CLEANING TIPS

Deck Cleaning
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse deck and surrounding area with
fresh water. If using Kärcher Deck and Patio
Cleaner, place detergent suction tube directly
into cleaning solution and apply to surface at
low pressure. For best results, limit your work
area to smaller sections of approximately 25
square feet. Allow Kärcher Deck and Patio
Cleaner to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do
not allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at
high pressure in a long sweeping motion
keeping the spray nozzle approximately 3-6
inches from the cleaning surface. Always
clean from top to bottom and from left to right.
When moving on to a new section of the
cleaning surface, be sure to overlap the
previous section to eliminate stop marks and
ensure a more even cleaning result.
Caution: Do not use rotary spray wand on
wood surfaces as it may cause damage.
House Siding
(with or without detergent)
Pre-rinse cleaning surface with fresh water. If
using Kärcher House or Window and Siding
Cleaner, place detergent suction tube directly
into cleaning solution and apply to surface at
low pressure (for best results, limit your work
area to sections of approximately 6 feet and
always apply detergent from bottom to top).
Allow Kärcher House or Window and Siding
Cleaner to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do
not allow detergent to dry on surface, if
surface appears to be drying, simply wet down
surface with fresh water. If needed, use
special Wash Brush Attachment to remove
stubborn dirt. Rinse at high pressure from top
to bottom in an even sweeping motion keeping
the spray nozzle approximately 6 inches from
the cleaning surface.
Caution: Do not use rotary spray wand on
