CLEANING AND USER MAINTENANCE
Pressure Washer Cleaning Tips
Cars, Boats & Motorcycles
Take care when using high-pressure setting as high-pressure can potentially damage the
finish or paint.
With Detergent: Fill detergent bottle with Car/Boat Wash (39-4579-0). Place detergent
suction tube directly into cleaning solution and apply to surface at low-pressure. For best
results, clean one side of vehicle at a time and always apply detergent from bottom to top,
do not allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high-pressure in a sweeping motion
keeping the spray nozzle approximately 6–8” (15 – 20 cm) from the cleaning surface (dis-
tance should increase when rinsing pin-striping or other sensitive surfaces). Always clean
from top to bottom and from left to right. For best results, wipe surface dry with a chamois
or soft dry cloth.
Barbecue Grills, Outdoor Power Equipment & Gardening Tools
With Detergent: Fill detergent bottle with Heavy-duty Degreaser (38-1306-2). Place deter-
gent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and apply detergent at low-pressure. Allow
degreaser to remain on surface 1–3 minutes. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface.
Rinse at high-pressure keeping the spray nozzle approximately 3–6” (7.5 – 15 cm) from the
cleaning surface. For removing extremely stubborn dirt, it may be necessary to move the
spray nozzle even closer to the surface for greater dirt cutting action.
Without Detergent: Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water and wash with water on
high-pressure using same directions as above.
Wood Patio & Lawn Furniture
With detergent: Remove all fabrics (i.e. cushions). Fill detergent bottle with Deck/Fence
Cleaner (39-4577-4). Place detergent suction tube directly into cleaning solution and apply
to surface at low pressure. Allow Pressure Wash to remain on surface 1–3 minutes. Do not
allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high pressure in a sweeping motion keeping the
spray nozzle approximately 3–6” (7.5 – 15 cm) from the cleaning surface (distance should
increase when spraying sensitive surfaces). For best results, clean from top to bottom and
from left to right.
Without detergent: Pre-rinse furniture with fresh water and wash with water on high-
pressure using same directions as above.
