3.0 Cleaning Nozzles
There are up to five different quick connect nozzle spray tips, four high pressure and
one low pressure “Soap” nozzle. The operator can select a high pressure nozzle
spray pattern which best suits the cleaning application.
THE BLASTER: (RED)
Provides a concentrated spot of high pressure water allowing you to be
further from the surface being cleaned and to blast off stubborn material.
USE CAUTION with this nozzle as the force available will actually pen-
etrate soft materials or surfaces. Use for reaching high areas such as
under eaves. Cleaning tar, chewing gum etc. from sidewalks. Breaking
up large areas of loose paint to allow stripping nozzle to get under sur-
face. Removing excess mortar from brick construction. Removing rust
flakes from steel.
THE STRIPPER: (YELLOW)
Provides a narrow fan of concentrated water pressure for removing paint,
mildew, etc. By testing several angles between the spray and the surface
being worked, the best angle may quickly be identified. Use to remove
loose paint from wood, masonry, metal, etc. Remove heavy oxidation,
mildew, and marine growth from boats, etc. Clean heavy equipment.
THE CLEANER (GREEN)
Provides a wider fan for pressure cleaning and rinsing. Use for removing
mildew, light to medium oxidation, and dirt from aluminum siding. Rinse
stripped areas. General light cleaning in preparation for painting.

light cleaning, rinsing off chemicals used in building restoration, and sweep-
ing driveways and parking areas.
