CLEANING TIPS

• For best results, the high-pressure lance should be
held between 6"-24" away from the surface being
cleaned. Holding the wand too close to the surface
may damage the object being cleaned. On the other
hand, if the lance is too far away, optimum cleaning
results will not be achieved. It´s always best to test
the surface first to see if damage occurs when the
lance is held too close.
• When cleaning car tires, the nozzle should be held
at least 6" from the surface to avoid damage.
• Apply detergent at low pressure from the bottom up
and pressure wash at high pressure from the top
down.
• Always apply detergent to a dry surface and allow
1-3 minutes dwell time.
• To be environmentally safe,
- cleaning engines is only recommended where a
suitable oil seperator is provided.
- clean facades, terraces and garden equipment
with the high-pressure jet alone, without cleaning
agent.
Note: With special accessories (not included) it can
also be used for such jobs as removing rust and
paint, for cleaning pipes, for pumping water and for
applying plant protection chemicals. These items
are avaiable from most SEARS RETAIL OUTLETS.
