ENGLISH
Preparing the surface
- Clear the area of furniture and check that windows and doors are securely closed.
Also make sure that plants and trees near the area to be cleaned are protected with a cloth.
-
Initial high-pressure rinse
Spray the area to be cleaned with water to clean any dirt that may have accumulated on the
surface. Before pressing the trigger, move the spray nozzle to the spray mode position and
progressively move it to the desired spray position. In this way, you will avoid applying an
excessively direct jet on more delicate surfaces.
Use of soap
Water and soap must be used with these percentages: 5.4% soap, 94.6% water (1:19).
Warning
Use only soaps designed for pressure washers.
Fig. 9
- Test the soap in an inconspicuous place before using the product.
Loosen the cap of the soap bottle and fill it with water and soap.
-
Replace the cover.
-
- Disassemble the wand from the gun.
- Install the soap bottle in the gun. Fig. 10
Apply soap in a manner that it covers all the surface to be cleaned. Apply it from bottom to
-
top to avoid soap from falling down and staining the surface.
- Leave the soap to act on the surface for several minutes. However, in particularly soiled
areas, use a brush to gently scrub. Do not allow soap to dry on the surface.
Remove the soap bottle from the gun and replace it with the wand, or simply remove it
-
from the end of the wand.
- Rinse the soap from the surface.
Warning
Rinse the soap bottle with clean water after every use.
Final rinse
Start the final rinse from bottom to top. Make sure that the surface is well rinsed and that all
dirt has been removed.
Turning off
Make sure there is no detergent in the system.
-
Turn off the motor.
-
- Turn off the water supply.
