How To Avoid Damaging Surfaces

Damage to cleaning surfaces occurs because the impact force of the water exceeds the durability of the surface. Never use a narrow high impact stream or a turbo/rotary nozzle on a surface that is susceptible to damage. Avoid spraying windows with a narrow high impact stream or turbo nozzle as this may cause damage. To avoid possible damage follow these three steps:

1.Before triggering the gun, adjust the nozzle to a wide fan pattern.

2.Place the nozzle approximately 4-5 feet from and 45 degrees to the cleaning surface, and trigger the gun.

3.Vary the fan pattern spray angle and the distance to the cleaning surface until optimum cleaning efficiency is achieved without damaging the surface.

CAUTION: Car paintwork / bodywork and other surfaces can be damaged by the high pressure jet, in particular, caution should be taken with new, damaged or unsecured paint. Damage is not covered by the warranty.
