■ Before cleaning any surface, an inconspicu-
ous area should be cleaned to test spray
pattern and distance for maximum cleaning
results.
■ If painted surfaces are peeling or chipping,
use extreme caution as pressure washer may
remove the loose paint from the surface.
■ When using on surfaces which might come in
contact with food, fl ush surfaces with plenty
of drinking water.

(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse deck and
surrounding area with fresh water. If using deter-
gent, apply to surface at low pressure. For best
results, limit your work area to smaller sections of
approximately 25 sq. ft. (2.3 m²). Allow detergent
to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow
detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high pres-
sure in a long sweeping motion, keeping the spray
nozzle approximately 3-6 in. (7.5-15 cm) 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.
(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning
surface with fresh water. If using detergent, apply
to surface at low pressure. For best results, limit
your work area to sections of approximately 6 ft.
(1.8 m) and always apply detergent from bottom
to top. Allow detergent 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
rotating wash brush (not included) to remove
stubborn dirt. Rinse at high pressure from top to
bottom in an even sweeping motion, keeping the
spray nozzle approximately 6 ft. (1.8 m) from the
cleaning surface.
(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning
surface with fresh water. If using detergent or
degreaser, apply to surface at low pressure. For
best results, limit your work area to smaller sections
of approximately 25 sq. ft. (2.3 m²). Allow detergent
or degreaser to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do
not allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high
pressure in a sweeping motion, keeping the spray
nozzle approximately 3-6 in. (7.5 - 15 cm) from the
cleaning surface. Always clean from top to bottom
and from left to right. For removing extremely stub-
born stains, use the Dirtblaster ® Nozzle.
(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse vehicle with
fresh water. If using detergent, apply to surface at
low pressure. For best results, clean one side of
vehicle at a time and always apply detergent from
bottom to top. Do not allow detergent to dry on
surface. If needed, use a rotating wash brush (not
included) to remove stubborn dirt. Rinse at high
pressure in a sweeping motion, keeping the spray
nozzle approximately 6-8 in. (15-20 cm) from the
cleaning surface (distance should increase when
rinsing pin-striping or other sensitive surfaces).
Always clean from top to bottom and from left
to right. For best results, wipe surface dry with a
chamois or soft dry cloth.
(with or without detergent) Pre-rinse cleaning
surface with fresh water. If using detergent or
degreaser, apply at low pressure. Allow detergent
or degreaser to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do
not allow detergent or degreaser to dry on surface.
Rinse at high pressure, keeping the spray nozzle
approximately 3-6 in. (7.5-15 cm) from the cleaning
surface. For removing extremely stubborn dirt, it
may be necessary to move the spray nozzle even
closer to the surface for greater dirt cutting action.
