CLEANING Techniques
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks can be completed
with water alone,but for most tasks it is advantageous to use a detergent.
A detergent ensures a quick soaking of the dirt allowing the high-pressure
water to penetrate and remove the dirt more effectively.
The low-pressure position provides a gentle application of detergent.
This position is also recommended to rinse a surface after wax application or
for other applications that require the low-pressure of a garden hose.
Low-pressure is the equivalent of a garden hose set at the lowest output to
properly apply detergent.
APPLICATION OF DETERGENT
1. Apply the solution to a DRY work surface. NOTE: WETTING THE
SURFACE FIRST IS NOT RECOMMENDED, AS IT DILUTES THE
DETERGENT AND REDUCES ITS CLEANING ABILITY.
On a vertical surface, apply horizontally form side to side starting from the
bottom to avoid streaking.
2. Allow detergent to remain on the surface for a short time before rinsing.
CAUTION: Damage may occur to painted surface if chemical is allowed to
dry on the surface. Wash and rinse a small section at a time. Avoid working
on hot surfaces or in direct sunlight.
3. Rinse with clean water under high-pressure. On a vertical surface,
first rinse from the bottom up, then rinse from the top down. Hold nozzle 6-8″
from the work surface at a 45°angle using the flat spray as a peeling tool
rather than a scrub brush.
NOTE: Ensure that the detergent injection system is completely clean prior
to switching from one detergent to another.
