USING THE HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE
The high-pressure hose features an outer
covering that provides strength to the hose.
If the outer covering becomes damaged,
the hose must be replaced immediately. Do
not use a high-pressure hose if the outer
covering is damaged.
To prevent damage to the outer covering:
■ Inspect the hose before every use.
■ Fully unwrap and straighten the hose
before use.
■ Do not allow the high-pressure hose to be
kinked.
■ Keep the hose away from hot surfaces and
sharp edges.
■ Do not pull the product by using the high-
pressure hose.
■ Do not allow the hose to be crushed or
wrapped around objects.
WASHING WITH DETERGENT
See pages 25 - 27.
Use only detergents designed for high
pressure cleaners. Household detergents,
acids, alkalines, bleaches, solvents,
flammable material, or industrial grade
solutions can damage the pump. Many
detergents may require mixing prior to use.
Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on
the solution bottle.
■ Remove the cap from the detergent
container and pour the detergent into the
detergent tank. Replace the detergent cap.
NOTE: The detergent ratio of the product
is set to 1:20, which usually allows the use
of 3,8 L detergent without further dilution.
Check your detergent instructions to ensure
that additional dilution is not necessary.
■ Rotate the spray selector on the 5-in-1
change-over nozzle to either the Soap
Short Range or Soap Long Range setting.
■ Spray the detergent on a dry surface using
long, even, overlapping strokes. To prevent
streaking, do not allow detergent to dry on
the surface.
