The following information and examples
of application make work easier and
contribute to achieving an optimum
cleaning result.
Operating pressure and water
throughput
High pressure dissolves dirt better. The
higher the water throughput, the easier it
is to remove the dirt that has been
loosened.
Clean delicate parts and surfaces (e. g.
car paint, rubber) by applying low
pressure or at a greater distance to
avoid damage. 100 bar pressure is
sufficient for cleaning vehicles.
Nozzles
Fan-jet nozzle
All-purpose – to clean parts and
(sensitive) surfaces.
Applications:
–
Cleaning vehicles and machines
–
Cleaning floors and surfaces
–
Cleaning roofs and facades
Rotary nozzle
To remove stubborn dirt on hard-
wearing surfaces.
Extremely dirty surfaces
Soak extremely dirty surfaces with water
before cleaning them.
Detergents:
The cleaning effect can be improved by
using detergents. The corresponding
exposure time (dependent on the
detergent used) increases the cleaning
performance.
Do not allow the detergent to dry.
Always use detergent in the specified
dosage and follow the corresponding
instructions for use of the detergent.
Mechanical cleaning:
The additional use of e. g. rotary nozzles
or washing brushes helps to remove
highly adhesive layers of dirt.
