CLEANING TIPS

 

 

CAUTION

     Before cleaning any surface, an inconspicu-

ous area should be cleaned to test spray 
pattern and distance for maximum cleaning 
results.

     If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping, 

use extreme caution as pressure washer may 
remove the loose paint from the surface.

     When using on surfaces which might come in 

contact with food, fl ush surfaces with plenty 
of drinking water.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse deck and 

surrounding area with fresh water. If using deter-

gent, apply to surface at low pressure. For best 

results, limit your work area to smaller sections of 

approximately 25 sq. ft. (2.3 m²). Allow detergent 

to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow 

detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high pres-

sure in a long sweeping motion, keeping the spray 

nozzle approximately 3-6 in. (7.5-15 cm) from the 

cleaning surface. Always clean from top to bottom 

and from left to right. When moving on to a new 

section of the cleaning surface, be sure to overlap 

the previous section to eliminate stop marks and 

ensure a more even cleaning result.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning 

surface with fresh water. If using detergent, apply 

to surface at low pressure. For best results, limit 

your work area to sections of approximately 6 ft. 

(1.8 m) and always apply detergent from bottom 

to top. Allow detergent to remain on surface 1-3 

minutes. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface. 

If surface appears to be drying, simply wet down 

surface with fresh water. If needed, use special 

rotating wash brush (not included) to remove 

stubborn dirt. Rinse at high pressure from top to 

bottom in an even sweeping motion, keeping the 

spray nozzle approximately 6 ft. (1.8 m) from the 

cleaning surface.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning 

surface with fresh water. If using detergent or 

degreaser, apply to surface at low pressure. For 

best results, limit your work area to smaller sections 

of approximately 25 sq. ft. (2.3 m²). Allow detergent 

or degreaser 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 in. (7.5 - 15 cm) from the 

cleaning surface. Always clean from top to bottom 

and from left to right. For removing extremely stub-

born stains, use the Dirtblaster ® Nozzle.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse vehicle with 

fresh water. If using detergent, 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. If needed, use a rotating wash brush (not 

included) to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at high 

pressure in a sweeping motion, keeping the spray 

nozzle approximately 6-8 in. (15-20 cm) from the 

cleaning surface (distance 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.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning 

surface with fresh water. If using detergent or 

degreaser, apply at low pressure. Allow detergent 

or degreaser to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do 

not allow detergent or degreaser to dry on surface. 

Rinse at high pressure, keeping the spray nozzle 

approximately 3-6 in. (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.
