T
he Surface Cleaning System you have purchased
connects directly to your high pressure hose and
pressure washer by means of quick couplers, operating
to a maximum of 4000 PSI. Please note that the 12"
Whirl-A-Way connects directly to a 1/4" quick connect
coupler, operating to a maximum of 2500PSI.
This Whirl-a-Way is designed to operate with both hot &
cold water pressure washers up to 180°F.
We recommend that you supply grease to the rotary head
every 30 – 40 hours of use. Simply add a small squirt of
automotive grease, do not overfill with grease as it will
bog down the rotary head.
During operation, should you experience a buildup of
small stones or other foreign material within the cover,
we recommend that you simply tip the cleaner on its side
at 45° which should expel any foreign materials. This
will give longer wear to your tips and swivel arm, nozzles
and brush skirt (if applicable).
The tips that have been installed on your surface cleaning
system permit the use of your cleaner with a pressure
washer producing up to 7 GPM at 4000 PSI. Please note
that the 12" Whirl-A-Way can only be used with a pressure
washer producing up to 2500 PSI. Periodically check the
tips to ensure they are not plugged by dirt particles. As
this can cause the rotary arm to stop spinning. Or stripping
to be left on the surface being cleaned.
It is very important when operating your Whirl-a-Way,
that you maintain a continuous motion to ensure an even
clean. The distance of the nozzle tips from the surface
can be adjusted by loosening the bolt on the rotary head
mounting collar and adjusting the rotary head up or down.
Be certain the allen head bolt is tightened again to prevent
the rotary head from moving during operation. Please
ensure that your rotary head is adjusted to maintain a
minimum of 1” clearance between the spray tips and the
surface being cleaned.
