Prior to Starting:
•
Read and understand all warnings before operating euipment.
•
Connect standard garden hose to water inlet. Hose must have minimum 5/8 inch diameter. Maximum 50 Ft.
length is recommended. Water source must deliver 3.5 gallons per minute either through pressurized system
of public utility or similar system or through gravity feed from unpressurized holding tank. Never allow
pump to run dry or semi-dry.
•
Connect high pressure hose, gunjet, wand assembly to high pressure outlet. Failure to properly lock quick
coupler sleeve may result in “blow-out” and loss of quick coupler O-ring.
•
Turn water supply fully on.
•
Open fuel valve on engine. Turn ignition switch on (if so equipped). Set choke and throttle controls.
•
Operate control handle (gun) by squeezing trigger and hold until continuous flow of water emerges.
•
Turn pressure adjustment knob fully counterclockwise.
3.
Cover outdoor light and electrical fixtures with plastic bags.
4.
Protect flush receptacles with plastic tape. Be sure they are watertight.
5.
Note location of vent openings. (Eaves & crawl spaces often have vent openings). Do not spray into these
openings.
6.
Protect landscape with plastic covers. This helps in clean up.
(Especially helpful when using chemicals and when blasting off paint).
7.
General washing technique is started from the highest point. When working from a ladder make sure it is
sturdy and position the ladder so you are spraying away from yourself. Never spray directly overhead. Be
prepared for the initial “kick” that is caused by the high pressure spray.
8.
Start flushing debris out of gutters. Use a 15 degree nozzle about 3 feet away.
9.
Wash underhang portion of soffit throughly, spraying from a distance of 12" to 18".
10.
When cleaning the sides of your house work from the top to the bottom using overlapping strokes. If using
chemicals or soap apply solution from bottom to top and then rinse from the top to the bottom.
11.
When cleaning around windows, approach it cautiously. If panes are not secure or not well caulked they can
break from the impact of the high pressure spray. Use a wider nozzle, start from a distance and approach
cautiously.
PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE WASHING OR REPAINTING YOUR HOSE
1.
Please read all safety warnings.
2.
If walls are badly stained, mildewed or soiled, detergents and the Airlessco Chemical Injector are recommended.
A strong cleanser or tri-sodium phosphate works well to remove stains. Bleaches help to kill mildew.
USERS GUIDE
USING THE AIRLESSCO CHEMICAL INJECTOR
●The chemical injector will draw the detergent. It is adjustable for the required ratio.
●Wash from the BOTTOM to the TOP so the solution is continually being rewetted and
allows the chemical to work.
●Rinse from the TOP to the BOTTOM before the chemical dries.
