Default Wickes 160 bar pressure washer

Following posts on this site I have acquired the above. Spent a happy
hour this afternoon assembling it. I have followed the instructions,
with a little difficulty. Having used up all the screws and the washer I
assume I have it right. However I have 4 items left over, none of which
I can find reference to on the instructions and diagrams.
1)A question mark shaped item of thick wire (for cleaning the nozzle
perhaps?)
2) An cylindrical hard plastic piece with a projection on the long
side with a slot at the bottom.
3) Another hard plastic piece like a distorted U, again with a slot on
the long side.
4) Another much larger hard plastic U, but more complex and number
40080785 stamped on the inside.
Any help appreciated.

They sound like things to hold lances & things. Picky?

Thanks, yes they are. Having had a thought overnight I looked at the
pretty pictures on the box, from that I was able to sort out where they
clipped on. No mention in the instructions though!
