SIPHONING

We do not recommend that you siphon your water supply from sources other than from connecting to household water supply for the following reasons:

•The pump's lifting capability is only a 3-foot maximum vertical heighL

•You need an extra intake water filter'

•You need to use a rigid intake hose (it cannot co!lapse)_

°intake water cannot contain any mixture of detergent or chemicals_ This could affect the life of the pumF

TIPS

•Initially clean an area and then check the surface for damage, if no damage is found, you can assume it is okay to continue cleaning. Detergents work best when applied to dry surface.

°For most effective cleaning, keep spray nozzle be- tween 8 to 24 inches of cleaning surface..

•Allow the detergent to soak in between 3-5 minutes before washing and rinsing.

•For'cleaning, start at lower-portion of area to be washed

and work upward, using long, even overlapping strokes.

°For rinsing, push the nozzle sleeve to high pressure and wait for detergent to clear. Start at the top of area to be rinsed, working down with the same action as for' cleaning.

°Never use the garden hose inlet to siphon detergent or

wax.

°If you get the spray nozzle too close, especially using

high pressure mode, you may damage the cleaning surface.

°If you have the spray nozzle too fat away, the cleaning will not be as effective.

•Do not get closer than 6 inches when cleaning automo- bile tires.
