4. Käyttöohjeet
Ennen aloittamista varmista, että kaikki liitännät ovat tiukasti kiinni ja vesijohto on päällä.
- Puhdistusilma: Squeeze the trigger on the spray gun to allow water to flow through the system and expel any trapped air. Continue until a steady stream of water emerges.
- Käynnistä moottori: Turn the pressure washer's power switch to the "ON" position. The motor will start and build pressure.
- Adjust Nozzle (Vario Nozzle): If using the Vario nozzle, twist it to adjust the spray pattern from a wide fan to a concentrated jet, or to a low-pressure setting for detergent application.
- Using the Turbo Nozzle: The Turbo nozzle provides a rotating jet for aggressive cleaning of tough dirt on hard surfaces. Do not use on delicate surfaces.
- Foam Cannonin käyttäminen:
- Fill the foam cannon reservoir with appropriate pressure washer detergent.
- Attach the foam cannon to the spray gun.
- Apply detergent to the surface at low pressure. Allow it to soak as recommended by the detergent manufacturer.
- Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water using a high-pressure nozzle.
- Puhdistustekniikat:
- Aloita puhdistus aina etäältä ja siirry tarvittaessa lähemmäs pintaa vaurioiden välttämiseksi.
- Work from top to bottom to allow gravity to assist in rinsing away dirt and detergent.
- For vehicles, use a wide fan spray and avoid directing the jet directly at sensitive components like tires, mirrors, or electrical parts.
