Detergents
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce cleaning time
and assist in the removal of difficult stains. Some detergents
have been customized for pressure washer use on specific
cleaning tasks. These detergents are approximately as thick
as water. The use of thicker detergents, such as dish soap,
will clog the chemical injection system and prevent the
application of the detergent.
The cleaning power of detergents comes from applying
them to a surface and giving the chemicals time to break
down the dirt and grime. Detergents work best when
applied at low pressure.
The combination of chemical action and high pressure
rinsing is very effective. On vertical surfaces, apply the
detergent starting at the bottom and work your way
upward. This will prevent the detergent from sliding down
and causing streaks. High pressure rinsing should also
progress from the bottom to top. On particularly tough
stains, it may be necessary to use a brush in combination
with detergents and high pressure rinsing.
Operation
1. The lance is affected by pressure during operation;
therefore hold it firmly with both hands and point the
nozzle toward the ground.
2. Activate by pulling the trigger of the gun / spray handle.
3. Adjust the distance to the cleaning surface, which will
also adjust your pressure of the nozzle.
4. Spray pattern shape and intensity can be changed by
twisting the spray adjuster at the end of the lance. Keep
hands clear of the front of the lance to prevent injury.
See Figure 6.
