•
Using pressure washer increases washing effectiveness, but particular care must
be taken during work. During washing, washer nozzle may not be closer than 50
cm from the surface being cleaned.
•
Water temperature shall not exceed 55°C.
•
Do not direct water jets at system elements and equipment of the trailer i.e.
control valve, braking force regulator, brake cylinders, hydraulic cylinders,
pneumatic, electric and hydraulic plugs, lights, electrical connections, information
and warning decals, identification plate, conduit connections, lubrication points,
leaf springs and drawbar shock absorber, etc. High pressure water jets may get
inside the machine and cause mechanical damage or corrosion.
•
For cleaning and maintenance of plastic coated surfaces it is recommended to
use clean water or special preparations designed for this purpose.
•
Do not apply organic solvents, preparations of unknown origin or other
substances, which may cause damage to lacquered, rubber or plastic surfaces. In
the event of doubt it is recommended to make a test on an unseen surface area.
•
Surfaces smeared with oil or grease should be cleaned by application of benzene
or other degreasing agents and then washed with clean water with added
detergent. Comply with recommendations of the Manufacturer.
•
Washing detergent should be kept in original containers, optionally in replacement
containers, but very clearly marked. Preparations may not be stored in food and
drink containers.
•
Unsure cleanliness of elastic conduits and seals. The plastic from which these
elements are made may be susceptible to organic substances and some
detergents. As a result of long-term reaction of some substances, the ageing
process may be accelerated and risk of damage increased. Rubber elements
should be maintained with the aid of special preparations after previous thorough
washing.
