SIPHONING
Water
We do not recommend that you siphon your water supply
from sources other than from connecting
to household
water supply for the following reasons:
•
The pump's lifting capability is only a 3-foot maximum
vertical heighL
•
You need an extra intake water filter'
•
You need to use a rigid intake hose (it cannot co!lapse)_
°
intake water cannot contain any mixture of detergent
or chemicals_ This could affect the life of the pumF
TIPS
•
Initially clean an area and then check the surface for
damage,
if no damage is found, you can assume it is
okay to continue cleaning. Detergents work best when
applied to dry surface.
°
For most effective cleaning,
keep spray nozzle be-
tween 8 to 24 inches of cleaning surface..
•
Allow the detergent to soak in between 3-5 minutes
before washing and rinsing.
•
For' cleaning, start at lower-portion of area to be washed
and work upward,
using
long,
even overlapping
strokes.
°
For rinsing, push the nozzle sleeve to high pressure
and wait for detergent to clear. Start at the top of area
to be rinsed, working down with the same action as for'
cleaning.
°
Never use the garden hose inlet to siphon detergent or
wax.
°
If you get the spray nozzle too close, especially using
high pressure mode, you may damage
the cleaning
surface.
°
If you have the spray nozzle too fat away, the cleaning
will not be as effective.
•
Do not get closer than 6 inches when cleaning automo-
bile tires.
