WINTERIZING AND LONG-TERM STORAGE

1:Disconnect all water connections.

2:Turn on the machine for a few seconds, until the water which had remained in the pump exits, turn off immediately.

3:Do not allow high pressure hose to become kinked.

4:Store the machine and accessories in a room which does not reach freezing tem- peratures. DO NOT store near furnace or other sources of heat as it may dry the pump seals.

CLEANING TIPS

Deck Cleaning

 

House Siding

(with or without detergent). Pre-rinse deck and surrounding area with fresh water. If using Kärcher Deck Wash, apply to surface at low pressure. For best results, limit your work area to smaller sec- tions of approximately 25 square feet. Allow Deck Wash to remain on surface 1-3 minutes. Do not allow detergent to dry on surface. Rinse at high pressure in a long sweeping motion keeping the spray nozzle approximately 3-6 inches from the cleaning surface. Always clean from top to bottom and from left to right. When moving on to a new section of the cleaning surface, be sure to overlap the previous section to eliminate stop marks and ensure a more even cleaning result.
