If a high pressure water system is used for cleaning, exercise extreme caution.
The maximum pressure should not exceed 3000 PSI, 2.5 GPM with a 40°
pressure washer nozzle. Make sure to keep the pressure washer nozzle 2 ft
from the vehicle away from the surface being cleaned. The water may damage
components and could remove paint and labels. High water pressure may
damage radiator fins and impair a radiator’s effectiveness. High pressure may
also damage other vehicle components. Avoid directing the water stream at the
following items:
• Wheel bearings
• Radiator
• Transmission seals
• Brakes
• Cab and body panels
• Labels and decals
• Electrical components and wiring
• Air intake components
• Throttle and shift cables and controls
• Seat Belts
• Seats
WARNING
Spilled oil left on engine components or in the engine area may pose a fire
hazard. Use shop rags to clean any spilled oil. If needed, use a non-flammable
solvent on the rag to aid in the cleaning process. Do not use any device such
as a pressurized water or air as this may disperse the oil onto engine
components and could pose a fire hazard.
WARNING
Clean seat belts with warm water. Avoid damaging seat belts:
• Do not use bleach, dye or household detergents.
• Never use lubricant on any seat belt component.
• Do not use a pressure washer to clean the seat belts.
