2.Place the nozzle approximately 4-5 feet
from and 45 degrees to the cleaning
surface, and trigger the gun.
3. Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the
distance to the cleaning surface until
optimum cleaning efficiency is achieved
without damaging the surface.
TURBO NOZZLE (NOT INCLUDED WITH
ALL MODELS)
A turbo nozzle, sometimes referred to as a
rotary nozzle, is a very effective tool that
can significantly reduce cleaning time. The
turbo nozzle combines the power of a
narrow high impact stream and the
efficiency of a 25 degree fan pattern. This
swirls the narrow high impact stream into a
cone shape that cleans a larger area.
CAUTION:
Since a turbo nozzle uses a
narrow high impact stream, only use it in
applications where the cleaning surface
cannot be damaged by narrow high impact
spray. Additionally, the turbo nozzle is NOT
adjustable and cannot be used to apply
detergent.
DETERGENTS
The use of detergents can dramatically
reduce cleaning time and assist in the
removal of difficult stains. Some detergents
have been customized for pressure washer
use on specific cleaning tasks. These
detergents are approximately as thick as
water. The use of thicker detergents, such
as dish soap, will clog the chemical injection
system and prevent the application of the
detergent.
The cleaning power of detergents comes
from applying them to a surface and giving
the chemicals time to break down the dirt
and grime. Detergents work best when
applied at low pressure.
The combination of chemical action and
high pressure rinsing is very effective. On
vertical surfaces, apply the detergent
starting at the bottom and work your way
upward. This will prevent the detergent from
sliding down and causing streaks. High
pressure rinsing should also progress from
the bottom to top. On particularly tough
stains, it may be necessary to use a brush
in combination with detergents and high
pressure rinsing.
