Tips for operation

The following information and examples
of application make work easier and
contribute to achieving an optimum
cleaning result.
Operating pressure and water
throughput
High pressure dissolves dirt better. The
higher the water throughput, the easier it
is to remove the dirt that has been
loosened.
Clean delicate parts and surfaces (e. g.
car paint, rubber) by applying low
pressure or at a greater distance to
avoid damage. 100 bar pressure is
sufficient for cleaning vehicles.
Nozzles
Using the fan-jet nozzle
+
All-purpose – to clean parts and
(sensitive) surfaces.
The operating pressure can be infinitely
adjusted at the fan-jet nozzle.
44
Jet angle 15°, maximum effect at a
distance of approx. 7 cm.
Applications:
Cleaning vehicles and machines
–
Cleaning floors and surfaces
–
Cleaning roofs and facades
–
Using the rotary nozzle
Nozzle with rotating jet. To remove
stubborn dirt on hard-wearing surfaces.
Maximum effect at a distance of 10 cm.
Working without nozzle
The spray attachment can also be used
without nozzles at low pressure, e. g.,
for rinsing with a large flow of water.
Cleaning very dirty surfaces
Soak extremely dirty surfaces with water
before cleaning them.
Detergents
Detergents improve the cleaning effect.
The corresponding exposure time
(dependent on the detergent used)
increases the cleaning performance.
Always use detergent in the specified
dosage and follow the corresponding
instructions for use of the detergent.
Apply the detergent starting at the
bottom and working up and do not allow
to dry.
Maximum effect at a distance of 1 m.
Mechanical cleaning
The additional use of e. g. rotary nozzles
or washing brushes helps to remove
highly adhesive layers of dirt.
