nozzle restores proper spray pattern, operating pressure, and cleaning efficiency.
Installation & Service Notes
Turn off the pressure washer and relieve system pressure before changing nozzles.
Apply an appropriate thread sealant if required and install the 1/4" male NPT nozzle securely into a compatible spray wand or lance.
Tighten securely without overtightening.
Inspect the threaded connection regularly for leaks or wear.
Important: Match the 2.0 orifice size to your pressure washer's GPM and PSI specifications to maintain proper operating pressure and flow. The 0° solid stream delivers the highest concentration of cleaning force and should only be used on durable surfaces. Exercise extreme caution when cleaning painted finishes, vehicles, wood, glass, siding, or other delicate materials, as the concentrated spray may cause damage.
Maintenance Recommendations
- Flush the nozzle with clean water after each use.
- Inspect the hardened stainless steel orifice regularly for wear or mineral buildup.
- Clean clogged nozzles using an approved nozzle cleaning tool—never use wire or sharp objects that may damage the precision orifice.
- Inspect the threaded connection for wear or damage.
- Store the nozzle in a clean, dry location when not in use.
- Use only genuine OEM MEG replacement nozzles to maintain proper spray pattern, operating pressure, and long-term performance.
