Using the Nerf Super Soaker Power Drench Blaster is easy. First, you'll need to attach a hose to the easy - fill station. There's an adapter included if you need it. Then, place the blaster on the easy - fill station. Make sure you have a static water pressure of at least 27psi. The station will quickly fill the blaster and pressurize it. Once it's ready, just pull the trigger to send powerful pulse bursts of water at your friends. Remember, don't aim the blaster at anyone's eyes or face. Also, be aware that small parts may be generated. As for maintenance, keep the blaster dry when not in use and store it in a cool place. This will help it last longer and keep performing well during your water battles.
