The surest way to avoid damaging surfaces is to follow
these steps:
1. Before triggering the gun, adjust the nozzle to a wide
fan pattern.
2. Place the nozzle approximately 4-5 feet from and 45
degrees to the cleaning surface, and trigger the gun.
3. Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the distance to
the cleaning surface until optimum cleaning ef ciency
is achieved without damaging the surface.
TURBO NOZZLE
(NOT INCLUDED WITH ALL MODELS)
A turbo nozzle, sometimes referred to as a rotary noz-
zle, is a very effective tool that can signi cantly reduce
cleaning time. The turbo nozzle combines the power of
a narrow high impact stream and the ef ciency of a 25
degree fan pattern. This swirls the narrow high impact
stream into a cone shape that cleans a larger area.
CAUTION: Since a turbo nozzle uses a narrow high
impact stream, only use it in applications where the
cleaning surface cannot be damaged by narrow high
impact spray. Additionally, the turbo nozzle is NOT ad-
justable and cannot be used to apply detergent.
DETERGENTS
The use of detergents can dramatically reduce clean-
ing time and assist in the removal of dif cult stains.
Some detergents have been customized for pressure
washer use on speci c cleaning tasks. These deter-
gents 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 apply-
ing 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 up-
ward. 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 combina-
tion with detergents and high pressure rinsing.
OPERATION
The following cleaning procedure will help you to or-
ganize your cleaning task, and ensure that you achieve
the most bene cial results in the shortest amount of
time.
Remember to use the spraying/cleaning techniques
previously listed.
1. Surface preparation
Before starting a pressure wash cleaning job, it is im-
portant to prepare the surface that is to be cleaned.
This is done by cleaning the area of furniture, and mak-
ing sure that all windows and doors are closed tight. In
addition, you should make sure that all plants and trees
adjacent to the cleaning area are protected by a drop
cloth. This will ensure that your plants won’t be sprayed
by the detergents.
2. Initial High Pressure Rinse
The next step is to spray the cleaning surface with wa-
• Separate lance from gun.
Rotate nozzle to the narrow stream setting. This
opens up the fan blades.
Using included tip cleaner, or an unfolded paper clip,
insert wire into the nozzle hole and move back and
forth until debris is dislodged. (See Figure 5.)
Figure 5 - Insert tip cleaner in nozzle hole and move
back and forth until debris is dislodged
Remove additional debris by back- ushing water
through the nozzle. To do this, place end of a garden
hose ( with water running ) to end of nozzle for 30-60
seconds.
ANGLE TO THE CLEANING SURFACE
When spraying water against a surface, maximum im-
pact is generated when the water strikes the surface
“head on.” However, this type of impact tends to cause
dirt particles to imbed in the surface, thereby prevent-
ing the desired cleaning action.
The optimum angle for spraying water against a clean-
ing surface if 45 degrees.
Figure 6 - Optimum angle to cleaning surface
Spraying water against a surface at this angle provides
for the most bene cial impact force combined with ef-
cient removal of debris from the surface.
DISTANCE FROM CLEANLING SURFACE
Another factor that determines the impact force of
the water is the distance from the spray nozzle to the
cleaning surface. The impact force of the water is in-
creased as the nozzle is moved closer to the surface.
HOW TO AVOID DAMAGING SURFACES
Damage to cleaning surfaces occurs because the im-
pact force of the water exceeds the durability of the sur-
face. The impact force can be varied by controlling the
three previously noted items. Never use a narrow high
impact stream or a turbo/rotary nozzle on a surface that
is susceptible to damage. Avoid spraying windows with
a narrow high impact stream or turbo nozzle as this
may cause breakage.
