DEGREASING WITH THE POWER WASHER

The Power Washer works best using Sears specially _rmulated concentrateddegrease_,9.16421, which can be purchased in the Sears hardware department or from the Sears general cata!og. Follow the directions supplied with the degreaser for the proper watertdegreaser mix ratio.

Most common householddegreasers, are not formu_atecl and concentrated for use in your Power Washer. They are too heavy or thick to pass through your Power Washer and if they are dilutedwith water, they lose their degreasing efficiency,

NOTE: If you do not use Sears degreaseE;9-16421, be sure thedegreaser you do use is specially formulated

and concentrated for use with this type of equipment,

Mix the chosendegreaser with water (1 part degreaser to 4 parts water) to reduce the viscosity (consistency or thickness) of the mixture.

Do not clean a hot engine. Engine block can crack or other damage can occur. Wait unlil lhe engine has =ooled at least one hour.

Cover the battery and carburetor throat when you clean the engine,

!, Prepare a mixture of degreaser in a 1.gallon plastic buoket or suitable container.

2.Atta(_h the garden hose (cold or warm water), air hose, and chemical draw hose to the Power Washer.

Place the free end of the chemioal draw hose into the degreaser/water mixture.

3.For best degreasing performance, set your air com- pressor to the maximum pressure available from your compressor not to exceed 175 psig. Be sure the air and water controls on the power washer are inthe "Off" position.

4.Turn on your airoompressor.

5.Begin the degreasing procedure by adjusting the air control Imob and the soap/chemical controJknob until they begin spraying the solution. The water knob should be OFF. Continuespraying unlilthe sur- face is completely _overed with the solution.

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

7.Let the degreaser solution 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 the air'and water control knobs. 9, R_se the degreaser solution and dirt from the sur-

face you are degreasing.

CLEANING AND STORAGE
