WASHING WITH THE POWER SPRAYER WAND

The Power Sprayer Wand works best using Sears specially formulated concentrated detergent, which can be purchased in the Sears lawn and garden department. Follow the directions supplied with the detergent for the proper water/detergent mix ratio.

Most common household detergents are not formulated for use in your Power Sprayer Wand. They are too heavy or thick to pass through your Power Sprayer Wand and if they are diluted with water, they lose their cleaning efficiency.

NOTE: If you do not use Sears detergent, be sure the detergent you do use is specially formulated and concentrated for use with this type of equipment. Mix the chosen detergent with water (1 part detergent to 8 parts water) to reduce the viscosity (consistency or thickness) of the mixture.

1.Prepare a mixture of detergent in a 1-gallon plastic bucket or suitable container.

2.Attach the garden hose (cold or warm water), air hose, and chemical draw hose to the Power Sprayer Wand. Place the free end of the chemical draw hose into the detergent/water mixture.

3.For best performance, set your compressor to the maximum pressure available from your air compressor not to exceed 125 PSIG. Be sure the air and water controls on the Power Sprayer Wand are in the "Off" position.

4.Turn the water source fully on and turn on your air compressor.

5.Begin the washing procedure by adjusting the air control knob and the soap/chemical control knob until they begin spraying the solution onto the surface

to be washed. The water knob should be OFF. Continue spraying until the surface is completely covered with the solution.

6.To stop spraying, turn the soap/chemical control knob and the air control knob to the "Off" position.

7.Let the soap remain on the surface for about 30 seconds. A certain amount of wiping will be required for most types of foreign matter.

8.Fully open both air and water control knobs.

9.Rinse the soap and dirt from the surface you are washing.

10.When rinising or washing surfaces with an air/water mixture, the Power Sprayer Wand will pulsate under certain conditions. This is normal, especially at high air/water pressures. The pulsations indicate the air and water are mixing effectively and should improve the cleaning action of the spray.
